Field Name	Data Type
id	int(PK)
created_at	timestamp
name	varchar(255)

Code Sample

$this->form[] = ['label'=>'Category','name'=>'categories_id','type'=>'select2','datatable'=>'categories,name','datatable_ajax'=>false];

in datatable attribute, first value is a table name, and the second value is a field wich you want to show as option label. As you can see there is datatable_ajax attribute which you can set true or false to make it as an ajax request or show all the data at the same time.

Make A Condition to the Query

$this->form[] = ['label'=>'Category','name'=>'categories_id','type'=>'select2','datatable'=>'categories,name','datatable_where'=>'id != 3'];

Add datatable_where attribute and fill it with where query like in sql.

Customize the label of option

$this->form[] = ['label'=>'Category','name'=>'categories_id','type'=>'select2','datatable'=>'categories,name','datatable_format'=>"id,' - ',name"];

Add datatable_format attribute and fill it with a format. Specify the field name wich you want to show. You may specify the field more than one. Sparate it with a comma. If there is a word in addition to the field name, you must put a single quote in the prefix and suffix to its word. (See the example).
