README

A Blade-centric, reactive data table component for Laravel + Livewire. Define your tables using familiar Blade component syntax and get sorting, searching, filtering, and pagination out of the box — all powered by Livewire under the hood.

Features

Blade-first API — define tables, columns, search, filters, and footers entirely in Blade templates using <x-data-table> and its sub-components
Multiple data sources — Eloquent models, Eloquent/Query builders, collections, arrays, callables, and custom data providers
Preset-based theming — ships with vanilla, bootstrap4v1, and tailwind3v1 presets; fully customizable via config
Global search — full-table search with configurable modes (contains, starts_with, ends_with, exact, fulltext)
Per-column search — individual column search inputs with debounce support
Filters — text, number, date, datetime, select, select-multiple, and range filters with collapsible UI
Sorting — clickable column headers with ascending/descending/none toggle cycle
Pagination — length-aware, simple, and cursor pagination with custom views for Bootstrap and Tailwind
Per-page selector — configurable options with max and all special values
Loading overlay — built-in spinner overlay with Livewire loading states
Custom column rendering — use Blade content inside column definitions for full control
Row-level customization — dynamic @rowClass, @rowStyle, and @rowAttributes directives
Custom footer — arbitrary footer content via <x-data-table.footer>
Query string sync — search, filters, sorting, and pagination state reflected in the URL
Internationalization — ships with English and Brazilian Portuguese translations
Eloquent customization interfaces — override search, filtering, sorting, and query building at the model level
Auto-discovery — zero-config service provider registration

Requirements

Dependency	Version
PHP	`^8.3`
Laravel	`^12.60` or `^13.10`
Livewire	`^3.6` or `^4.0`
erickcomp/laravel-raw-blade-components	`2.0` (installed automatically)
phpgt/dom	`^4.1` (installed automatically)

Optional

Package	Purpose
laravie/serialize-queries	Required when using Eloquent/Query builder instances as data sources

Installation

composer require erickcomp/livewire-data-table

The package uses Laravel's auto-discovery, so the service provider is registered automatically.

Configuration

Publish the configuration file:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=erickcomp-livewire-data-table-config

Publish the translation files:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=erickcomp-livewire-data-table-lang

Note: This package stores compiled component definitions in storage/framework/views/, alongside Laravel's compiled Blade templates. They are automatically cleared by php artisan view:clear, which is typically part of deployment scripts.

The configuration file (config/erickcomp-livewire-data-table.php) contains:

Global defaults — columns-search-debounce-ms, query string parameter names
Presets — full theme definitions for empty, vanilla, bootstrap4v1, and tailwind3v1

Each preset defines CSS classes, icons, transitions, loader overlays, pagination views, and asset styles for every table element. Presets support inheritance via the extends key.

You can also define custom presets in your application config under the app.lw_dt_presets key:

// config/app.php (or a dedicated config file)
'lw_dt_presets' => [
    'my-theme' => [
        'extends' => 'vanilla',
        'table' => [
            'class' => ['my-custom-table-class'],
        ],
        // ... override any preset keys
    ],
],

Usage

Basic Table with Eloquent Model

<x-data-table :data-src="App\Models\User::class" preset="tailwind3v1">
    <x-data-table.column title="ID" data-field="id" sortable />
    <x-data-table.column title="Name" data-field="name" sortable searchable />
    <x-data-table.column title="Email" data-field="email" sortable searchable />
    <x-data-table.column title="Created At" data-field="created_at" sortable />
</x-data-table>

Table with Collection Data

<x-data-table :data-src="$users" preset="bootstrap4v1" per-page="10,25,50">
    <x-data-table.column title="Name" data-field="name" sortable />
    <x-data-table.column title="Role" data-field="role" />
</x-data-table>

Table with Eloquent Builder

Requires the laravie/serialize-queries package.

