Retrieve order reference on a module

[jonsecu]

Hi... I am developing a very simple module. I want a module hooked to order confirmation that retrieves the order reference and prints it on the order confirmation screen, just as the cheque or bankwire modules work.

 

Something like this...

 

"Your reference is NH8V123, thanks for shopping with us"

 

The issue is I can´t retrieve from the context, or whatever, and assign to a smarty variable the order reference to print it out on the tpl module hooked to the order confirmation.

 

The main purpose of it is using the order confirmation hook available at the paypal module confirmation window to print this reference, since it is not printed by default.

 

Any idea?

 

Thank you very much.

in hookOrderConfirmation function

$this->context->smarty->assign(array(
     'reference' => $params['objOrder']->reference
));

in your template file

{$reference}

Hi Bellini. Thank you very much for answering. I used the code you provided me. However I get this errors:
 
Notice: Undefined index: objOrder in D:\xampp\htdocs\tkn1531a\modules\printref\printref.php on line 38

Notice: Trying to get property of non-object in D:\xampp\htdocs\tkn1531a\modules\printref\printref.php on line 38

 

This is my code... did I do something wrong? Thanks!

<?php
if (!defined('_PS_VERSION_'))
  exit;
 
class printref extends Module
  {
  public function __construct()
    {
    $this->name = 'printref';
    $this->tab = 'Test';
    $this->version = 1.0;
    $this->author = 'JS';
    $this->need_instance = 0;
 
    parent::__construct();
 
    $this->displayName = $this->l('PrintRef');
    $this->description = $this->l('Prints ref or order id if available. ');
    }
 
  public function install()
    {
    if (parent::install() == false OR !$this->registerHook('rightColumn')
            OR !$this->registerHook('orderConfirmation')
            OR !$this->registerHook('leftColumn'))
        return false;
    return true;
    }
    
  public function hookRightColumn($params)
    {
    global $smarty;
    $this->context->smarty->assign(array(
     'reference' => $params['objOrder']->reference
        ));
    
    return $this->display(__FILE__,'printref.tpl');
    }
 
  public function hookLeftColumn($params)
    {
    return $this->hookRightColumn($params);
    } 
    
  public function hookOrderConfirmation($params)
    {
    return $this->hookRightColumn($params);
    }   
  }
?>

you can't use hookRightColumn function and expect an order object to exist in the params...

 

Move your code from hookRightColumn to hookOrderConfirmation
