Overview
This library acts as a server-side processor for the Datatables plugin, written for jQuery.
The plugin made for the jQuery JS library is a configurable table renderer for the front-end. This library is meant for interacting with data on the server side that may be requested from the front-end plugin.
Datatables processes and manipulates data in one of two ways: client side and server side.
Communication Protocols
Both versions of the Datatables communication protocol are supported.
- Legacy (version 1.9 and lower)
- Modern/Current (version 1.10 and higher)
Features
Features in this library:
- Supports and auto-detects both Datables protocols
- Able to process, filter, order, paginate data on server side
Server-Side Processing
The strength of this library lies in its ability to perform server side pagination, filtering, ordering, and other result set manipulation.
This is a big advantage when large data sets are involved. Problems arise with the use of large data sets and the way that the Datatables jQuery plugin handles them when client-side processing.
Installation
This library uses Composer as its package manager.
Add this library to your composer.json in one of two ways.
composer.json
"require": { "mclassic/datatables": "dev-master" }
