Extras

Getting an index page

May you have to call a page in index() if not ajax request, we have getPage(), can you override method or just to pass data by constructor, also you can redirect to another page passing the route name;

//in or controller you can pass
class YourLaravelController extends Controller {
   public function __construct()
   {  
      //Passing view and data
       $this->indexView = "youCrudBlade"; //default "crud"
       $this->indexData = [
          "pageTitle" => "Page title for exemple"
       ];

       // OR redirect to named route
       $this->indexRedirectRouteName ="myroute.indexpage"
   }
}

Autoload model entity

By default it try access a model with same name of controller, you can to pass your entity by name or object in constructor

class YourLaravelController extends Controller {
   public function __construct(Mymodel $m)
   {
       $this->Model = $m;
       // or
       $this->modelName = "Mymodel";
       // or Just create a model same name of controller, from this controller sample "YourLaravel"
   }
}

By default it return a Laravel paginate getting limit by request, can you override method or call a customMethod from your entitiy passing $modelGetMethod
