An simple example

In your controller:, _(*5)

use Rafwell\Simplegrid\Grid;

In your function:, _(*6)

$Grid = new Grid(Employe::query(), 'Employes');

$Grid->fields([
  'birth_date'=>'Birthday',
  'first_name'=>'First Name',
  'last_name'=>'Last Name',
  'gender'=>[
          'label'=>'Gender',
          'field'=>"case when gender = 'M' then 'Male' else 'Female' end"
      ]
]);
return view('yourview', ['grid'=>$Grid]);

In your view:, _(*7)

{!!$grid->make()!!}

The result will be like this: , _(*8)

A more complex example

Change the code of your controller to:, _(*9)

$Grid->fields([
    'birth_date'=>'Birthday',
    'first_name'=>'First Name',
    'last_name'=>'Last Name',
    'gender'=>[
        'label'=>'Gender',
        'field'=>"case when gender = 'M' then 'Male' else 'Female' end"
    ]
])
->actionFields([
    'emp_no' //The fields used for process actions. those not are showed 
])
->advancedSearch([
    'birth_date'=>['type'=>'date','label'=>'Birthday'],
    'first_name'=>'First Name', // It's a shortcut for ['type'=>'text', 'label'=>'First Name'],
    'last_name'=>[
        //omiting the label. I'ts a shortcut, like above
        'type'=>'text',
        'sanitize'=>false //This field will not be sanitized
    ],
    'gender'=>[
        'type'=>'select',
        'label'=>'Gender',
        'options'=>['Male'=>'Male', 'Female'=>'Female'] //The key is the value of option
    ]
]);

$Grid->action('Edit', 'test/edit/{emp_no}')
->action('Delete', 'test/{emp_no}', [
    'confirm'=>'Do you with so continue?',
    'method'=>'DELETE',
]);

$Grid->checkbox(true, 'emp_no');
$Grid->bulkAction('Delete selected itens', '/test/bulk-delete');

The result will be like this: The advanced search allow you search field by field. The rendered is like this: , _(*10)

Your model has relationships? Try it:

//Make your query using eloquent orm normally
$Employe = Employe::join('supervisors', 'supervisors.id','=','employees.supervisor_id');

$Grid = new Grid($Employe, 'Employes');

//Here, the key or array of fields is the name of the field. so, you can concatenate with the table name
//You can make sub queries too
$Grid->fields([
    'birth_date'=>'Birthday', //If you not explicit the name of table, we use the principal table of query builded. in this case, employees's
    'first_name'=>'First Name',
    'last_name'=>'Last Name', 
    'gender'=>[
        'label'=>'Gender',
        'field'=>"case when gender = 'M' then 'Male' else 'Female' end" //This is a calculated field too
    ],
    'supervisors.name'=>'Supervisor Name', //There the example with relationship
    'virtual_field'=>[
        'label'=>'My first virtual field',
        'field'=>'(select column from table where...)' //Obviously, this subquery must return only 1 row
    ]
]);
//Continue code...
//Easier than that? :)

Mutators

All mutators get of the principal table will work normally when the renderer called. For personalize or trait an line before show, for make an visual concatenate or formatter, you can use the processLine method:, _(*11)

$Grid->fields([
  'birth_date'=>'Birthday',
  'first_name'=>'First Name',
  'last_name'=>'Last Name',
  'gender'=>'Gender'
])
->processLine(function($row){
    //This function will be called for each row
    $row['gender'] = $row['gender'] == 'M' ? 'Male' : 'Female';
    //Do more you need on this row
    return $row; //Do not forget to return the row
});

In some case, some actions cannot be called. For example, if you cannot allow edit button if the status is equal 2:, _(*12)

$Grid->fields([
  'birth_date'=>'Birthday',
  'first_name'=>'First Name',
  'last_name'=>'Last Name',
  'gender'=>'Gender',
  'status'=>'Status'//It's a integer on database. If 2 not allowed edit
])
>action('Edit', 'test/edit/{emp_no}')
->processLine(function($row){
    //This function will be called for each row
    if($row['status']==2)
        unset($row['gridActions']['edit']);
    //Do more you need on this row
    return $row; //Do not forget to return the row
});
//Awesome!
