UPDATE 08/20/2020
Using #uhamid answer as inspiration, along with several comments below, indicating this is in fact possible, I revised my first attempt to provide a complete solution.
Although Umair Hamid example below is functional, it did not include the styling required. It also leveraged ngDoCheck which introduces recursive type behavior and is likely to introduce performance issues.
I also refactored most of the logic to make for a more complete solution.
Use it like:
<mat-paginator style-paginator showFirstLastButtons [showTotalPages]="3" [length]="7130" [pageSize]="10" [pageSizeOptions]="[5, 10, 25, 100]"> </mat-paginator>
Provide page buttons to display as input [showTotalPages], if not provided it will default to 2

With the help of #Marshal, I have created a directive for pagination with dot gap.
Copy this code in your directive
import {
AfterViewInit,
Directive,
DoCheck,
Host,
Optional,
Renderer2,
Self,
ViewContainerRef,
} from '#angular/core';
import { MatPaginator } from '#angular/material';
#Directive({
selector: '[appStylePaginator]',
})
export class StylePaginatorDirective implements AfterViewInit, DoCheck {
public currentPage = 1;
public directiveLoaded = false;
public pageGapTxt = '...';
constructor(
#Host() #Self() #Optional() private readonly matPag: MatPaginator,
private readonly vr: ViewContainerRef,
private readonly ren: Renderer2,
) {}
private buildPageNumbers(pageCount, pageRange) {
let dots = false;
const paglast = pageCount;
const pagcurrent = this.matPag.pageIndex;
const showTotalPages = 8;
for (let i = 0; i < paglast; i = i + 1) {
if (
i === pagcurrent ||
(pagcurrent < showTotalPages && i < showTotalPages) ||
(i > pagcurrent - (showTotalPages - 1) && i < pagcurrent) ||
i > paglast - 1 ||
(i > pagcurrent && i < pagcurrent + showTotalPages)
) {
this.ren.insertBefore(pageRange, this.createPage(i, this.matPag.pageIndex), null);
} else {
if (i > pagcurrent && !dots) {
this.ren.insertBefore(pageRange, this.createPage(this.pageGapTxt, this.matPag.pageIndex), null);
dots = true;
}
}
}
}
private createPage(i: any, pageIndex: number): any {
const linkBtn = this.ren.createElement('mat-button');
this.ren.addClass(linkBtn, 'mat-icon-button');
const pagingTxt = isNaN(i) ? this.pageGapTxt : +(i + 1);
const text = this.ren.createText(pagingTxt + '');
this.ren.addClass(linkBtn, 'mat-custom-page');
switch (i) {
case pageIndex:
this.ren.setAttribute(linkBtn, 'disabled', 'disabled');
break;
case this.pageGapTxt:
this.ren.setAttribute(linkBtn, 'disabled', 'disabled');
break;
default:
this.ren.listen(linkBtn, 'click', () => {
this.currentPage = i;
this.switchPage(i);
});
break;
}
this.ren.appendChild(linkBtn, text);
return linkBtn;
}
private initPageRange(): void {
const pagingContainerMain = this.vr.element.nativeElement.querySelector('.mat-paginator-range-actions');
if (
this.vr.element.nativeElement.querySelector('div.mat-paginator-range-actions div.btn_custom-paging-container')
) {
this.ren.removeChild(
pagingContainerMain,
this.vr.element.nativeElement.querySelector('div.mat-paginator-range-actions div.btn_custom-paging-container'),
);
}
const pagingContainerBtns = this.ren.createElement('div');
const refNode = this.vr.element.nativeElement.childNodes[0].childNodes[0].childNodes[2].childNodes[5];
this.ren.addClass(pagingContainerBtns, 'btn_custom-paging-container');
this.ren.insertBefore(pagingContainerMain, pagingContainerBtns, refNode);
const pageRange = this.vr.element.nativeElement.querySelector(
'div.mat-paginator-range-actions div.btn_custom-paging-container',
);
pageRange.innerHtml = '';
const pageCount = this.pageCount(this.matPag.length, this.matPag.pageSize);
this.buildPageNumbers(pageCount, pageRange);
}
private pageCount(length: number, pageSize: number): number {
return Math.floor(length / pageSize) + 1;
}
private switchPage(i: number): void {
this.matPag.pageIndex = i;
this.matPag._changePageSize(this.matPag.pageSize);
}
public ngAfterViewInit() {
setTimeout(() => {
this.directiveLoaded = true;
}, 500);
}
public ngDoCheck() {
if (this.directiveLoaded) {
this.initPageRange();
}
}
}
After that you just need to add this directive in our module's entryComponents.
Use it like:
<mat-paginator
appStylePaginator //<<== Use of directive
(page)="pageChangeEvent($event)"
[length]="pageLength"
[pageSize]="pageSize"
showFirstLastButtons
>
</mat-paginator>
The output is now:

