Display buttons in the header toolbars page

[Titi2]

Hello guys.

i'm developping a custom module. It clone product from one shop to another in multistore mode.

So, a preview screenshot of what i need at the bottom. I need to put 2 buttons in the header toolbars. How can i achieve it?

My custom admin controller:

	public function compare(Request $request): Response
	{

        // Form to make comparison of sources and clones products and confirm the clone process
        $formBuilder = $this->createFormBuilder($ps, [
            'action' => $this->generateUrl('final_process'),
            'method' => 'POST'
        ]);
        
        // Add a hidden input only for each product to clone which is valid)
        // This input will contain a serialized object of the product source and the product clone
		// $productToCompare is an array($product_source_obj, $product_clone_obj)
        foreach($productsToCompare as $product_r) {

            $input_name = 'product-'.$product_r->id;

            $formBuilder
                ->add($input_name, HiddenType::class, [
                    'data' => base64_encode(serialize($productStorage)),
                    'mapped' => false,
                ])
            ;
        }
        
        $form = $formBuilder->getForm(); 
        $form->handleRequest($request);
        
        return $this->render('@Modules/mymodule/views/templates/admin/compare.html.twig', [
            'formObject'        => $form,
            'productsToCompare' => $productsToCompare,
        ]);
    }

Also, my template:

{% extends '@!PrestaShop/Admin/layout.html.twig' %}
{% block content %}

	{{ form_start(form) }}
  		<button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">VALID AND CLONE</button>
  		<button type="button" class="btn btn-outline-secondary" onClick="window.history.back();">GO BACK</button> 
	{{ form_end(form) }}

  	<div class="row">
      <div class="content container-fluid">
        <div class="col table-responsive">
          <table class="table table-sm table-hover">
            {{ table content }}
          </table>
        </div>
      </div>
  	</div>
{% endblock %}

I thnik i'm missing something between the the extended layout and the block content.

I found hook displayDashboardToolbarTopMenu in the header toolbar.

Here the hook in the main file of my module :

class Mymodule extends Module
{
	[...]

	public function hookDisplayDashboardToolbarTopMenu($params)
	{
		$this->get('twig')->render('@Modules/'.$this->name.'/views/templates/admin/form/form_submit.html.twig', [
			'button' => $params['button'],
		]);
        }
    }
}

And mycontroller.php:

class LinkProductsToShop extends FrameworkBundleAdminController
{
	public function someMethod()
 	{
		// build a form here
		$formBuilder = $this->createFormBuilder($ps,[])
		[...]
		
		$my_button = 'some button';

      		Hook::exec('hookDisplayDashboardToolbarTopMenu', [
      			'button' => $my_button,
      		]);

		return $this->render('@Modules/mymodule/views/templates/admin/compare_products.html.twig', [
			'form' => $form->createView(),
		]);
	}
}

 

But seems the hook is executed before Hook:exec() is called. So $params['button'] is null. It should be $my_button.

Okay! I'm going forward. In fact, in my controller i was calling :

Hook::exec('hookDisplayDashboardToolbarTopMenu', [
	'button' => $my_button,
]);

instead of

Hook::exec('displayDashboardToolbarTopMenu', [
	'button' => $my_button,
]);

be careful of hookDisplayDashboardToolbarTopMenu. Now, my variable $my_button is passed properly to the hook function.

If i made var_dump($params['button']), it return the content of $my_button. BUT! when i send this variable to twig like this:

public function hookDisplayDashboardToolbarTopMenu($params)
{
	var_dump($params['button']); // return 'some button'

	$this->get('twig')->render('@Modules/'.$this->name.'/views/templates/admin/form/form_submit.html.twig', [
		'button' => $params['button'],
	]);
}

It doesn't not return anything. I'm missing something again...

The template is showing but not {{ button }}

I don't know if you've solved this problem, but I have a solution - maybe it will be useful to someone.

public function hookActionGetAdminToolbarButtons(array $params) : void
{
    // Get the collection of toolbar buttons
    $toolbar = $params['toolbar_extra_buttons_collection'];

    // Create a new button
    $newButton = new \PrestaShop\PrestaShop\Core\Action\ActionsBarButton(
        'btn-secondary', // CSS class for the button
        ['href' => 'your_link_here'], // Link where the button redirects
        'Your button text' // Text displayed on the button
    );

    // Add the new button to the collection
    $toolbar->add($newButton);
}

You don't say what version of PrestaShop you are using, but it definitely works on v8.1.3.
