Get order reference number in order summary

[Kozlo]

Hi everyone,

 

I have a problem with my module. I created a payment module based on bankwire module with some differences. I'm stuck with this problem and hope someone could help.

 

I need to create a form in payment_execution.tpl with fields that come from database (like address firstname, lastname, etc.) I managed to get those informations from database, but now I need to get the reference of the order (I can't get it from the database of course because it's not stored there yet, or at least I can't found it). 

 

My question is, how can I get the order reference, so I could insert it in the form I created in payment_execution.tpl?

 

Thank you.

Regards

The order hasn't been created at this point so no order reference anywhere, it gets created when you click the confirm button on the payment_execution screen.

Than you for your reply. And is there a way to use this code and generate it before the validation and confirmation?

Nope, you want to display an order reference before the customer has said yes to confirming the order, i.e. there is no order, customer can still abandon the whole process at this point.  You can't pass an order reference to the order validation process either so you can't pre-define it using standard prestashop, though I guess you could override PaymentModule and hijack the validateOrder function.
