DataTables
The best way to use DataTables in any Laravel app is to use laravel-datatables, from Arjay Angeles (yajra). The laravel-datatables package comes with many features to include/use datatables y many ways.
I prefer to use datatables() helper with ajax server side. Dash comes with an abstract class to help you build your
ajax response. Here is an example for an User model :
1. Create a route to data source
Since we will return a json response, api.php is a good place to put your datatable routes. You can create the path and route name as you wish, for example:
2. Create a class to build your query
Create a class that extends Dash\DataTables\Datatable abstract class. Your class must implements query() function
from Datatable.
3. Create a controller method
Use the datatable class created before inside the controller:
The generate function inside Datatable class will take care of build the query and return a json response,
all with server side processing.
You may be wondering: why make a class just to return a simple Users::query()?
Well, this is the most simple example, but as you can imagine, query data source can become more complex, for example:
To separate controllers and datatables data source, I prefer to have all datatables classes in App\DataTables folder.
4. Create view
Create an html table in any blade file:
Push the datatable script to scripts yield section:
Javascript helpers
