<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#usersListTable').DataTable({
"processing": true,
"serverSide": true,
"order": [],
"ajax": "fetch.php"
});
});
/*  add user model */
$('.add-model').click(function () {
$('#add-modal').modal('show');
});
// add form submit
$('#add-form').submit(function(e){
e.preventDefault();
// ajax
$.ajax({
url:"add-edit-delete.php",
type: "POST",
data: $(this).serialize(), // get all form field value in serialize form
success: function(){
var oTable = $('#usersListTable').dataTable(); 
oTable.fnDraw(false);
$('#add-modal').modal('hide');
$('#add-form').trigger("reset");
}
});
});  
/* edit user function */
$('body').on('click', '.btn-edit', function () {
var id = $(this).data('id');
$.ajax({
url:"add-edit-delete.php",
type: "POST",
data: {
id: id,
mode: 'edit' 
},
dataType : 'json',
success: function(result){
$('#id').val(result.id);
$('#name').val(result.name);
$('#email').val(result.email);
$('#edit-modal').modal('show');
}
});
});
// add form submit
$('#update-form').submit(function(e){
e.preventDefault();
// ajax
$.ajax({
url:"add-edit-delete.php",
type: "POST",
data: $(this).serialize(), // get all form field value in serialize form
success: function(){
var oTable = $('#usersListTable').dataTable(); 
oTable.fnDraw(false);
$('#edit-modal').modal('hide');
$('#update-form').trigger("reset");
}
});
});  
/* DELETE FUNCTION */
$('body').on('click', '.btn-delete', function () {
var id = $(this).data('id');
if (confirm("Are You sure want to delete !")) {
$.ajax({
url:"add-edit-delete.php",
type: "POST",
data: {
id: id,
mode: 'delete' 
},
dataType : 'json',
success: function(result){
var oTable = $('#usersListTable').dataTable(); 
oTable.fnDraw(false);
}
});
} 
return false;
});
</script>
</html>

Step 3 – Include Datatable Libraries

Include jQuery dataTable js libraries and bootstrap libraries into your index.php file; as shown below:

<!-- DataTables CSS library -->
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="https://cdn.datatables.net/1.11.3/css/jquery.dataTables.min.css"/>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.0.0/css/bootstrap.min.css" integrity="sha384-Gn5384xqQ1aoWXA+058RXPxPg6fy4IWvTNh0E263XmFcJlSAwiGgFAW/dAiS6JXm" crossorigin="anonymous">
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.4.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.0.0/js/bootstrap.min.js" integrity="sha384-JZR6Spejh4U02d8jOt6vLEHfe/JQGiRRSQQxSfFWpi1MquVdAyjUar5+76PVCmYl" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
<!-- DataTables JS library -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://cdn.datatables.net/1.11.3/js/jquery.dataTables.min.js"></script>

Step 4 – Create Add Edit Delete Record Ajax Function

Create jQuery ajax functions to insert, update, delete data from MySQL database; as shown below:

$(document).ready(function(){
$('#usersListTable').DataTable({
"processing": true,
"serverSide": true,
"order": [],
"ajax": "fetch.php"
});
});
/*  add user model */
$('.add-model').click(function () {
$('#add-modal').modal('show');
});
// add form submit
$('#add-form').submit(function(e){
e.preventDefault();
// ajax
$.ajax({
url:"add-edit-delete.php",
type: "POST",
data: $(this).serialize(), // get all form field value in serialize form
success: function(){
var oTable = $('#usersListTable').dataTable(); 
oTable.fnDraw(false);
$('#add-modal').modal('hide');
$('#add-form').trigger("reset");
}
});
});  
/* edit user function */
$('body').on('click', '.btn-edit', function () {
var id = $(this).data('id');
$.ajax({
url:"add-edit-delete.php",
type: "POST",
data: {
id: id,
mode: 'edit' 
},
dataType : 'json',
success: function(result){
$('#id').val(result.id);
$('#name').val(result.name);
$('#email').val(result.email);
$('#edit-modal').modal('show');
}
});
});
// add form submit
$('#update-form').submit(function(e){
e.preventDefault();
// ajax
$.ajax({
url:"add-edit-delete.php",
type: "POST",
data: $(this).serialize(), // get all form field value in serialize form
success: function(){
var oTable = $('#usersListTable').dataTable(); 
oTable.fnDraw(false);
$('#edit-modal').modal('hide');
$('#update-form').trigger("reset");
}
});
});  
/* DELETE FUNCTION */
$('body').on('click', '.btn-delete', function () {
var id = $(this).data('id');
if (confirm("Are You sure want to delete !")) {
$.ajax({
url:"add-edit-delete.php",
type: "POST",
data: {
id: id,
mode: 'delete' 
},
dataType : 'json',
success: function(result){
var oTable = $('#usersListTable').dataTable(); 
oTable.fnDraw(false);
}
});
} 
return false;
});

