In this tutorial I'm going to describe how to add data in DataTable in laravel 8 we will create single page companies ajax crud application (SPA) using dataTables js, modal and jQuery in laravel 8.

Laravel 8 Ajax CRUD Tutorial using Datatable JS
Step 1 – Download Laravel 8 App
Step 2 – Database Configuration
Step 3 – Installing Yajra Datatables
Step 4 – Make Model & Migration
Step 5 – Make Routes
Step 6 – Create AJAX CRUD Datatables Controller
Step 7 – Create Blade Views File
companies.blade.php
company-action.blade.php
Step 8 – Run Development Server

Step 1 — Download Laravel 8 App

1st step Install laravel project and new setup, lets open the terminal C:\xampp\htdocs and paste below code

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

Step 2 — Database Configuration

Setup database with your installed laravel 8 project . lets go to .env folder and put database name and connect to database.

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

Next run this command

php artisan migrate

Step 3 — Installing Yajra Datatables

composer require yajra/laravel-datatables-oracle

Then configure datatables package. So go to config directory and open app.php file. And add the following service providers into app.php file:

Go to -> config/app.php and put in providers section

'providers' => [
    
   Yajra\Datatables\DatatablesServiceProvider::class,
],
 
 'aliases' => [
 
  'Datatables' => Yajra\Datatables\Facades\Datatables::class,
]

Then publish laravel datatables vendor package by using below command:

php artisan vendor:publish

Step 4 — Make Model & Migration

php artisan make:model Company -m

Simply copy this code and paste in companies model

<?php

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

class CreateCompaniesTable extends Migration
{
    /**
     * Run the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function up()
    {
        Schema::create('companies', function (Blueprint $table) {
            $table->id();
            $table->timestamps();
            $table->string('name');
            $table->string('email');
            $table->string('address');
        });
    }

    /**
     * Reverse the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function down()
    {
        Schema::dropIfExists('companies');
    }
}

Lets migrate table to database run this command

php artisan migrate

After that, lets go to app/models directory and open company.php model file. Then add the following code into it:

<?php

namespace App;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class Company extends Model
{
    
    protected $fillable =['name', 'email', 'address'];

}

Step 5 — Make Routes

<?php

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;

/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| 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('/', function () {
    return view('welcome');
});

use App\Http\Controllers\DataTableAjaxCRUDController;
 
Route::get('ajax-crud-datatable', [DataTableAjaxCRUDController::class, 'index']);
Route::post('store-company', [DataTableAjaxCRUDController::class, 'store']);
Route::post('edit-company', [DataTableAjaxCRUDController::class, 'edit']);
Route::post('delete-company', [DataTableAjaxCRUDController::class, 'destroy']);

Step 6 — Create AJAX CRUD Datatables Controller

php artisan make:controller DataTableAjaxCRUDController -r

Lets go to controller and copy below code and paste there

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;


use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Company;
class DataTableAjaxCRUDController 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', 'company-action')
            ->rawColumns(['action'])
            ->addIndexColumn()
            ->make(true);
        }
        return view('companies');
    }

    /**
     * Show the form for creating a new resource.
     *
     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
     */
    public function create()
    {
        //
    }

    /**
     * Store a newly created resource in storage.
     *
     * @param  \Illuminate\Http\Request  $request
     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
     */
    public function store(Request $request)
    {
        $companyId = $request->id;
 
        $company   =   Company::updateOrCreate(
                    [
                     'id' => $companyId
                    ],
                    [
                    'name' => $request->name, 
                    'email' => $request->email,
                    'address' => $request->address
                    ]);    
                         
        return Response()->json($company);
    }

    /**
     * Display the specified resource.
     *
     * @param  int  $id
     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
     */
    public function show($id)
    {
        //
    }

    /**
     * Show the form for editing the specified resource.
     *
     * @param  int  $id
     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
     */
    public function edit($id)
    {
        $where = array('id' => $request->id);
        $company = Company::where($where)->first();

        return Response()->json($company);
    }

    /**
     * Update the specified resource in storage.
     *
     * @param  \Illuminate\Http\Request  $request
     * @param  int  $id
     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
     */
    public function update(Request $request, $id)
    {
        //
    }

    /**
     * Remove the specified resource from storage.
     *
     * @param  int  $id
     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
     */
    public function destroy($id)
    {
        $company = Company::where('id','$request->id')->delete();
        return Response()->json($company);
    }
}

Step 6 — Create Blade Views File

Create two blade views file, which is following:

• companies.blade.php

Next go to companies.blade.php file and paste below code

<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready( function () {
$.ajaxSetup({
headers: {
'X-CSRF-TOKEN': $('meta[name="csrf-token"]').attr('content')
}
});
$('#ajax-crud-datatable').DataTable({
processing: true,
serverSide: true,
ajax: "{{ url('ajax-crud-datatable') }}",
columns: [
{ data: 'id', name: 'id' },
{ data: 'name', name: 'name' },
{ data: 'email', name: 'email' },
{ data: 'address', name: 'address' },
{ data: 'created_at', name: 'created_at' },
{data: 'action', name: 'action', orderable: false},
],
order: [[0, 'desc']]
});
});
function add(){
$('#CompanyForm').trigger("reset");
$('#CompanyModal').html("Add Company");
$('#company-modal').modal('show');
$('#id').val('');
}   
function editFunc(id){
$.ajax({
type:"POST",
url: "{{ url('edit-company') }}",
data: { id: id },
dataType: 'json',
success: function(res){
$('#CompanyModal').html("Edit Company");
$('#company-modal').modal('show');
$('#id').val(res.id);
$('#name').val(res.name);
$('#address').val(res.address);
$('#email').val(res.email);
}
});
}  
function deleteFunc(id){
if (confirm("Delete Record?") == true) {
var id = id;
// ajax
$.ajax({
type:"POST",
url: "{{ url('delete-company') }}",
data: { id: id },
dataType: 'json',
success: function(res){
var oTable = $('#ajax-crud-datatable').dataTable();
oTable.fnDraw(false);
}
});
}
}
$('#CompanyForm').submit(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
var formData = new FormData(this);
$.ajax({
type:'POST',
url: "{{ url('store-company')}}",
data: formData,
cache:false,
contentType: false,
processData: false,
success: (data) => {
$("#company-modal").modal('hide');
var oTable = $('#ajax-crud-datatable').dataTable();
oTable.fnDraw(false);
$("#btn-save").html('Submit');
$("#btn-save"). attr("disabled", false);
},
error: function(data){
console.log(data);
}
});
});
</script>
</html>

Lets go to your browser and run this url

http://127.0.0.1:8000/ajax-crud-datatable

Now its open like this and successfully working and store in database as well.

Thanks 🙏🙏