I wanted a custom paginator with both forward and backward dots with event emitter. So, I improved the #marshal's directive by clearing many bugs and modified to make it work exactly like the ngx-pagination.
Just wanted to share in case if anyone needs this, the code is here Repo link

Insert the buttons from mat-paginator I think it is not possible but you can create the custom pager:
paginator-configurable-example.html
<button mat-button (click)="page.previousPage()"><</button>
<button mat-button (click)="updateManualPage(1)" >1</button>
<button mat-button (click)="updateManualPage(2)">2</button>
<button mat-button (click)="updateManualPage(3)">3</button>
<button mat-button (click)="page.nextPage()">></button>
<mat-paginator style="visibility:hidden" [pageIndex]="pageIndex" #page [length]="100" [pageSize]="10" [pageSizeOptions]="[5, 10, 25, 100]" (page)="pageEvent = $event" ></mat-paginator>
<div *ngIf="pageEvent">
<h5>Page Change Event Properties</h5>
<div>List length: {{pageEvent.length}}</div>
<div>Page size: {{pageEvent.pageSize}}</div>
<div>Page index: {{pageEvent.pageIndex}}</div>
</div>
paginator-configurable-example.ts
import {Component} from '#angular/core';
import {PageEvent} from '#angular/material/paginator';
/**
* #title Configurable paginator
*/
#Component({
selector: 'paginator-configurable-example',
templateUrl: 'paginator-configurable-example.html',
styleUrls: ['paginator-configurable-example.css'],
})
export class PaginatorConfigurableExample {
// MatPaginator Inputs
length = 100;
pageSize = 10;
pageSizeOptions: number[] = [5, 10, 25, 100];
manualPage = null;
// MatPaginator Output
pageEvent: PageEvent;
setPageSizeOptions(setPageSizeOptionsInput: string) {
this.pageSizeOptions = setPageSizeOptionsInput.split(',').map(str => +str);
}
public updateManualPage(index: number): void {
this.manualPage = index;
this.pageEvent.pageIndex = index;
}
public clearManualPage(): void {
this.manualPage = 0;
}
}

Answer 5

Marshal is incorrect. You can set the pageIndex property of the material paginator
https://material.angular.io/components/paginator/api#MatPaginator
I mimicked exactly what you were trying to do. Hard coded so you'll have to figure it out how to add buttons based on the number of pages but here you go.
<button mat-fab (click)="page.previousPage()"><</button>
<button mat-fab (click)="page.pageIndex = 0">1</button>
<button mat-fab (click)="page.pageIndex = 1">2</button>
<button mat-fab (click)="page.pageIndex = 2">3</button>
<button mat-fab (click)="page.nextPage()">></button>
<mat-paginator style="visibility:hidden" #page [length]="100" [pageSize]="10" [pageSizeOptions]="[5, 10, 25, 100]"></mat-paginator>

Answer 6

You can find here my custom directive (StylePaginatorDirective) inspired by the answer provided by #Marshal but completely rewriten from scratch in order to shows the pagination inside the mat-paginator-range-label
