Generate a Helper Form in hookDisplayAdminProductsExtra

[filene]

Hello,

 

I don't manage to display a form within the HelperForm generator in a module i'm currently coding 

 

This module adds a new tab when editing a Product in the backoffice. This tab is supposed to help generating combinations for my products in an easier way: those products are restaurants with date and hour attributes to allow reservations.

 

I therefore hooked the module to displayAdminProductsExtra (and actionProductUpdate). I want the form to be displayed in this Admin Product Tab.

 

 

I obviously first tried to code my form in a .tpl file to display, but it causes errors. ( My datepickers don't hide because of a jquery error on jquery-validate.js when validating each input.). That's why I decided to generate my form all clean with a HelperForm.

 

This is what my code looks like:

 

class Reservation extends Module {

 

//blabla, construct, install, uninstall, getContent, displayForm

 

public function displayFormAdminProductsExtra()

{

$fields_form[0]['form'] = array(//blabla);

 

$helper = new HelperForm();

 

$helper->module = $this;

$helper->name_controller = $this->name;

$helper->token = Tools::getAdminTokenLite('AdminModules');

$helper->currentIndex = AdminController::$currentIndex. '&configure='.$this->name;

 

//blabla helper config

 

return $helper->generateForm($fields_form);

}

 

public function hookDisplayAdminProductsExtra ()

{

//blabla

return $this->displayFormAdminProductsExtra();

}

 

}

 

The extra tab in AdminProduct is then empty.

 

What am i doing wrong ? Thank you so much for your reply !

Mine is like this;

public function hookDisplayAdminProductsExtra($params) {        
        $this->context->smarty->assign(array(
            'product_id' => $params['id_product'],
            'product_name' => 'test'
        ));

        return $this->context->smarty->fetch($this->local_path.'views/templates/admin/DisplayAdminProductsExtra.tpl');
}

It displays the TPL file i selected.

I think you want something diferent like render a form
