I want to have the summation of a column and want to show on the datable footer. I tried to pass the summation of the attribute from the Controller, but it is giving a 500 Error. Please, anyone, share me the code for taking out a sum of an attribute and show in the Datatable Footer.
return datatables()->of($query)->make('false')
->with('total_amount', $query->sum('amount'));
Following code block may help you:
->with('total', function() use ($query) {
return $query->sum('amount');
})
