Do I need Datatables.net Editor to connect Serverside process to SQLite database or csv tables?

wilkyway

I am new to Datatables and so far very impressed with its capabilities. I am trying understand how I get Serverside to connect to either my SQLite database or csv files. There are 2 csv files one of 360,000 rows and a second of 210,000 rows so it makes sense to offload filtering/searching to the server side of things. The end user undertakes searches and then export output to a csv file. There is NO updating of the source data only enquiries.

Thank you

Hi,

Thanks for your kind words. No, you don't need Editor to do server-side processing. The server-side processing protocol is fully documented and you can implement it with any platform you wish.

We do have our Editor libraries for PHP, .NET and Node.js which implement server-side processing and you could use them if you like. The server-side comonents for it are open source and there is a description of using them without Editor on the client-side here.
