Laravel-datatables: How to create child row / Child detail

Hi,

Just follow as what that link shows on javascript side and it should work as expected. The only difference on that example is that you will have to use the server side script of DT.

On the other hand, I think I will add this on the Demo App that I've been working on lately. Will keep you posted here when the demo for Row Details is ready. Also check it out for you to see how use the package on certain scenarios.

Cheers!

Below is an example script you can use to implement this.

var table = $('#users-table').DataTable({
        processing: true,
        serverSide: true,
        ajax: '{{ url("users-data") }}',
        columns: [
            {
                "className":      'details-control',
                "orderable":      false,
                "data":           null,
                "defaultContent": ''
            },
            {data: 'id', name: 'id'},
            {data: 'name', name: 'name'},
            {data: 'email', name: 'email'},
            {data: 'created_at', name: 'created_at'},
            {data: 'updated_at', name: 'updated_at'}
        ],
        order: [[1, 'asc']]
    });

    // Add event listener for opening and closing details
    $('#users-table tbody').on('click', 'td.details-control', function () {
        var tr = $(this).closest('tr');
        var row = table.row( tr );

        if ( row.child.isShown() ) {
            // This row is already open - close it
            row.child.hide();
            tr.removeClass('shown');
        }
        else {
            // Open this row
            row.child( format(row.data()) ).show();
            tr.addClass('shown');
        }
    });

    /* Formatting function for row details - modify as you need */
    function format ( d ) {
        // `d` is the original data object for the row
        return '<table class="table">'+
            '<tr>'+
                '<td>Full name:</td>'+
                '<td>'+d.name+'</td>'+
                '</tr>'+
            '<tr>'+
                '<td>Email:</td>'+
                '<td>'+d.email+'</td>'+
                '</tr>'+
            '<tr>'+
                '<td>Extra info:</td>'+
                '<td>And any further details here (images etc)...</td>'+
                '</tr>'+
            '</table>';
    }

On your controller

public function getUsersData()
{
        $users = User::select(['id', 'name', 'email', 'created_at', 'updated_at']);

        return Datatables::of($users)->make(true);
}

Done adding Row Details example on Demo App just check it out to see how it works. Thanks!

not sure on the js error but you should have something like this on your script. Using handle bar template and then pass the data template(row.data()).

var template = Handlebars.compile($("#details-template").html());

// Add event listener for opening and closing details
    $('#users-table tbody').on('click', 'td.details-control', function () {
        var tr = $(this).closest('tr');
        var row = table.row( tr );

        if ( row.child.isShown() ) {
            // This row is already open - close it
            row.child.hide();
            tr.removeClass('shown');
        }
        else {
            // Open this row
            row.child( template(row.data()) ).show();
            tr.addClass('shown');
        }
    });

Yup sorry, the code working i just need delete the other data after 'action',
The detail can be clicked on the left side of the table, the problem is the icon is not showing..Already download the button from your demo though :?

I think the css hasnt inserted yet..
My bad, thank you for the fast respond :+1:

Here is how i did it all from my controller, i hope this helps someone who doesn't want implementation from js, actually we're calling js but from our laravel controller,

$model = User::all();
if (request()->ajax()) {
   return DataTables::make($model)
    ->addIndexColumn()
    ->addColumn('handleBarColumn',function(User $userData){
            return view('admin.pages.forms.handleBarInfo',compact('userData'));
    })
    ->rawColumns(['handleBarColumn'])
        ->toJson();
}
$html = $builder->columns([
       ['title' => '','className' => 'details-control','orderable'  => false, 'data' => null,'searchable' => false,'defaultContent' => '','width' => '20px'],
    // ['data' => 'DT_RowIndex', 'name' => 'DT_RowIndex', 'title' => '#','orderable' => 'false','searchable' => 'false'],
       ['data' => 'email', 'name' => 'email', 'title' => 'Email'],
       ['data' => 'handleBarColumn', 'name' => 'handleBarColumn', 'title' => '','visible' => false,'orderable'  => false]
  ])->parameters([
            'dom'           => 'Bfrtip',
            'paging'        => true,
            'searching'     => true,
            'info'          => true,
            'buttons'       => [ 'csv' , 'excel' , 'pdf'],
            'order'         => [1,'asc'],
            'drawCallback' => 'function () {
                function format ( d ) {
                    return d.handleBarColumn;
                }
                let table = $("#formDataTables").DataTable();
                $("#formDataTables tbody").on("click", "td.details-control", function () {
                    let tr = $(this).closest("tr");
                    let row = table.row( tr );
                    if ( row.child.isShown() ) {
                        row.child.hide();
                        tr.removeClass("shown");
                    }
                    else {
                        row.child(format(row.data())).show();
                        tr.addClass("shown");
                    }
                });
            }',
        ]);

Now finally inside blade file (which is in my case "admin > pages > forms > handleBarInfo.blade.php") you can write any condition you want

{{ $userData->email }}

And here is my index file where all datatables is rendered

@extends('admin.layout.app')

        <div class="ibox-content">
            <div class="row">

can we put ajax inside our php controller? like you do, you are call js inside controller. is it possible if we put ajax inside the js on controller?

I know this is old, but just to mention, @vipertecpro , your implementation has one bug because drawCallback is executed on every table reload, so when you load your page, it works as expected. If you reload you datatable (not the whole page) it runs again, so it runs twice (show-hide) when clicking (and the info doesn't show). If you reload again, it runs three times and the info is shown (show-hide-show) and so on....

I think you should use 'initComplete' for this.
