I've created an API module in prestaShop and I am generating an XML output to a certain CMS page. Thing is that I can't disable the layout.
I just need to render the XML output from the module (and no html).
Any ideas please? (I am not using the webservice classes)
At least.. Is it possible to do this from a module?
Thanks,
Dan
Override the method "display" of your controller and output whatever you want.
If you do not want to display layout, do not call parent::display().
I have a problem like you. And I knew how to disable it.
You just need add two lines below to your module:
$this->display_header = false;
$this->display_footer = false;
Example:
public function initContent(){
parent::initContent();
$this->display_header = false;
$this->display_footer = false;
$this->setTemplate('display.tpl');
}

I have registered an action in the EditorPopupMenu (this is right click menu). I also have a bunch of components inside a ToolWindow (that I designed using the GUI Designer plugin) that I want to update the values of.
There have been some posts on the IntelliJ forums about this, and the typical answer seems to advice using the ToolWindow's ContentManager, and obtain the JPanel containing all your components. E.g. the following:
Project p = e.getProject();
ToolWindow toolWindow;
toolWindow = ToolWindowManager.getInstance(p).getToolWindow("My ToolWindow ID");
ContentManager contentManager = toolWindow.getContentManager();
JPanel jp = (JPanel) contentManager.getContent(0).getComponent();
This feels counterintuitive... Having to navigate inside JPanel's to find a bunch of components. What if I decided to put my components inside a different container? Suddenly the way I navigate to my components would break down.
Is it really the most practical way to constrain myself to the way my GUI is built? Can't I access these components in a different way?
I found a way to access my custom myToolWindow. This should help quite some people.
Make sure that your custom MyToolWindow extends the class SimpleToolWindowPanel.
In your custom myToolWindowFactory class, pass your custom MyToolWindow to ContentFactory.createContent() as the first argument. NOT one of the JPanel's inside MyToolWindow as is done in the ToolWindow examples given in the official IntelliJ documentation...
In your MyToolWindow constructor, call the method setContent(<YourJPanelContainingYourComponents>).
I found the answer by experimenting on example 5 from this link:
public JBTabbedTerminalWidget getTerminalWidget(ToolWindow window) {
window.show(null);
if (myTerminalWidget == null) {
JComponent parentPanel = window.getContentManager().getContents()[0].getComponent();
if (parentPanel instanceof SimpleToolWindowPanel) {
SimpleToolWindowPanel panel = (SimpleToolWindowPanel) parentPanel;
JPanel jPanel = (JPanel) panel.getComponents()[0];
myTerminalWidget = (JBTabbedTerminalWidget) jPanel.getComponents()[0];
} else {
NotificationUtils.infoNotification("Wait for Freeline to initialize");
}
}
return myTerminalWidget;
}
In the shop's customer section I would like to render the user account menu (which we can see by default when reaching /my-account URL) as a side column on some others controllers like the ones associated to "/my-adresses", "/identity" pages ..
I thought I would have to create another controller which purpose would be to gather menu infos and only render the menu <ul> list. Then I could override Controllers such as MyAccountController, IdentityController to include this former Ctrl and then render its content as part of the views of those two other controllers views.
So how one can load a specific controller from another in order to render shared views between pages ? Which is the right/clean way to do that ?
I heard about $this->getController() but I did not find any snippet or implementation of what I'd like to achieve. I new to Prestashop but even if the code seems clear, I don't get the point here.
Thank you !
After getting a bit deeper into sources, I ended up moving the menu (initially part of the MyAccountControllerCore alias my-account template) into a brand new Controller "MyAccountMenuController", in /override/controllers/front/.
<?php
// In /override/controllers/front/MyAccountMenuController.php
// The "exposer" controller
public function display()
{
// Do what ever you want to pass specific variables
if (! $this->template) {
throw new Exception(get_class($this) . '::display() : missing template.');
}
$this->context->smarty->display($this->template);
return true;
}
I am now able to import this menu by adding the following snippet inside the initContent() method of each controller that are part of the customer account section (this means that each of them must be overridden, for more info about overriding controllers, see documentation):
<?php
// In /override/controllers/front/MyAccountController.php
// The "consumer" controller
public function initContent() {
// ...