<x-data-table :data-src="App\Models\User::where('active', true)" preset="vanilla">
    <x-data-table.column title="Name" data-field="name" sortable searchable />
    <x-data-table.column title="Email" data-field="email" />
</x-data-table>

Table with Callable Data Source

<x-data-table data-src="App\Services\UserService@getUsers" preset="tailwind3v1">
    <x-data-table.column title="Name" data-field="name" sortable />
</x-data-table>

The callable receives an LwDataRetrievalParams instance with all search, filter, sort, and pagination parameters:

namespace App\Services;

use ErickComp\LivewireDataTable\Livewire\LwDataRetrievalParams;
use App\Models\User;

class UserService
{
    public function getUsers(LwDataRetrievalParams $params)
    {
        $query = User::query();

        // Apply search, filters, sorting and paginate in one call
        return $params->applyAndPaginate($query);
    }
}

Global Search

<x-data-table :data-src="App\Models\User::class" preset="tailwind3v1">
    <x-data-table.search data-fields="name,email" />

    <x-data-table.column title="Name" data-field="name" sortable />
    <x-data-table.column title="Email" data-field="email" sortable />
</x-data-table>

The data-fields attribute accepts a comma-separated list of fields to search across. You can also specify search modes per field:

<x-data-table.search data-fields="name:contains,email:starts_with,bio:fulltext" />

Available search modes: contains (default), starts_with, ends_with, exact, fulltext.

Setting data-fields to true (or omitting it) searches all non-hidden model columns when using an Eloquent data source. When using a collection-based data source, data-fields must be explicitly provided.

Per-Column Search

Add searchable to column definitions to enable per-column search inputs:

<x-data-table.column title="Name" data-field="name" searchable />
<x-data-table.column title="Email" data-field="email" searchable="starts_with" />

The searchable attribute accepts true (defaults to contains mode) or a specific mode string.

Filters

<x-data-table :data-src="App\Models\Order::class" preset="tailwind3v1">
    <x-data-table.filters collapsible="true">
        <x-data-table.filter
            data-field="status"
            label="Status"
            input-type="select"
        />

        <x-data-table.filter
            data-field="created_at"
            label="Date Range"
            input-type="date"
            mode="range"
        />

        <x-data-table.filter
            data-field="total"
            label="Amount"
            input-type="number"
            mode="range"
        />

        <x-data-table.filter
            data-field="customer_name"
            label="Customer"
            input-type="text"
            mode="contains"
        />
    </x-data-table.filters>

    <x-data-table.column title="Order #" data-field="id" sortable />
    <x-data-table.column title="Customer" data-field="customer_name" sortable />
    <x-data-table.column title="Total" data-field="total" sortable />
    <x-data-table.column title="Status" data-field="status" sortable />
    <x-data-table.column title="Date" data-field="created_at" sortable />
</x-data-table>

Filter Input Types

Type	Description
`text`	Text input (default)
`number`	Number input
`date`	Date text input
`date-picker`	Native date picker
`datetime`	Datetime text input
`datetime-picker`	Native datetime-local picker
`select`	Dropdown select
`select-multiple`	Multiple-selection dropdown

Filter Modes

Mode	SQL Equivalent
`exact`	`= value`
`contains`	`LIKE %value%`
`starts_with`	`LIKE value%`
`ends_with`	`LIKE %value`
`fulltext`	`MATCH ... AGAINST`
`range`	`>= from AND <= to`
`IN`	`IN (values)`

You can also specify the mode inline in the data-field attribute:

<x-data-table.filter data-field="name:starts_with" label="Name" />

Custom Filter Rendering

Wrap content inside <x-data-table.filter> to provide a custom template:

<x-data-table.filter data-field="status" label="Status">
    <select>
        <option value="">All</option>
        <option value="active">Active</option>
        <option value="inactive">Inactive</option>
    </select>
</x-data-table.filter>

The package automatically injects x-model and name attributes into <input> and <select> elements within custom filter templates.

