Custom links for PDF download

[harlandraka94]

I'm creating a PS module that will generate a PDF when an order is placed.

 

It will then use the displayOrderDetail hook to provide the user a link to download the generated PDF.

 

I would like to use my module for providing those PDFs, in order to manage access to documents, because if I simply link to the download folder, one could just list the folder and download all the files, while with the module I can check if the user has rights to see the file before downloading it.

 

In my understanding, I think I need to define a new action, but I'm not sure this is the right way to do it.

 

Is there a way to "bind" my controller method to a new action?

 

If not, is there a way to tell prestashop to let my controller handle a url with some predefined parameters?

 

Thank you
