Get value from customer_entity_varchar - Magento - sql

I created a customer attribute in backend magento, but I want to show this attribute to the user so that he can alter its value in the frontend. My input field is being displayed in the frontend, but the value is not there. I am not able to get this value. I found that the value that I need to display is in the apscustomer_entity_varchar table and the column is called 'value'. How can I get that value from that table? I was trying this:
$collection = Mage::getModel('eav/entity_attribute')->getCollection();
foreach ($collection as $data) {
return $data;
}
but it was not working, so I used SQL code and it worked. However I know that's not a nice way to do that in Magento. What I did was something like:
$connection = Mage::getSingleton('core/resource')->getConnection('core_read');
$sql = "SELECT * FROM `apscustomer_entity_varchar ` WHERE `entity_id`='$id'";
$rows = $connection->fetchAll($sql);
How can I get the value column from my apscustomer_entity_varchar table in the magento way, using the getModel?

You need to retrieve the customer of the session and then you can get the attribute you want :
Mage::getSingleton('customer/session')->getData('attributeName');
Mage::getSingleton('customer/session')->getAttributeName(); //Magic getter
Where attributeName is the name of the attribute you want to get the value.

I found out how to do that :D
It's actually very simple. Even if this is a custom customer attribute (created in Magento admin panel), I need to get the attribute not using the 'eav/entity_attribute' model, but using the 'customer/customer' model. So I just need to do that:
$customer_data = Mage::getModel('customer/customer')->load($customer_id)->getData();
echo $customer_data['attributeThatYouWant'];
If you are not sure what is the name of your attribute you can look at Magento Admin Panel under Customer/Manage-Attributes, or you can use that after getting the model:
var_dump($customer_data);
Now you are able to get the name of all customer attributes.

create new user account manually on prestashop

I am developing a module that get user data in a page , I wand to submit this data to prestashop database to create a new user account .
so how can I do this ?
how should I understand what data I should get from user Like email,phone number and etc . (I want to know this Shop get what data from user to sign them up).
thank you
You can use this piece of code to create a Customer.
$customer = new Customer();
$customer->firstname = 'John';
$customer->lastname = 'Doe';
$customer->email = 'johndoe#gmail.com';
$customer->passwd = md5(pSQL(_COOKIE_KEY_.'yoursecretpasswordhere'));
$customer->save();
Like Madhi said, you will get all information needed for the Customer in Customer.php
Cheers :)
All the things you need are defined in the "classes/Customer.php" file.
Each PrestShop class has one "public static $definition" and each field of the $definition that has the "'required' => true", is required

How to show product quantity in the cart on custom page

I'm using Prestashop 1.5 and created page with list of grouped products. I want to show quantity of each product in the cart. At shopping cart page exist $product.cart_quantity property, but on my page it doesn't. Please, explain me, how to show product quantity in the cart on my page.
Easyest way I can think of is to access the data via cookies since cart data is stored in them.
You can get cookies data like this:
$context = Context::getContext();
echo '<pre>',print_r($context->cookie, true).'</pre>';
Prestashop Context is a registry for PHP variables that were previously accessed as globals. It aims to standardize the way these variables are accessed, and to make the code more robust by getting rid of global vars.
And our echo is just for example to show what info you can get from cookies.
When costumer adds something to the shopping-cart it automatically gives it a cart id (id_cart) and from there it's fairly easy to access to access that value to get all the info.
To get a cart id ( assuming you already got context ) use this
$Cart = $context->cart;
This returns you a ID of a current cart.
Now you want to return the current products in the cart ( with all the information it includes ). For that you have to use the public function located in prestashop_main_folder/classes/cart.php
So to return all the current products just use the following line
$Cart->getProducts($refresh = false, $id_product = false, $id_country = null)
And then it returns you a array with all the variables what you can easily then access.
BR's
You can do the following:
$context=Context::getContext();
$id_cart=$context->cookie->id_cart;
if($id_cart=='') $id_cart=Tools::getValue('id_cart');
$theCart = new Cart($id_cart);
$products = $theCart->getProducts(true);
$nbTotalProducts = 0;
foreach ($products as $product)
{
$nbTotalProducts += (int)$product['cart_quantity'];
}