Custom Column Rendering

Wrap content inside <x-data-table.column> to define custom cell rendering:

<x-data-table.column title="Actions" data-field="id">
    <a href="/users/{{ $__row->id }}/edit">Edit</a>
</x-data-table.column>

Row-Level Customization

Use the @rowClass, @rowStyle, and @rowAttributes directives on <x-data-table> to dynamically style rows based on row data. The variable $__row represents the current row and $loop is the standard loop variable:

<x-data-table
    :data-src="App\Models\User::class"
    preset="tailwind3v1"
    @rowClass(['bg-red-100' => $__row->is_blocked])
    @rowStyle(['opacity: 0.5' => $__row->is_inactive])
    @rowAttributes(['data-user-id' => $__row->id])
>
    <x-data-table.column title="Name" data-field="name" />
</x-data-table>

Footer

<x-data-table :data-src="$data" preset="vanilla">
    <x-data-table.column title="Product" data-field="product" />
    <x-data-table.column title="Amount" data-field="amount" />

    <x-data-table.footer>
        <tr>
            <td><strong>Total</strong></td>
            <td>{{ $data->sum('amount') }}</td>
        </tr>
    </x-data-table.footer>
</x-data-table>

Custom Assets

Inject custom CSS or JavaScript alongside the table:

<x-data-table :data-src="$data" preset="vanilla">
    <x-data-table.assets>
        <style>
            .my-custom-style { color: red; }
        </style>
    </x-data-table.assets>

    <x-data-table.column title="Name" data-field="name" />
</x-data-table>

Pagination

The component supports multiple pagination types via the data-src-pagination attribute:

Value	Type
`length_aware`	Full pagination with page numbers (default)
`simple`	Previous/Next only
`cursor`	Cursor-based pagination
`none`	No pagination

<x-data-table
    :data-src="App\Models\User::class"
    data-src-pagination="simple"
    per-page="10,25,50,all"
>
    ...
</x-data-table>

Special per-page values:

max — resolves to the max-per-page value (default: 1000)
all — shows all records (translatable label)

Loading Delay

Control when the loading overlay appears using Livewire delay modifiers:

<x-data-table :data-src="App\Models\User::class" loading-delay-modifier="short">
    ...
</x-data-table>

Valid values: shortest, shorter, short, long, longer, longest.

PHP Memory Limit

For large datasets, you can increase the memory limit per table:

<x-data-table :data-src="App\Models\LargeTable::class" php-max-memory="512M">
    ...
</x-data-table>

Eloquent Customization Interfaces

Implement these interfaces on your Eloquent models to customize how the data table interacts with your data:

`CustomizesDataTableQuery`

Provide a custom base query (e.g., eager-load relationships):

use ErickComp\LivewireDataTable\Data\Eloquent\CustomizesDataTableQuery;

class User extends Model implements CustomizesDataTableQuery
{
    public function dataTableQuery(): EloquentBuilder
    {
        return $this->newQuery()->with(['roles', 'department']);
    }
}

`CustomizesDataTableResults`

Take full control of data retrieval:

use ErickComp\LivewireDataTable\Data\Eloquent\CustomizesDataTableResults;

class User extends Model implements CustomizesDataTableResults
{
    public function dataTableData(
        EloquentBuilder $query,
        LwDataRetrievalParams $params,
    ): LengthAwarePaginator {
        return $query->paginate($params->perPage);
    }
}

`CustomizesDataTableSearch`

Override global search behavior:

use ErickComp\LivewireDataTable\Data\Eloquent\CustomizesDataTableSearch;

class User extends Model implements CustomizesDataTableSearch
{
    public function applyDataTableSearch(EloquentBuilder $query, LwDataRetrievalParams $params)
    {
        $query->where(function ($q) use ($params) {
            $q->whereLike('first_name', "%{$params->search}%")
              ->orWhereLike('last_name', "%{$params->search}%");
        });
    }
}

