Plain PHP

Use Core without Laravel.

use ReportKit\Core\Date\DateRangeChunker;
use ReportKit\Core\Table\PseudoPaginator;
use ReportKit\Core\Table\DataTableResponder;
use ReportKit\Core\Source\MergedRowSource;

$merged = new MergedRowSource([$liveSource, $archiveSource], 'trip_id', 'booked_at', 'desc');
$rows = $merged->getRows($filters);
$page = (new PseudoPaginator())->slice($rows, $start, $length);
return (new DataTableResponder())->respond($_GET, $page, count($rows), count($rows), $merged->getSummary($rows));
