multiple datatables with different datasources

simondatas

Hello,

I have multiple datatables like that and I would like to initialise them all with the same design but different datasources :

table = $('#allTweetsTable').DataTable({
                select: true,
                order: [[ 5, "desc" ]],
                "ajax": {
                    "type": "GET",
                    "url": myPath+"/refresh",
                    "dataSrc": function(data){
                        //console.log(data);
                        newDatas=data;
                        //console.log(newDatas);
                        return newDatas;

                    },


                },
                columns:[
                    {data :  "lang",width: '40px'},
                    {data : "source",width: '70px'},
                    {data : "author.screen_name",width: '70px'},
                    {data : "author.description",width: '250px'},
                    {data : "full_text",width: '300px'},
                    {data : "created_at"},
                    {data : "author.location"},
                    {data : "author.followers_count"},
                    {data : "author.verified"},
                    {data : "author.name"}


                ],
                scrollY:        "700px",
                scrollX:        true,
                scrollCollapse: true,
                fixedColumns: true



            });

            table1 = $('#officialsTable').DataTable({
                order: [[ 5, "desc" ]],
                "ajax": {
                    "type": "GET",
                    "url": myPath+"/refreshOfficials",
                    "dataSrc": function(data){
                        //console.log(data);
                        newDatas=data;
                        //console.log(newDatas);
                        return newDatas;

                    },

                },
                columns:[
                    {data :  "lang"},
                    {data : "source"},
                    {data : "author.screen_name"},
                    {data : "author.description"},
                    {data : "full_text"},
                    {data : "created_at"},
                    {data : "author.location"},
                    {data : "author.followers_count"},
                    {data : "author.verified"},
                    {data : "author.name"}


                ]

            });

Is there a way I can do that without repeating all this code ?

Thanks a lot !!
