Use Module variable, outside module template

[Aioras]

Hello everybody!

 

I'm finishing a module to add a special tax for clients, but I'm having one issue and is that I can show the added tax in the shopping cart because I added a hook on shopping-cart.tpl, to show the tax quantity and that's ok.

 

The problem appears when I try to add that tax to the total_price variable on the shopping cart, because that's not on my module and I can't access the module variable value...

My question is if it's posible to create a variable that could be accessed from shopping-cart.tpl so I could check:

{if $useCustomTax}

   {displayPrice price=$total_price+$customTaxQuantity}

{/if}

 

for example..

 

And update total_cart price

 

Any other suggestion is welcome!

***EDITED***

 

For now I'd discover in Cart.php this function:

 

getSummaryDetails() in wich I can set the smarty values for the template so I will try to override cart.php file to add one variable with my $useCustomTax and my $customTaxQuantity .. and let see if it works!

 

then I would include those overrides in my module folder, hope it works!

You can call module static functions, 

 

{YourModule::YourFunction()}

 

in this case you can create YourFunction() in your module .php file with some return value
