My first time working with Datatables and SweetAlert2. 

I have a problem in laravel for confirming the post delete by sweetalert2.

I have the following code but the confirm modal is useless, as the request pass it and user don't even have time to decide. I have to figure it out to stop request executing and waits for user decision (Ok/Cancel).

<script>
        $(document).ready(function () {
            const userTable = $('#UserFacultyTable').DataTable({
                processing: true,
                fixedHeader: true,
                ajax: {
                    url: '/Assign/GetUserFaculty',
                    dataSrc: ''
                },
                rowId: "id",
                columns: [
                    {
                        data: 'id',
                        className: "center",
                        title: 'Actions',
                        render: function (data) {
                        return '<a href="Assign/DeleteUserInFaculty/' + data + '" class="btn btn-danger" id="del"> Remove </a>';
                        }
                                                            
                    }
                ],
                order: [2, 'asc']
            });
            $('#UserFacultyTable tbody').on('click', 'id="del"', function () {          
                      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) {
                          Swal.fire(
                            'Deleted!',
                            'Your file has been deleted.',
                            'success'
                          )
                        }
                      });
                  });
        });
    </script>

A better option is to put javascript on the a tag instead of having a link.

You need to prevent the browser from following the link.

You'll also need to navigate to the link, or perform an AJAX request, when the user confirms the deletion. Otherwise, nothing will actually be deleted.

JavaScript

$('#UserFacultyTable tbody').on('click', 'id="del"', function (e) {
    e.preventDefault();
    
    const url = this.href;
    Swal.fire({
        ...
    }).then(result => {
        if (result.isConfirmed) {
            location.assign(url);
        }
    });
});
