I’m mantaining an old project, started with laravel 5.4, and now lifted up to laravel 8.
It’s all working.
Now I’m in need to install laravel-datatables.
Looking at doc, I discarded v10 because it requires Laravel 9+
For same reason, I discarded also v9
So I’m trying to install laravel-datatables v8
composer require yajra/laravel-datatables-oracle:^8.0
I got this
Your requirements could not be resolved to an installable set of packages.
Problem 1
- Root composer.json requires yajra/laravel-datatables-oracle 8.0 -> satisfiable by yajra/laravel-datatables-oracle[v8.0.0].
- yajra/laravel-datatables-oracle v8.0.0 requires illuminate/database 5.4.*|5.5.* -> found illuminate/database[v5.4.0, ..., 5.5.x-dev] but these were not loaded, likely because it conflicts with another require.
Installation failed, reverting ./composer.json and ./composer.lock to their original content.
I am not able to understand which package/require is conflicting with this package.
This my package.json
"require": {
"php": "^7.3|^8.0",
"ext-json": "*",
"barryvdh/laravel-dompdf": "^0.8.1",

"nunomaduro/collision": "^5.0",

},
Same problem with v7
Please note: we cannot, for internal policy, use -dev branches
Trying to install v9 …

I accepted answer from Nico Haase because it helped me found the solution, but this is the exact solution for my exact case
It installed the 9.21.x version and it's compatibile with my actual set of package
As written in the error message:
yajra/laravel-datatables-oracle
in v8 is only compatible with Laravel v5, and you are using Laravel v8.Try to use
composer require yajra/laravel-datatables-oracle:^9.0
– this version is compatible with Laravel v5 to v8. Next time you are facing such a problem, have a look at the constraints of different versions of the package. Packagist has a pretty nice overview of the compatible versions, for example at https://packagist.org/packages/yajra/laravel-datatables-oracle#v9.21.2 where you can see the dependencies for the latest v9 version of that datatables package
