Question 1

How to install laravel-enso tables without the full Enso ecosystem?

Accepted Answer

The package can be installed via Composer independently, but you'll need to manually set up the Vue components and ensure compatibility with your Laravel project, as noted in the README's standalone usage mention. Refer to the external documentation for detailed steps.

Question 2

Can I customize the Bulma theme in laravel-enso tables?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but it requires overriding CSS or modifying the Vue components directly, as the theming is built around Bulma out of the box. This might involve extra work compared to more theme-agnostic solutions.

Question 3

What's the difference between laravel-enso tables and laravel-datatables by yajra?

Accepted Answer

Laravel-enso tables focuses on Vue.js frontend components with JSON configuration, while yajra/laravel-datatables is more backend-oriented with jQuery integration. Enso tables offer better reactivity for Vue-based apps, but yajra's package is lighter for server-side processing without a specific frontend framework.

Question 4

How to handle real-time data updates with this package?

Accepted Answer

It supports server-side processing, so real-time updates would require manual implementation via Laravel events or WebSockets, as the package doesn't include built-in real-time features beyond standard Vue reactivity.

Question 5

Is there a way to export data in CSV format using laravel-enso tables?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the unlimited exporting feature includes CSV format, along with others like Excel, as mentioned in the Key Features. Configuration is done through the JSON template for export options.

Question 6

What are common setup issues when integrating laravel-enso tables?

Accepted Answer

Common issues include dependency conflicts with other Laravel packages, Vue component registration errors, and JSON template syntax mistakes. Checking the external documentation and ensuring compatibility with your Laravel version is crucial.
