Prerequisites
Make sure you have jquery built in the app.js assets. The example for setup the jQuery in Laravel follows the Laravel/UI auth scaffolding with Bootstrap mode. In the resource/js/bootstrap.js, we could see the jquery is imported:
...
try {
window.Popper = require('popper.js').default;
window.$ = window.jQuery = require('jquery');
require('bootstrap');
} catch (e) {}
...
Installing Datatable
If you're currently using Bootstrap 4 for the project, you may want to use the bootstrap 4 styled datatable by installing it:
npm install datatables.net-bs4 --save-dev
or if you want to keep the datatable plain, use this instead:
npm install datatables.net --save-dev
Build Datatable
If you're using bootstrap 4, just import the datatable inside the mentioned jquery import code block above:
try {
window.Popper = require('popper.js').default;
window.$ = window.jQuery = require('jquery');
require('bootstrap');
require('datatables.net-bs4');
} catch (e) {}
also, make sure to apply the styles:
...
// Bootstrap
@import "~bootstrap/scss/bootstrap";
// Datatables BS4
@import "~datatables.net-bs4/css/dataTables.bootstrap4.css";
...
or for plain datatable, you only need to modify the js script:
try {
window.Popper = require('popper.js').default;
window.$ = window.jQuery = require('jquery');
require('bootstrap');
require('datatables.net');
} catch (e) {}
then build the assets by:
npm run development
or
npm run production
Test the Datatable
Let's create a new route like this:
routes\web.php:
...
Route::get('/datatable-example', function(){
return view('datatable-example');
});
...
and a new view blade file named datatable-example.blade.php and fill it with:
resources\views\datatable-example.blade.php:
