README

Backend-driven dynamic tables for Laravel + Inertia.js. Define your entire table in PHP - columns, sorting, searching, pagination, and display formatting - and the frontend renders it automatically. No duplicated definitions, no frontend table logic, no state management.

Quick Example

class CompanyTable extends Table
{
    protected string $defaultSort = '-created_at';

    protected function columns(): array
    {
        return [
            LinkColumn::make('name', 'Name')
                ->route('companies.show', ['company' => ':id'])
                ->sortable(),
            TextColumn::make('email', 'Email')->sortable(),
            EnumColumn::make('status', 'Status')->sortable(),
            BooleanColumn::make('active', 'Active'),
            DateTimeColumn::make('created_at', 'Created')->sortable(),
            ActionsColumn::make(),
            Column::data('id'),
        ];
    }

    protected function searchable(): array
    {
        return ['name', 'email'];
    }
}

Pass it to your Inertia page:

return Inertia::render('Companies/Index', [
    'companies' => CompanyTable::make(Company::query())->paginate(),
]);

Render it on the frontend:

import { InertiaTable } from 'inertia-table-react';

export default function Index({ companies }) {
    return <InertiaTable tableData={companies} />;
}

That's it. Search, sorting, pagination, and all cell rendering handled automatically.
