How to Make Datatables Faster By Using Ajax

Datatables Ajax Load

Here's how you can make a Datatables not loading all the rows in one page load, but rather doing ajax call per table page.

<html>
<head>
<title>Datatable</title>
<link href="//cdn.datatables.net/1.10.20/css/jquery.dataTables.min.css"/>
<script src="//cdn.datatables.net/1.10.20/js/jquery.dataTables.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<table id ="datatable"></table>
<script>
$("#datatable").DataTable({
    dom: "Bfrtip",
    processing: true,
    serverSide: true,
    ajax : "http://localhost/data",
});
</script>
</body>
</html>

Just simple as that actually, the hard thing you gonna do is on the Server side. In PHP you can check whatever $_POST and $_GET being sent from Datatables, you can get that information to do table filtering, paging, sorting, etc.

In a web desktop based software, displaying tabular data is one thing that we do almost all the time. Making our table sort able, searchable, page able, is a must. We don't want our user to mad at us because the performance not doing good. If you don't now There's Datatables Javascript library.

Since the presence of React, i would say this is kind of approach is kind of old fashion way  to display a table using Javascript. But still people still use it, even me, because it's convenient, simple and easy to do.

MySQL and MariaDB password As already mentioned in the title of this blog, this error message sometimes occurred when we are trying to update our root password database, either MySQL or MariaDB, The error says: ERROR 1348 (HY000): Column 'Password' is not updatable This is because if we use this SQL command to update our database root password, and it turn out to be Restricted by MySQL to use update on mysql database.

Spring Boot is a handy tool that simplifies the development of Spring Framework applications by reducing the need for cumbersome configuration. In this tutorial, I'll guide you through creating a Spring Boot application using the Netbeans IDE.

Microservice Spring with Apache Kafka Today, I want to share how to use Kafka. It's quite interesting once you get the hang of it, and I hope my explanation will make it a bit easier for you. So, Kafka is primarily known as an asynchronous messaging queuing system. This means it allows different parts of your application to communicate with each other without waiting for immediate responses. However, there are times when you might need a more immediate reply from another service in your project. Luckily, Kafka can handle this too. Here’s how it works: The client side sends a message to the server side via Kafka. This message includes a special identifier in the Kafka header request, known as KafkaHeaders.CORRELATION_ID, along with a topic where the server should respond. The server, after processing the request, sends a message back to the same topic with the same correlation ID. This way, the client knows that the message is a response to its initial request and can act accordingl...
