Increment a counter on new order

[mathlef0u]

Hello everyone,

 

I wanna increment a counter on every order in my module.

 

I tried to hook newOrder but it seems that when i order a product by credit card (VADS module or Paypal) the counter does not increment.

 

So i searched on the official documentation and i found the hook actionPaymentConfirmation which will be executed anytime the order status is changed to "Payment Accepted". But i doesn't wan't it.

 

actionValidateOrder is newer than newOrder but it's apparently the same.

 

And OrderConfirmation is not a solution because it's a hook on confirmation page and users doesn't pass necessarily through this page.

 

So what can i use to increment a counter on order creation ?

 

Sorry for my bad english 

 

Thanks by advance,

Howdy,

 

Anything that extends ObjectModel in PrestaShop automatically gets hooks for Create Read Update and Delete (CRUD) operations.

 

https://github.com/PrestaShop/PrestaShop/blob/1.6/classes/ObjectModel.php#L433

 

Two hooks are ran here:

 

• actionObjectAddBefore is executed and passed the object. This is so you can hook ALL objects being added to the database generically.
• actionObject{$class}AddBefore is executed after and passed the object. This is so you can hook on objects of a specific type, in your case 'Order'

Try registering for the hook "actionObjectOrderAddAfter" which should be called after every order is added. The order may not be validated etc. I am unsure of that.

 

Cheers,

Kris

Thanks krisives, 

 

But this features is not available on Prestashop 1.3  and i try to develop a module which will be compatible with 1.3 version.

 

Do you have any idea ?

 

Thanks by advance,