// Importing the customer area's menu
$menuController = $this->getController('MyAccountMenuController');
ob_start();
$menuController->run();
$this->context->smarty->assign('myAccountMenu', ob_get_clean());
}
I don't think the original purpose of getController method (located in ControllerCore class) was meant to include another controller output, at least in Prestashop 1.5. Still, to me this approach is far cleaner than duplicate views code.
If you have a better (cleaner) approach to implement such a mechanism, please let me know !
Any thoughts ?
Can someone tell me how can I have the breadcrumb nav within the header.tpl and not in the product.tpl of opencart?
I've just had to figure this out for a new site we're building and I've come up with the following; use at your own risk (I'll report back if I run into any major problems, but I can't foresee any... famous last words)
Basically the breadcrumbs are built in the controllers and we need the resulting $breadcrumbs array in the header controller. Modify system/engine/controller.php as follows:
[...snip...]
protected function render() {
foreach ($this->children as $child) {
$this->data[basename($child)] = $this->getChild($child,array('parent_data'=>&$this->data));
}
[...snip...]
This will send all the data in the parent controller, before render() was called, to every controller/method of the $children. Then we just need to pick this up in the header controller as follows:
<?php
class ControllerCommonHeader extends Controller {
protected function index($args=array()) {
// parent data
$this->data['parent_data'] = $args['parent_data'];
[...snip...]
And we can access everything in the template with $parent_data['whatever']. In this case, $parent_data['breadcrumbs'] will be the array of breadcrumbs that I can loop over with the code I've removed from each page.tpl and added to my header.tpl.
Due to the way 1.5.X is coded, you'll need to rewrite every controller and add a method back to the document class to allow passing from the product controller to the header controller. Is there any particular reason you want to do so?
if all else fails just hack the css, something like
.breadcrumb {
margin-left: -270px;
margin-top: -65px;
}
will move the breadcrumb up and to the left.
I've trying to get properly work kcaptcha class from kcaptcha.ru in my own component. 'Cause class not build for Joomla natively I break my brain on the wall.
And at the beginning...
I've a url to image generated by this class like: http://.../index.php&task=captcha&format=raw
In main controller I've put method
function captcha() {
include(JPATH_COMPONENT.DS.'libraries'.DS.'captcha'.DS.'kcaptcha'.DS.'kcaptcha.php');
$session = &JSession::getInstance('default', array());
$captcha = new KCAPTCHA();
if ($session) {
$session->set('captcha_keystring', $captcha->getKeyString());
}
}
And I've see in browser
When I request an image from the class all working good but in my component I cannot set session variables.
Any ideas how to fix this problem?
And problem solved successfully.
For &format=raw in controller Joomla set default mime-type to text/html.
For healing this issue developer must reset mime/type via setting
$document = &JFactory::getDocument();
$document->setMimeEncoding('image/png');
mime/encoding off course depends on you needs.
I have a view that displays several nodes. I want to place node form below each displayed node. Both node_add and drupal_get_form directly in template.php works fine, but I get forms with same form ID of NODETYPE_node_form and validation and submitting does not work as expected.
If you had to put several node forms on one page, what would be your general approach?
Progress so far...
in template.php while preprocessing node
$author_profile and $content is set before.
