It maybe resolved by utilising pre-defined methods No need to write show() function logic because by default l5-Repository pattern contains some methods to get all the data all() or paginate().

In your controller write your code like this in getUsers():

$data = $this->repository->all();
or
$data = $this->repository->paginate('25');

all() is for fetching all the data from the database, and paginate($limit) is fetch the data per page based on the limit.

If you are using any one of the above mentioned method then automatically search functionality will work
