Add new Global variable in Context employee array

[N@D33M]

Hi,

 

I would like to add an external variable in employee context array, how to add additional variable in employee array?

 

Let's say I wanted to add something like this:

$context->employee['accessVerified'] = true;

so later I could access that variable somewhere in admin like:

if($context->employee->accessVerified)
 ...

Please help.

Thanks,

Hello!
 
Maybe it's a little bit late but have you tried doing the following:
 

$this->context->employee->accessVerified = true;

 
I've tried this in the front and I think it works.

I double checked and my previous answer it's wrong. You should use this:

 

$this->context->cookie->accessVerified = true;

 

I'm not completely sure if it'll work but you can try it.

when employe will log out, this variable will be still defined

So in the logout, just unset it:

 

 

unset($this->context->cookie->accessVerified)

 

or

 

 

$this->context->cookie->accessVerified = false

 

 

Maybe there is a better way to do it. I'm quite newbie un Prestashop
