In some cases, we need to manually set the total records of our DataTables
and skip its internal counting functionality.
To achieve this, we can use setTotalRecords($count)
api.
use DataTables;
Route::get('user-data', function() {
$model = App\User::query();
return DataTables::eloquent($model)
->setTotalRecords(100)
->toJson();
});
