Hook to modify the creation of product

[renaud2263]

Hi All,

 

Actually when I create a new product with my PS 1.6.1, I need the reference is the same of the ID (which I don't know at this stage due to the auto-increment. )

 

So what should be the best way to do that ?

Overriding AdminProductController ? The class ? I saw the function add and the hook actionProductSave called.

But where is this hook ?

 

Or maybe I have to create a module with this kind of hook  :

public function hookActionProductSave()
{
  
    $id = Tools::getValue('id_product');
    $product = new Product($id);
    $product->reference = ($id;
    
   
    $product->save();
 

} 

Could you give me some indications ? Thanks !

Hi.

The function for the module is:

public function hookActionProductUpdate()
{
    $id = Tools::getValue('id_product');
    Db::getInstance()->execute('UPDATE '._DB_PREFIX_.'product SET reference = id_product WHERE id_product = '.$id);
}