`CustomizesDataTableColumnsSearch`

Override per-column search behavior:

use ErickComp\LivewireDataTable\Data\Eloquent\CustomizesDataTableColumnsSearch;

class User extends Model implements CustomizesDataTableColumnsSearch
{
    public function applyDataTableColumnsSearch(EloquentBuilder $query, LwDataRetrievalParams $params)
    {
        foreach ($params->columnsSearch as $field => $value) {
            $query->whereLike($field, "%{$value}%");
        }
    }
}

`CustomizesDataTableSorting`

Override sorting behavior:

use ErickComp\LivewireDataTable\Data\Eloquent\CustomizesDataTableSorting;

class User extends Model implements CustomizesDataTableSorting
{
    public function applyDataTableSorting(EloquentBuilder $query, LwDataRetrievalParams $params)
    {
        if ($params->sortBy === 'full_name') {
            $query->orderBy('first_name', $params->sortDir)
                  ->orderBy('last_name', $params->sortDir);
            return;
        }

        $query->orderBy($params->sortBy, $params->sortDir);
    }
}

`LwDataRetrievalParams` API

When using a callable data source, the LwDataRetrievalParams object provides convenience methods:

Method	Description
`apply($data)`	Apply search, filters, and sorting to a query or collection
`applyAndPaginate($data)`	Apply all params and return a `LengthAwarePaginator`
`applyAndSimplePaginate($data)`	Apply all params and return a `Paginator`
`applyAndCursorPaginate($data)`	Apply all params and return a `CursorPaginator`
`paginate($data)`	Paginate without applying search/sort/filter
`simplePaginate($data)`	Simple paginate without applying params
`cursorPaginate($data)`	Cursor paginate without applying params

Available Properties

Property	Type	Description
`$params->page`	`?int`	Current page number
`$params->perPage`	`?string`	Items per page
`$params->pageName`	`string`	Query string parameter name for page
`$params->search`	`?string`	Global search term
`$params->columnsSearch`	`?array`	Per-column search values (`['field' => 'value']`)
`$params->filters`	`?array`	Applied filters
`$params->sortBy`	`?string`	Sort column
`$params->sortDir`	`?string`	Sort direction (`ASC` or `DESC`)

Presets

Presets define the complete visual appearance of the data table. The package ships with:

Preset	Description
`empty`	Bare minimum — no styles, serves as a base for other presets
`vanilla`	Minimal CSS with `lw-dt-*` class names and built-in styles
`bootstrap4v1`	Bootstrap 4 compatible classes and components
`tailwind3v1`	Tailwind CSS 3 utility classes with dark mode support

Presets support single inheritance via the extends key, allowing you to override only the parts you need.

Preset Resolution

Presets are resolved from two config locations (first match wins):

config('app.lw_dt_presets.<name>')
config('erickcomp-livewire-data-table.presets.<name>')

Preset Structure

Each preset can configure:

main-container — wrapper element classes
actions — search, filters, per-page, and bulk actions container
search — search input and button styling (with icon configuration)
filters — filter container, toggle button, apply button, individual filter items, and input styling per type
applied-filters — active filter badges and removal buttons
table — wrapper, thead, tbody, tfoot, th sorting indicators
loader-overlay — loading spinner template and CSS
pagination — views, container classes, per-page defaults
reload-alert — behavior when the serialized component cache expires
assets — CSS <style> blocks injected with the table
scripts — additional JavaScript

Internationalization

The package includes translation files for:

English (en)
Brazilian Portuguese (pt_BR)

Translation keys cover all UI labels: search button, filter labels, pagination text ("Showing X to Y of Z results"), "No data found" messages, per-page labels, and more.

To add a new locale, publish the translations and create a file at lang/vendor/erickcomp_lw_data_table/{locale}/messages.php.

Testing

The package uses Pest with Orchestra Testbench:

composer test

Static analysis with PHPStan (level 5):
