Pass php variable from my module file to product.js file in themes

[tijojoel]

HI,

I want to pass php variable from my module file to product.js file in themes. How to achieve it? In my module I inserted value into configuration table, I want that value to be passed into product.js file.

product.js is a core javascript file, or your module file?

[tijojoel]

@bellini13 Its the file inside themes/js

[bellini13]

You really should create your own javascript function inside your module, as opposed to trying to customize core theme files from your custom module.

@bellini13You mean that to create js file inside module and how will I pass to product,js.

 I had assigned the value in smarty and called inside the js file. It is working fine now, is that correct approach?

[bellini13]

You haven't even stated what changes you made to the core product.js file, or why you did that.  There might be ways to accomplish it but it depends on the version of Prestashop that this change will be used on

However instead of changing a core theme file product.js you should find a way to implement your javascript code inside your own module

@bellini13 I changed product.js file to make the quantity multiple by the value i had configured in the module. I am not getting any another way to do it, so only I did like this

Then in your module, obtain your configuration value from where ever you store it.  Then add that variable to javascript using the displayHeader hook.

Then product.js would have access to this variable.

I agree with bellini.  If you really want to add it there, try using that hook, and assign with Media::addJsDef()
