Yajra Datatables provides us with quick search, pagination, ordering, sorting and etc. Datatables is basically jQuery plugins that allow you to add advanced interaction controls to your HTML tables data. Datatables also provide ajax for data searching and getting. you can give a very quick layout for search and sorting using Datatables. You can also implement Datatables in your laravel application.

In this example, we will use the default "users" table and add some dummy users to it using tinker, then we simply list all users using yajra datatables. so let's follow the below step and make it done.

Step 1: Install Laravel 9

This step is not required; however, if you have not created the laravel app, then you may go ahead and execute the below command:

composer create-project laravel/laravel example-app

Step 2: Install Yajra Datatable

In this step we need to install yajra datatable via the Composer package manager, so one your terminal and fire bellow command:

composer require yajra/laravel-datatables-oracle

Step 3: Add Dummy Users

In this step, we will create some dummy users using tinker factory. so let's create dummy records using bellow command:

php artisan tinker

User::factory()->count(20)->create()

Step 4: Create Controller

In this point, now we should create new controller as UserController. this controller will manage layout and getting data request and return response, so put bellow content in controller file:

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

In this is step we need to create route for datatables layout file and another one for getting data. so open your "routes/web.php" file and add following 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

In Last step, let's create users.blade.php(resources/views/users.blade.php) for layout and we will write design code here and put following code:

resources/views/users.blade.php