typo3 extbase permissions in extensions

I have written one extension for making service order.
The issue I am facing here is,
There are FE users belong to three FE user groups namely "client", "Admin" and "Employee".
Here the client can make order and he should be able to see only his orders.
And the admin can see all orders done by different clients.
And the employee should be able to see only some clients orders.
Currently I made a order table with N:1 relation with FE user table. So every order should relate with any one client.
So in controller, I am checking the login user and using custom query in repository, I am accessing order related to loggedin client (FE user)
In file OrdersController.php
public function listAction() {
$orders = $this->ordersRepository->orderForLoginUsr();
$this->view->assign('orders', $orders);
}
In file OrdersRepository.php
public function orderForLoginUsr(){
$loggedInUserId = $GLOBALS ['TSFE']->fe_user->user['uid'];
$query = $this->createQuery();
$query->matching(
$query->equals('user', $loggedInUserId)
);
$query->setOrderings(array('crdate' => \TYPO3\CMS\Extbase\Persistence\QueryInterface::ORDER_DESCENDING));
return $query->execute();
}
But here my question is how to make admin user able to see all the orders done by all clients?
I have to write different template and action that calling function findAll() ?
$orders = $this->ordersRepository->findAll();
And how to set for usergroup Employee ?
Thanks in Advance
I think that the easiest way is to actually implement 3 actions with 3 different plugins, something like: listClientAction, listAdminAction and listEmployeeAction
In each of those action, you implement a method in your repository that fetch the right list of order with the good ordering:
orderForLoginClient(), orderForLoginEmployee(), orderForLoginAdmin()
What does the trick actually is that there will be 3 plugins on your page, one for each action. In each instance of your plugin, you set the access for the right be_group.
Don't forget to add the actions and plugin in the localconf and ext_table files.
I hope it will help!

If your view is almost the same for client, admin, employee you should simply add a method like getOrderWithPermissionsForUser($currentUser);
In the method itself you should check for the usergroup and call different queries on your Repo.
If your view is different from usergroup to usergroup, you should use different templates with partials for the same parts.
If the data of the views is the same, just change the template for each usergroup in the action. If not use different actions.
Here is a helper method for easily changing your templatefile.
/**
* This method can change the used template file in an action method.
*
* #param string $templateName Something like "List" or "Foldername/Actionname".
* #param string $templateExtension Default is "html", but for other output types this may be changed as well.
* #param string $controllerName Optionally uses another subfolder of the Templates/ directory
* By default, the current controller name is used. Example value: "JobOffer"
* #param \TYPO3\CMS\Fluid\View\AbstractTemplateView $viewObject The view to set this template to. Default is $this->view
*/
protected function changeTemplateFile($templateName, $templateExtension = 'html', $controllerName = null, AbstractTemplateView $viewObject = null)
{
if (is_null($viewObject)) {
$viewObject = $this->view;
}
if (is_null($controllerName)) {
$controllerName = $this->getControllerContext()->getRequest()->getControllerName();
}
$templatePathAndFilename = $this->getTemplateRootpathForView($controllerName . '/' . $templateName . '.' . $templateExtension);
$viewObject->setTemplatePathAndFilename($templatePathAndFilename);
}

Get date member was created magento

In magento, when a person becomes a member, the date "created_at" is saved with the profile.
How can I retrieve this information from magento. I can get the address info etc. but can't work out how to display / get the date a user created its account.
I tried the following:
echo Mage::getResourceModel('customer/customer_collection')->addAttributeToSelect('cr‌​eated_at');
But doesn't work.
Thanks.
Did you try this:
$customer = Mage::getModel('customer/customer')->load(IDHERE);
//or
$customer = Mage::getModel('customer/customer')->loadByEmail('test#test.com');
echo $customer->getCreatedAtTimestamp();
where exactly are you trying to get this? from within the customers session? or are you trying to get an arbitrary customer, rather than the current customer?

kohana ORM question

i am using kohana ORM in order to get some results from the database. My problem is: even though i have consulted the documentation, i can't find a way to select only the column i am interested in. To be more explicit, i have:
$sale_stock = Model::factory('product_type')
->where('product_type_id','=', $id )
-> find_all();
var dumping it, it selects me all the "SELECT product_type.* from product_type where etc".
But i want to select only the 'stock' field from the salestock table. doing find('stock') instead find_all() returns a weired object... Where am i wrong, and how can i actually select only the column 'stock' using kohana orm?
thank you!
ORM methods find() and find_all() always select all table columns, so there is two ways to get specified fields:
Load full table rows and get columns
from it:
$sale_stock = Model::factory('product_type')
->where('product_type_id','=', $id )
-> find_all();
// get array of id=>stock values
$columns = $sale_stock->as_array('id', 'stock');
Create special method in model using
Query Builder:
// model Model_Product_Type
public function get_stocks($product_type_id)
{
return DB::select(array('stock'))
->from($this->_table_name)
->where('product_type_id', '=', $product_type_id)
->execute($this->_db);
}
I realise this isn't exactly what you're looking for, but I've pulled the following from the Kohana documentation ...
$articles = ORM::factory('article')->select_list('id', 'title');
foreach ($articles as $id => $title)
{
// Display a list of links
echo html::anchor('articles/'.$id, $title);
}
// Display a dropdown list
echo form::dropdown('articles', $articles);
You could think of it as a discount, two fields for the price of one.
It's common practice for ORMs to return a 'non-standard' object when partial model or merged model fields are requested. This prevents confusing operations using the original object (ie. how do you save an object when it contains only 2 of 8 fields, plus maybe some fields from another model?).
If you print_r the object, and give me an indication of how that looks ... it might be just what you want.
I know this is an old question, but i found maybe easier solution:
$sale_stock = ORM::factory('product_type')
->where( 'product_type_id','=', $id )
->find_all();
die($sale_stock->stock);
