Hi Guys
Can anyone help me with getting koolgrid/koolphp working in Laravel ?
I've noticed that if Im loading the koolajax, koolgrid and advancedarraydatasource the only call that autoloads into the global namespace is the advancedarraydatasource.
Thanks
Shaun

OK, got over that hurdle, but I cant load the koolgrid classes in the recommended manner documented with laravel.
This however does work.

$koolgridpath = base_path() . '/public/koolcontrols';
require $koolgridpath . '\KoolGrid\koolgrid.php';
require $koolgridpath . '\KoolGrid\ext\datasources\AdvancedArrayDataSource.php';
require $koolgridpath . '\KoolAjax\koolajax.php';
require $koolgridpath . '\KoolAutoComplete\koolautocomplete.php';

The issue I have now is that it seems like I'm not referencing the scriptfolder for koolgrid correctly.

$grid->scriptFolder =  $koolgridpath . '/KoolGrid/';

Here is my current result.

Please set the scriptFolder absolute path like this:

$grid->scriptFolder = "/control/public/koolcontrols/KoolGrid";

Thanks Pete
I got it right with

$grid->scriptFolder =  "http://control.dev/koolcontrols/KoolGrid/";

Then after looking at your post :

$grid->scriptFolder =  /koolcontrols/KoolGrid/";

"
this works great ;)
Just 1 more issue , but let me play a bit first ;)

ok, everything loads now but ..... drum roll.
I cant page through the records.
You can click on next to go to the next page. The ajax loader animation plays but you remain on the same page.

ok, looking at the Laravel logs it seems like Lavarel has something to do with this issue ;) ( The pains of learning a framework ;) )

So it seems to be a token mismatch exception brought on by the AJAX post.
In the Laravel documentation I can either Excluding URIs From CSRF Protection (which I would rather not do) or
as documented :
In addition to checking for the CSRF token as a POST parameter, the Laravel VerifyCsrfToken middleware will also check for the X-CSRF-TOKEN request header. You could, for example, store the token in a "meta" tag:

<meta name="csrf-token" content="{{ csrf_token() }}">

Once you have created the meta tag, you can instruct a library like jQuery to add the token to all request headers. This provides simple, convenient CSRF protection for your AJAX based applications:

$.ajaxSetup({
        headers: {
            'X-CSRF-TOKEN': $('meta[name="csrf-token"]').attr('content')
        }
}); 

I'm just not sure how to implement the above. I'll test the Excluding URIs From CSRF Protection for now.

ok, by adding the uri in my case being (portal/cdrbrowser), which where the koolgrid is residing to VerifyCsrfToken middleware
the grid and koolajax works like a boss.

protected $except = [
        //  'awesome/*',
          'portal/cdrbrowser',
    ];

But i would really prefer to use the X-CSRF-TOKEN method mentioned in the above post.

That's great that you made it work. I have recorded this issue as a suggestion to improve grid and ajax to work with the csrf token.

cool :)
