How to use public function from module in another module

[hakeryk2]

Hello,

 

I have question. I wrote an function which I like in module A.

Right now I am developing module B and I would love to use this function from A in B without copying it.

 

Any Idea how to achieve this?

Instantiate the class (the module class) and call your function:

$module = new YourModule();
$module->function();

I tried with 

 

$module = new Cwarehouse();

but after that I am getting 

 

 

Class 'Cwarehouse' not found in Mylocalhostaddress\modules\checkavailability\checkavailability.php on line 332

 

this is proper name of my class because in this module I used

class Cwarehouse extends Module {

}

This is funny because even my IDE is getting functions from this class when I use $module->getImagePath();


Any help?

include '../modules/cwarehouse/cwarehouse.php';

To avoid any path errors, you should call this instead :

include_once _PS_MODULE_DIR_ . 'MODULENAME/MODULENAME.php';