Step 5 – Fetch data from Mysql DB and Display in Datatable List Page

Create fetch.php file; which is used to fetch data from MySQL database using ajax and display it into your index.php file; as shown below:

<?php 
// Database connection info 
$dbDetails = array( 
'host' => 'localhost', 
'user' => 'root', 
'pass' => '', 
'db'   => 'demos' 
); 
// mysql db table to use 
$table = 'users'; 
// Table's primary key 
$primaryKey = 'id'; 
// Array of database columns which should be read and sent back to DataTables. 
// The `db` parameter represents the column name in the database.  
// The `dt` parameter represents the DataTables column identifier. 
$columns = array( 
array( 'db' => 'name', 'dt' => 0 ), 
array( 'db' => 'email',  'dt' => 1 ), 
array( 
'db'        => 'created_at', 
'dt'        => 2, 
'formatter' => function( $d, $row ) { 
return date( 'jS M Y', strtotime($row['created_at'])); 
} 
), 
array( 
'db'        => 'id',
'dt'        => 3, 
'formatter' => function( $d, $row ) { 
return '<a href="javascript:void(0)" class="btn btn-primary btn-edit" data-id="'.$row['id'].'"> Edit </a> <a href="javascript:void(0)" class="btn btn-danger btn-delete ml-2" data-id="'.$row['id'].'"> Delete </a>'; 
} 
) 
); 
// Include SQL query processing class 
require 'ssp.class.php'; 
// Output data as json format 
echo json_encode( 
SSP::simple( $_GET, $dbDetails, $table, $primaryKey, $columns ));

Note that;- The SSP class handles the database related operations. It contains some helper functions to build SQL queries for DataTables server-side processing. You can download from this url :- https://github.com/tutsmake/Datatables-Server-side-Processing/blob/main/ssp.class.php.

Step 6 – Create Add Edit Delete Record From MySQL Database Function

Create a new file name add-edit-delete.php and inside this file create PHP functions with MySQL query to insert, update, delete data from MySQL database; as shown below:

<?php
// Database connection info 
$host='localhost';
$username='root';
$password='';
$dbname = "demos";
$conn=mysqli_connect($host,$username,$password,"$dbname");
if ($_POST['mode'] === 'add') {
$name = $_POST['name'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
mysqli_query($conn, "INSERT INTO users (name,email)
VALUES ('$name','$email')");
echo json_encode(true);
}  
if ($_POST['mode'] === 'edit') {
$result = mysqli_query($conn,"SELECT * FROM users WHERE id='" . $_POST['id'] . "'");
$row= mysqli_fetch_array($result);
echo json_encode($row);
}   
if ($_POST['mode'] === 'update') {
mysqli_query($conn,"UPDATE users set  name='" . $_POST['name'] . "', email='" . $_POST['email'] . "' WHERE id='" . $_POST['id'] . "'");
echo json_encode(true);
}  
if ($_POST['mode'] === 'delete') {
mysqli_query($conn, "DELETE FROM users WHERE id='" . $_POST["id"] . "'");
echo json_encode(true);
}  
?>
