[](#usage)

```
// Laravel:
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use  Markese\Datatables\Datatables;

class Controller extends BaseController
{
    public function datatablesExample (Request $request)
    {
        $users = Users::query();
        return Datatables::response($users, $request);
    }
}
```

```
// Datatables:
$('#example').DataTable( {
    "serverSide": true,
    "processing": true,
    "ajax": "datatablesexample",
    columns : [
        // The "name" property in the column initialization for Model attributes are optional.

        // This works...
        { "data": "id", "title": "Id" },

        // And so does this...
        { "data": "name", "title": "Name", "name": "name" },
        { "data": "email", "title": "Number", "name": "email" },

        // The "name" properties in your Datatables column initialization
        // will eager load the relations of the Model you are querying against
        // when you use Laravel dot notation...
        { "data": "groups[].name", "title": "Groups", "name": "groups.*.name" },

        // The "data" properties in the column initialization represent the displayed data
        // which is accessible using standard JavaScript bracket notation...
        { "data": "groups[].roles[].title", "title": "Roles", "name": "groups.*.roles.*.title" }
    ]
} );
```
