DataTable

This lib allows to process DataTable data content from server-side using PHP

Instalation

Using composer

composer require emagombe/datatable

Without composer

Clone the project or download a release from https://github.com/emagombe/datatable/releases And import autoload.php file to you project

require_once 'autoload.php';

Generating server-side data

from PDOStatement object

In the static method create pass the PDOStatement object then call the build object method to execute and return the output

use emagombe\DataTable;

$sql = "SELECT * FROM table;";
$stmt = $conn->prepare($sql);

$dt = DataTable::create($stmt)->build();
echo $dt; 

from Array

Same as above, pass a array to the static method create then call the build object method to execute and return the output

use emagombe\DataTable;

$array = [];
$dt = DataTable::create($array)->build();
echo $dt;

Streaming response

Use the stream method to print the response

DataTable::create($result)->stream();

Adding custom column

Call the object method addColumn to add a custom column. This method receives the current row as parameter;

Note: The callback should return a string containing the custom content of the column!

$dt = DataTable::create($result)->addColumn("action", function($row) {
	return "<b>".$row["name"]."</b>";
})->build();
