Override AdminProductsController inside Module

[Wezzo]

Hi All,

 

I am currently developing a module which needs to duplicate a product.

 

I know that prestashop has native funtionality to duplicate a product - but what we are trying to do is duplicate a product and then edit some of the fields after the duplicate has been made.

 

What would be the best way to achieve this inside a module?

 

I would like to call the function through a button on the product admin form and also as far as possible not change any core files.

 

I guess we need an override of some sort?

 

Can you please let me know the following:

• Where to put the override
• How to make the override install with the plugin
• How to write a new function, which calls the Duplicate Products function and then does additional updates

 

Thanks in advance
