[SOLVED] making own ObjectModel class doesn't work

[dhobo]

Hi,

 

I have the following own class:

 

<?php
class AllNews extends ObjectModel
{
/** @var string Name */

public $title;
public $publish;
public $date_publish;
public $manual;

	public static $definition = array(
 'table' => 'all_news',
 'primary' => 'id',
 'fields' => array(
  'position' =>   array('type' => self::TYPE_INT),
  // Lang fields
  'title' =>  array('type' => self::TYPE_STRING, 'lang' => true, 'validate' => 'isGenericName', 'required' => true, 'size' => 128),

 ),
);
}
?>

 

and I want to use it in my own Module like this:

 

include_once _PS_MODULE_DIR_.'classes/AndareNews.php';
$oNews = new AllNews();
		$oNews->title = Tools::getValue('ALL_MSG_TITLE');
		$oNews->save();

 

then I get this error:

 

[PrestaShop] Fatal error in module andarenews:

Call to undefined method AndareNews::save()

 

does the save() function not exist anymore?

you class name is AllNews and you use AndareNews::save() static function

 

moreover, you should use functions like:

add();

update();

Also, you should add Core as suffix to the name of your class

first one was stupid mistake, tried to copy it from another module. fixed that one now. unfortunately that didn't do the trick.

 

Code is now this:

allnewscore.php:

<?php
class AllNewsCore extends ObjectModel
{
/** @var string Name */

public $title;
public $publish;
public $date_publish;
public $manual;

    public static $definition = array(
 'table' => 'all_news',
 'primary' => 'id',
 'fields' => array(
  'position' =>   array('type' => self::TYPE_INT),
  // Lang fields
  'title' =>  array('type' => self::TYPE_STRING, 'lang' => true, 'validate' => 'isGenericName', 'required' => true, 'size' => 128),

 ),
);
}
?>

 

and in my module:

 

include_once _PS_MODULE_DIR_.'classes/AllNews.php';
$oNews = new AllNews();
	    $oNews->title = Tools::getValue('ALL_MSG_TITLE');
	    $oNews->add();

 

error:

 

[PrestaShop] Fatal error in module allnews:

Call to undefined method AllNews::add()

Try adding an Add method which calls parent::Add()

[vekia]

you're calling module class add(); function, not your object class.

use different class name for your object name and call ModelObject->add(); where ModelObject is a class name of your object (not module!)

[NemoPS]

UH! true he used the same name! Do what Vekia said, I didn't notice that

[dhobo]

vekia, you were right

[vekia]

yea, glad that we can help you a little here

may i know what module you developing right now? looks like some news system ?

[dhobo]

yeah I used to figure it out all myself in 1.4, but haven't worked on presta and on PHP for a while, so making very silly mistakes lately. This one was definitely not related to presta at all, just my lack of PHP I guess

 

indeed, news system kinda like how the CMS works. will have some more specific features though, which our client doesn't want me to bring out in the public (yet)
