Delete method with Sweet Alert in Laravel

Question

I\'m testing a method using Sweet Alert, to improve the messages issued by the Javascript alert method with the laravel framework.

1 - I downloaded the files sweetal

Answer 1

I think my code is closer to the Laravel framework, it has CSRF and it uses the Delete method; also it is more easy to integrate.

Laravel 8 and SweetAlert 2

UserController:

public function destroy(User $user)
{
    $user->delete();
    toast('Your file has been deleted !', 'success');
    return redirect(route('user.index'));
}

Delete html form: bootstrap used for css classes

<form id="delete-user-form" action="{{route('user.destroy',$user)}}" method="POST">
    @csrf
    @method('DELETE')
    <button onclick="return false" id="delete-user" class="btn btn-danger">Delete</button>
</form>

jQuery

 $('#delete-post').on('click', function (e) {
            e.preventDefault();
            let id = $(this).data('id');
            Swal.fire({
                title: 'Are you sure ?',
                text: "You won't be able to revert this !",
                icon: 'warning',
                showCancelButton: true,
                confirmButtonColor: '#3085d6',
                cancelButtonColor: '#d33',
                confirmButtonText: 'Yes, delete it!'
            }).then((result) => {
                if (result.isConfirmed) {
                    $('#delete-post-form').submit();
                }
            })
        });

<script>
    $('.deletebutton').on('click', function () {
        // return confirm('Are you sure want to delete?');
        event.preventDefault();//this will hold the url

I have implemented this code in my laravel project and delete data by using route name with slug. This code is working for me. And i also delete row from table without reload() by using with id. So try this code let me know it's working for you or not.

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

function confirmDelete(slug) {
    swal({
            title: "Are you sure!",
            type: "error",
            confirmButtonClass: "btn-danger",
            confirmButtonText: "Yes!",
            showCancelButton: true,
        })
        .then((willDelete) => {
            if (willDelete.value == true) {
                var url = '{{ route("instrument.delete", ":slug") }}';
                url = url.replace(':slug', slug);
                $.ajax({
                    url: url,
                    type: "POST",
                    data: {
                        '_method': 'DELETE'
                    },
                    success: function (data) {
                        if (data.status == 1) {
                            swal({
                                title: "Success!",
                                type: "success",
                                text: "Instrument has been deleted \n Click OK",
                                icon: "success",
                                confirmButtonClass: "btn btn-outline-info",
                            });
                            $('#tr' + data.slug).remove();
                        }

                    },
                    error: function (data) {
                        swal({
                            title: 'Opps...',
                            text: data.message,
                            type: 'error',
                            timer: '1500'
                        })
                    }
                })
            }
        });
}

You are Performing action on button click irrespective of whether you confirm or cancelled the deletion.

<a href="" class="button" data-id="{{$user->id}}">Delete</a>

Jquery and Ajax:

$(document).on('click', '.button', function (e) {
    e.preventDefault();
    var id = $(this).data('id');
    swal({
            title: "Are you sure!",
            type: "error",
            confirmButtonClass: "btn-danger",
            confirmButtonText: "Yes!",
            showCancelButton: true,
        },
        function() {
            $.ajax({
                type: "POST",
                url: "{{url('/destroy')}}",
                data: {id:id},
                success: function (data) {
                              //
                    }         
            });
    });
});

And:

public function destroy(Request $request)
{
    User::find($request->id)->delete();
    return redirect()->route('users.index')
                    ->with('success','User deleted successfully');
}

in the view :

<button onclick="deleteItem(this)" data-id="{{ $user->id }}">Delete</button>

in the Jquery and Ajax :

<script type="application/javascript">

        function deleteItem(e){

            let id = e.getAttribute('data-id');

            const swalWithBootstrapButtons = Swal.mixin({
                customClass: {
                    confirmButton: 'btn btn-success',
                    cancelButton: 'btn btn-danger'
                },
                buttonsStyling: false
            });

            swalWithBootstrapButtons.fire({
                title: 'Are you sure?',
                text: "You won't be able to revert this!",
                icon: 'warning',
                showCancelButton: true,
                confirmButtonText: 'Yes, delete it!',
                cancelButtonText: 'No, cancel!',
                reverseButtons: true
            }).then((result) => {
                if (result.value) {
                    if (result.isConfirmed){

                        $.ajax({
                            type:'DELETE',
                            url:'{{url("/user/delete")}}/' +id,
                            data:{
                                "_token": "{{ csrf_token() }}",
                            },
                            success:function(data) {
                                if (data.success){
                                    swalWithBootstrapButtons.fire(
                                        'Deleted!',
                                        'Your file has been deleted.',
                                        "success"
                                    );
                                    $("#"+id+"").remove(); // you can add name div to remove
                                }

                            }
                        });

                    }

                } else if (
                    result.dismiss === Swal.DismissReason.cancel
                ) {
                    swalWithBootstrapButtons.fire(
                        'Cancelled',
                        'Your imaginary file is safe :)',
                        'error'
                    );
                }
            });

        }

    </script>

in the Controller:

public function destroy(User $user, Request $request, $id)
    {
        if ($request->ajax()){

            $user = User::findOrFail($id);

            if ($user){

                $user->delete();

                return response()->json(array('success' => true));
            }

        }
    }

in the Route

Route::delete('/user/delete/{id}','UserController@destroy');
