Laravel Jquery Ajax Pagination Example From Scratch

Today, I am going to share with you how to make easy jquery ajax pagination example in laravel 6, laravel 7, laravel 8, laravel 9 and laravel 10 Application from scratch tutorial.

As you know Pagination is a very basic requirement of Any Admin Panel, ERP or back-end Panel. Pagination help us to load few records every time, that way can not broken web page due to lots of data. If you are making pagination and do it using jquery ajax then it more beautiful. Ajax Pagination load only your table data instead of whole page. So ajax pagination is very helpful. In this post i am making very simple example of ajax pagination in Laravel 5.4 application.

Here, you have to just follow few step to create jquery ajax pagination example from scratch. So let's follow few step:

Step 1 : Install Laravel Application

we are going from scratch, So we require to get fresh Laravel 5.4 application using bellow command, So open your terminal OR command prompt and run bellow command:

composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel blog

Step 2 : Database Configuration

In this step, we require to make database configuration, you have to add following details on your .env file.

1.Database Username

2.Database Password

3.Database Name

In .env file also available host and port details, you can configure all details as in your system, So you can put like as bellow:

.env

DB_HOST=localhost
DB_DATABASE=homestead
DB_USERNAME=homestead
DB_PASSWORD=secret

Step 3: Create Item Table and Model

In this step we have to create migration for items table using Laravel 5.4 php artisan command, so first fire bellow command:

php artisan make:migration create_items_table

After this command you will find one file in following path database/migrations and you have to put bellow code in your migration file for create items table.

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;

class CreateItemsTable extends Migration
{
    /**
     * Run the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function up()
    {
        Schema::create('items', function (Blueprint $table) {
           $table->increments('id');
           $table->string('title');
           $table->string('description');
           $table->timestamps();
       });
    }

    /**
     * Reverse the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function down()
    {
        Schema::drop("items");
    }
}

After create "items" table you should create Item model for items, so first create file in this path app/Item.php and put bellow content in item.php file:

app/Item.php

<?php

namespace App;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class Item extends Model
{

}

Step 4: Add New Route

In this is step we need to create routes for items listing. so open your routes/web.php file and add following route.

routes/web.php

Route::get('ajax-pagination',array('as'=>'pagination','uses'=>'HomeController@ajaxPagination'));

Step 5: Create Controller

In this step, we have to create two view file one for layout and another for data. now we should create new controller as HomeController in this path app/Http/Controllers/HomeController.php. this controller will manage all listing items and item ajax request and return response, so put bellow content in controller file:

app/Http/Controllers/HomeController.php

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Item;

class HomeController extends Controller
{
    /**
     * Create a new controller instance.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function __construct()
    {

    }

    /**
     * Listing Pagination Data.
     *
     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
     */
    public function ajaxPagination(Request $request)
    {
        $items = Item::paginate(5);
        if ($request->ajax()) {
            return view('data', compact('items'));
        }
        return view('items',compact('items'));
    }
}

Step 6: Create View

In Last step, let's create items.blade.php(resources/views/items.blade.php) for layout and lists all items code here and put following code:

resources/views/items.blade.php

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
	<title>Laravel Ajax Pagination Example</title>
	<link href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.6/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
	<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.4/jquery.min.js"></script>
    <script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.6/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>

<div class="container">

	<h2>Items Data</h2>

	<div id="item-lists">
		@include('data')
	</div>

</div>

<script type="text/javascript">

$(window).on('hashchange', function() {
    if (window.location.hash) {
        var page = window.location.hash.replace('#', '');
        if (page == Number.NaN || page <= 0) {
            return false;
        }else{
            getData(page);
        }
    }
});

$(document).ready(function()
{
    $(document).on('click', '.pagination a',function(event)
    {
        $('li').removeClass('active');
        $(this).parent('li').addClass('active');
        event.preventDefault();

        var myurl = $(this).attr('href');
        var page=$(this).attr('href').split('page=')[1];

        getData(page);
    });
});

function getData(page){
        $.ajax(
        {
            url: '?page=' + page,
            type: "get",
            datatype: "html",
        })
        .done(function(data)
        {
            $("#item-lists").empty().html(data);
            location.hash = page;
        })
        .fail(function(jqXHR, ajaxOptions, thrownError)
        {
              alert('No response from server');
        });
}

</script>

</body>
</html>

resources/views/data.blade.php

<table class="table table-bordered">
<thead>
    <tr>
        <th>Title</th>
        <th>Description</th>          
    </tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
    @foreach ($items as $item)
    <tr>
        <td>{{ $item->title }}</td>
        <td>{{ $item->description }}</td>
    </tr>
    @endforeach
</tbody>
</table>

{!! $items->render() !!}

Make sure you have some dummy data on your items table before run this example. Now we are ready to run our example so run bellow command for quick run:

php artisan serve

Now you can open bellow URL on your browser:

http://localhost:8000/ajax-pagination

I hope it can help you...
