Hi, after creating module and stream there are created migrations and after install tables in db. Is there any tutorial of directions how to create plugin without db table ? I wan't to create log reader in admin panel so I don't need table.

Sounds like you still want your table builders but not the streams behind them. This can certainly be done and we have a good example of it here: https://github.com/anomalylabs/addons-module/tree/2.2/src/Addon/Table

This particular builder uses a lot of handlers as you can see but check this out for loading entries: https://github.com/anomalylabs/addons-module/blob/2.2/src/Addon/Table/Entries/DownloadedEntries.php

Lastly this particular builder uses views to configure the table so check out this file for how that works: https://github.com/anomalylabs/addons-module/blob/2.2/src/Addon/Table/AddonTableViews.php

Just don't make a stream or migrations, you do it the same way, just don't have any migrations to create any tables you don't need.

Ok, so in controller I return Table Builder render() , but how attach my data to table builder so it will be used as data from mysql. I mean some magic no hard code.

Streams also could be ok, just wanted best solution to generate table in admin panel from my data, not database table data 😄

Yep tables and forms both don't require streams. You can do headless tables/forms and all kinds of cool stuff with very little effort 😄
