[solved] How to add a value to smarty array?

[xezus]

Hi,

I am having a problem with adding values to my new array which I created in my new module.

 

 

public function install()
{
return (parent::install()
......
&& Configuration::updateValue('my_array', array())
.....
}

 

 

Please could somebody tell me how could I add a new value to this array?

I would be glad for any answer.

hello

 

in the topic title you're talking about smarty, but as i can see in the code that you pasted, you don't use smarty.

So my questions is, what you exactly expect?

[xezus]

I am sorry I am new in prestashop but I would like to create a array in my modul and dynamically add values into it and then use this array in my theme like normal smarty array (like $css_files for example)

 

And from what I understand until know is that I have to create php array like this and then use this

 

 

public function hookDisplayHeader($params) {

 

$this->context->smarty->assign(

array( ...'name' => my created array..... )

);

}

 

 

to enable me to use the array in my theme.

that's right, so you've got solution

 

with code that you pasted you can use {$name} variable in your theme - this is the array that you created

[xezus]

Yes, but I don't know how to add values into this array

[vekia]

$array= array('variable1'=>"value", 'variable2'=>"second value", 'variable3' => "last example");

[xezus]

sorry for so many questions but how could I do this after that. When the array is already created and I just need to add another value into the array.

[vekia]

$array=array('variable1'=>"value", 'variable2'=>"value2");
$array['new_value']="my new variable";

 

effect:

 

Array
(
   [variable1] => value
   [variable2] => value2
   [new_value] => my new variable
)

[xezus]

hello,

 

How we get this value in tpl file?. Could you please provide an example?

[vekia]

if in php you use code like:

$smarty->assign(array('variable1'=>'value1', 'variable2' => 'value2'));

to access these variables in tpl file use:

 

{$variable1} - it will display "value1"

{$variable2} - it will display "value2"
