Delete Record using jQuery Ajax in Laravel

In this post, I'm sharing how to delete records using jquery ajax in Laravel 8. Usually, the ajax request is implemented so that our web page will not reloading after deleting the record.

 

In this example, we have a controller, model, route, and blade. Just continue to read the below steps:

 

Route:

Route::resource('posts', PostsController::class);

 

Controller:

/**
* Remove the specified resource from storage.
*
* @param  \App\Models\Post  $post
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function destroy(Post $post)
{
    $post->delete();

    return response('Post deleted successfully.', 200);
}

 

Model:

<?php

namespace App\Models;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class Post extends Model
{
    protected $fillable = [
        'title',
        'description',
        'body'
    ];

    use HasFactory;
}

 

Blade:

<!DOCTYPE html>
    <html>

    <head>
        <meta charset="utf-8" />
        <meta name="csrf-token" content="{{ csrf_token() }}">
        <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
        <title>Delete Record using Ajax in Laravel 8 - codeanddeploy.com</title>

        <script type="text/javascript">
          $(document).ready(function() {

            $('.delete-form').on('submit', function(e) {
              e.preventDefault();

              $.ajax({
                  type: 'post',
                  headers: {
                      'X-CSRF-TOKEN': $('meta[name="csrf-token"]').attr('content')
                  },
                  url: $(this).data('route'),
                  data: {
                    '_method': 'delete'
                  },
                  success: function (response, textStatus, xhr) {
                    alert(response)
                    window.location='/posts'
                  }
              });
            })
          });
        </script>
    </head>

    <body>
        <div class="container mt-5">
            @if(Session::get('success', false))
              <?php $data = Session::get('success'); ?>
              @if (is_array($data))
                  @foreach ($data as $msg)
                      <div class="alert alert-success" role="alert">
                          <i class="fa fa-check"></i>
                          {{ $msg }}
                      </div>
                  @endforeach
              @else
                  <div class="alert alert-success" role="alert">
                      <i class="fa fa-check"></i>
                      {{ $data }}
                  </div>
              @endif
            @endif
            <table class="table table-striped" id="users-table">

              </thead>
              <tbody>
                @foreach($posts as $post)
                  <tr>
                    <td>{{$post->title}}</td>
                    <td>{{$post->description}}</td>
                    <td>{{$post->body}}</td>
                    <td>
                        <form method="post" class="delete-form" data-route="{{route('posts.destroy',$post->id)}}">
                            @method('delete')
                            <button type="submit" class="btn btn-danger btn-sm">Delete</button>
                        </form>
                    </td>
                  </tr>
                @endforeach
              </tbody>
            </table>
        </div>
    </body>
</html>
