Once you have installed adonis-datagrid, make sure to register the provider inside start/app.js in order to make use of it.

const providers = [
  'adonis-datagrid/providers/DataGridProvider'
]

Using the module:

Send JSON response:

const DataGrid = use('DataGrid')

Route.get('/api/users', async () => {
  const config = {
    // base query
    query () {
      return use('App/Models/User').query()
    },

    // <GET param>:<DB column> for sortable columns
    sortable: {
      id: 'id',
      username: 'username',
      email: 'email',
      created: 'created_at',
      deleted (query, value) {
        query[+value ? 'whereNotNull' : 'whereNull']('deleted_at')
      }
    },

    // global searchable fields
    searchable: ['username', 'email'],

    // <GET param>:<DB column> for filterable columns
    filterable: {
      username: 'username',
    },

    // csv export options
    exportOptions: {
      fields: [
        {label: 'ID', value: 'id'},
        {label: 'Username', value: 'username'},
        {label: 'Email', value: 'email'},
        {label: 'Created', value: 'created_at'},
        {
          label: 'Deleted',
          value: row => row.deleted_at ? 'YES' : 'NO',
        },
      ]
    }
  }

  // send JSON response
  return DataGrid.paginate(config)
})

Send as CSV:

Route.get('/api/users/export', async ({response}) => {
  const csv = await DataGrid.export(/* config here */)
  response.header('content-type', 'text/csv')
  response.header('content-disposition', `attachment; filename="export.csv"`)

  // send CSV data
  return csv
})
