Laravel 8 Ajax CRUD Using Datatable Tutorial

In this tutorial you will learn about the Laravel 8 Ajax CRUD Using Datatable Tutorial and its application with practical example.

In this Laravel 8 Datatables CRUD operation example tutorial I’ll show you how to create a simple crud application using yajra Datatables in laravel 8. In this example we will learn how to create a simple crud operation application using Datatables in laravel 8. In this laravel 8 crud application we will be using jQuery and ajax to delete data from datatable crud app and MySQL database in laravel 8 app.

Laravel 8 Ajax CRUD Using Datatable Tutorial
Start Development Server

In this tutorial, you will learn to implement ajax based CRUD (Create, Read, Update and Delete) operations using datatable js. In this tutorial, we will be using yajra datatable package for listing of records with pagination, sorting and filter (search) feature.

In this step by step guide, we will be creating a simple laravel 8 application to demonstrate you how to install yajra datatable package and implement ajax based CRUD operations with datatable js.

Download Laravel 8 App
Database Configuration
Installing Yajra Datatables

Build Model & Migration
Create Routes
Generate CRUD Controller By Artisan Command

Create Blade Views File
Run Development Server

Install Laravel 8

First of all we need to create a fresh laravel project, download and install Laravel 8 using the below command

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

1	composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel larablog

Configure Database In .env file

Now, lets create a MySQL database and connect it with laravel application. After creating database we need to set database credential in application’s .env file.

.env

DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=larablog
DB_USERNAME=root
DB_PASSWORD=

DB_CONNECTION=mysql

DB_HOST=127.0.0.1

DB_PORT=3306

DB_DATABASE=larablog

DB_USERNAME=root

DB_PASSWORD=

Install Yajra Datatable Package

In this step, we will install Yajra Datatables Package via the composer dependency manager. Use the following command to install Yajra Datatables Package.

composer require yajra/laravel-datatables-oracle

1	composer require yajra/laravel-datatables-oracle

After Installing Yajra Datatables package, we need to add service provider and alias in config/app.php file as following.

config/app.php

'providers' => [
      // Other service providers…
  Yajra\DataTables\DataTablesServiceProvider::class,
 ],

'aliases' => [
 // Other aliases…
 'Datatables' => Yajra\Datatables\Facades\Datatables::class,
 ],

'providers' => [

// Other service providers…

Yajra\DataTables\DataTablesServiceProvider::class,

'aliases' => [

// Other aliases…

'Datatables' => Yajra\Datatables\Facades\Datatables::class,

Now, we need to publish laravel datatables vendor package by using the following command:

php artisan vendor:publish

1	php artisan vendor:publish

Build Model & Migration

Now, in this step we will create model and migration file for form. Please run the following command:

php artisan make:model Company -m

1	php artisan make:model Company -m

Once above command is executed there will be a migration file created inside database/migrations/ directory, just open create_companies_table.php migration file and update the function up() method as following:

public function up()
{
    Schema::create('companies', function (Blueprint $table) {
        $table->id();
        $table->string('name');
        $table->string('email');
        $table->string('address');
        $table->timestamps();
    });
}

public function up()

{

Schema::create('companies', function (Blueprint $table) {

$table->id();

$table->string('name');

$table->string('email');

$table->string('address');

$table->timestamps();

});

}

Now, run the migration to create database table using following artisan command:

php artisan migrate

1	php artisan migrate

Create Routes

After this, we need to define routes in “routes/web.php” file. Lets open “routes/web.php” file and add the following routes in it.

routes/web.php

Route::resource('companies', CompanyCRUDController::class);
Route::post('delete-company', [CompanyCRUDController::class,'destroy']);

1 2	Route::resource('companies', CompanyCRUDController::class); Route::post('delete-company', [CompanyCRUDController::class,'destroy']);

Generate CRUD Controller By Artisan Command

Next, we have to create a controller to for laravel crud operations. Lets Create a controller named CompanyCRUDController using command given below –

php artisan make:controller CompanyCRUDController

1	php artisan make:controller CompanyCRUDController

Open the CompanyCRUDController.php file and put the following code in it.

app/Http/Controllers/CompanyCRUDController.php

<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use App\Models\Company;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Datatables;
class CompanyCRUDController extends Controller
{
/**
* Display a listing of the resource.
*
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function index()
{
if(request()->ajax()) {
return datatables()->of(Company::select('*'))
->addColumn('action', 'companies.action')
->rawColumns(['action'])
->addIndexColumn()
->make(true);
}
return view('companies.index');
}
/**
* Show the form for creating a new resource.
*
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function create()
{
return view('companies.create');
}
/**
* Store a newly created resource in storage.
*
* @param  \Illuminate\Http\Request  $request
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function store(Request $request)
{
$request->validate([
'name' => 'required',
'email' => 'required',
'address' => 'required'
]);
$company = new Company;
$company->name = $request->name;
$company->email = $request->email;
$company->address = $request->address;
$company->save();
return redirect()->route('companies.index')
->with('success','Company has been created successfully.');
}
/**
* Display the specified resource.
*
* @param  \App\company  $company
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function show(Company $company)
{
return view('companies.show',compact('company'));
} 
/**
* Show the form for editing the specified resource.
*
* @param  \App\Company  $company
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function edit(Company $company)
{
return view('companies.edit',compact('company'));
}
/**
* Update the specified resource in storage.
*
* @param  \Illuminate\Http\Request  $request
* @param  \App\company  $company
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function update(Request $request, $id)
{
$request->validate([
'name' => 'required',
'email' => 'required',
'address' => 'required'
]);
$company = Company::find($id);
$company->name = $request->name;
$company->email = $request->email;
$company->address = $request->address;
$company->save();
return redirect()->route('companies.index')
->with('success','Company Has Been updated successfully');
}
/**
* Remove the specified resource from storage.
*
* @param  \App\Company  $company
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function destroy(Request $request)
{
$com = Company::where('id',$request->id)->delete();
return Response()->json($com);
}
}

Create Blade Views File

Create the directory and create blade view file for CRUD operations as following:

Make Directory Name Companies
index.blade.php
create.blade.php

edit.blade.php
action.blade.php

Create directory name companies inside resources/views directory.

index.blade.php:

In the above code following jQuery ajax code is used to delete from datatable and database without refresh or reload page in laravel 8 app:

$('body').on('click', '.delete', function () {
if (confirm("Delete Record?") == true) {
var id = $(this).data('id');
// ajax
$.ajax({
type:"POST",
url: "{{ url('delete-company') }}",
data: { id: id},
dataType: 'json',
success: function(res){
var oTable = $('#datatable-crud').dataTable();
oTable.fnDraw(false);
}
});
}
});

$('body').on('click', '.delete', function () {

if (confirm("Delete Record?") == true) {

var id = $(this).data('id');

// ajax

$.ajax({

type:"POST",

url: "{{ url('delete-company') }}",

data: { id: id},

dataType: 'json',

success: function(res){

var oTable = $('#datatable-crud').dataTable();

oTable.fnDraw(false);

}

});

}

});

Start Development Server

Now we are ready to run our example so lets start the development server using following artisan command –

php artisan serve

1	php artisan serve

Now, open the following URL in browser to see the output –

http://localhost:8000/companies
