In Laravel 10, Yajra Datatables is a popular Laravel package that provides an easy way to work with DataTables, a powerful jQuery plugin for creating interactive and feature-rich tables in web applications.
Server-side processing: DataTables has built-in support for server-side processing, which means that it can handle large datasets efficiently by retrieving data from the server as needed. Yajra Datatables provides a convenient way to implement server-side processing in Laravel, allowing you to handle and manipulate large datasets without performance issues
Step 1: Install Laravel App
composer create-project laravel/laravel example-YajraTable
Step 2: Install Yajra Datatable
composer require yajra/laravel-datatables-oracle
Step 3: Add Dummy Users
Run Command:
php artisan tinker
User::factory()->count(20)->create()
Step 4: Create Controller
app/Http/Controllers/UserController.php
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Models\User;
use DataTables;
class UserController extends Controller
{
/**
* Display a listing of the resource.
*
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function index(Request $request)
{
if ($request->ajax()) {
$data = User::select('*');
return Datatables::of($data)
->addIndexColumn()
->addColumn('action', function($row){
$btn = '<a href="javascript:void(0)" class="edit btn btn-primary btn-sm">View</a>';
return $btn;
})
->rawColumns(['action'])
->make(true);
}
return view('users');
}
}
Step 5: Add Route
routes/web.php
<?php
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;
use App\Http\Controllers\UserController;
/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Web Routes
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| Here is where you can register web routes for your application. These
| routes are loaded by the RouteServiceProvider within a group which
| contains the "web" middleware group. Now create something great!
|
*/
Route::get('users', [UserController::class, 'index'])->name('users.index');
Step 6: Create Blade File
resources/views/users.blade.php