$unique = $vars['node']->nid;
$node = new StdClass();
$node->uid = $vars['user']->uid;
$node->name = $vars['user']->name;
$node->type = 'review';
$node->language = '';
$node->title = t('Review of ') . $vars['node']->realname . t(' by ') . $vars['user']->realname . t(' on ') . $content->title;
$node->field_review_to_A[0]['nid'] = $nodeA->nid;
$node->field_review_to_B[0]['nid'] = $vars['node']->nid;
$node->field_review_to_profile[0]['nid'] = $author_profile->nid;
if(!function_exists("node_object_prepare")) {
include_once(drupal_get_path('module', 'node') . '/node.pages.inc');
}
//$vars['A_review_form'] = drupal_get_form('review_node_form', $node);
$vars['A_review_form'] = mymodule_view($node, $unique);
in mymodule module
function mymodule_view($node, $unique) {
if(!function_exists("node_object_prepare")) {
include_once(drupal_get_path('module', 'node') . '/node.pages.inc');
}
$output = drupal_get_form('review_node_form_' . $unique, $node);
return $output;
}
function mymodule_forms($form_id, $args) {
$forms = array();
if (strpos($form_id, "review_node_form_") === 0) {
$forms[$form_id] = array('callback' => 'node_form');
}
return $forms;
}
function mymodule_form_alter(&$form, $form_state, $form_id) {
if (isset($form['type']) && isset($form['#node']) && $form_id != $form['type']['#value'] .'_node_form' && $form['type']['#value'] == 'review') {
$type = content_types($form['#node']->type);
if (!empty($type['fields'])) {
module_load_include('inc', 'content', 'includes/content.node_form');
$form = array_merge($form, content_form($form, $form_state));
}
$form['#pre_render'][] = 'content_alter_extra_weights';
$form['#content_extra_fields'] = $type['extra'];
//$form['#id'] = $form_id;
//$form['#validate'][0] = $form_id . '_validate';
$form['title']['#type'] = 'value';
$form['field_review_to_A']['#type'] = 'value';
$form['field_review_to_B']['#type'] = 'value';
$form['field_review_to_profile']['#type'] = 'value';
}
}
Questions
My take on summarizing unclear questions...
Is this good general approach for displaying multiple node forms on same page?
Is it OK to copy/paste code from content modules content_form_alter function in function mymodule_form_alter? Will it not brake things if content module is updated?
Should i set $form['#id']? Without it all forms has same HTML form ID of node_form, with it ID is unique, like review_node_form_254. Thing is that there is no difference of how form is submitted. Setting $form['#validate'][0] does not seem to influence things too. Maybe I should set $form[button]['#submit'][0] to something else? Now its node_form_submit.
Why validation does not work even with unique form id and form validate function? If i submit last form without required field all previous forms gets particular fields red. should I make my own validation function? what level - form or field? Any tips on where to start?
You need to implement hook_forms() to map different ids to the same builder function.
The NODETYPE_node_form ids you mention are already an example of this mechanism, as they are all mapped to the same builder function (node_form()) within the node modules node_forms() implementation.
You can find links to more examples in the 'Parameters' explanation off the drupal_get_form() function.
This was exceptionally useful to me.
Documentation on all the drupal APIs is so lacking - I was tearing my hair out. The crucial bit for me, that I don't think is covered anywhere else on the net:
CCK adds its fields to your form through hook_form_alter() . But it does this based on the form_id. So if the form ID is different (cause you want multiple ones on the same page), you need to replicate a bit of the CCK code to add the fields to your form regardless.
That is what this does brilliantly.
I really did not dig to the bottom of it, but it seems to me that you pretty much did all the relevant digging by yourself.
From what I understand by inspecting the code only, you are right in thinking that content_form_alter() is the show-stopper.
Maybe this is a naïve suggestion, but what about writing your own implementation of hook_form_alter() starting from the content_form_alter() code but changing the conditions that make the alteration to occur? I am thinking to something along these lines:
function modulename_form_alter(&$form, $form_state, $form_id) {
if (isset($form['type']) && isset($form['#node']) &&
stripos($form_id, $form['type']['#value'] .'_node_form')) {
...
}
}
I did not actually test the code above, but I hope it is self-explenatory: you actually trigger the changes for a give customised type of content if MYCCKTYPE_node_form is a substring of the actual form_id (es: MYCCKTYPE_node_form_234).
Hope this helps at least a bit... Good luck! :)
EDIT: TWO MORE THINGS
It just occurred to me that since your custom implementation of hook_form_alter() will live aside the CCK one, you would like to add a check to avoid the form to be modified twice something like:
&& $form_id != $form['type']['#value'] .'_node_form'
The other way you might try to implement this by not using CCK but implementing you custom type programmatically (this might even be an advantage if you plan to use your module on various different sites).
