class CommentsDataTable extends DataTable
{
    /**
     * Build DataTable class.
     *
     * @return \Yajra\Datatables\Engines\BaseEngine
     */
    public function dataTable()
    {
        return $this->datatables
            ->eloquent($this->query())
            ->editColumn('user.first_name', function ($data) {
                return view('comments.author', [
                    'data' => $data,
                ]);
            })

                return view('comments.actions', [
                    'data' => $data,
                ]);
            })
