Hook executed every time

[alaaghribi]

I'm using a hook to create a product when clicking on a button.

 

In the module.php file I'm using this function :

public function hookActionProductAdd()
    {
       //code to create a product
    }

In the module.tpl file I'm creating a button, its onClick execute the hook :

<button onclick="createProduct()">Create product</button>

And at the end of the file I add the script code :

<script>
function createProduct() {
    {hook h='ActionProductAdd'}
}
</script>

I don't know why the product is created every time I access or reload the module's page .

 

THank you for your help.

Or is there any other way to achieve that ? Executing a hook when pressing a button .

 

Thank you .

That's absolutely not the way it works.
You have to instanciate a new Product class to create a product. The hook is only meant to display in templates with that syntax. Also, the hook doesn't create a product, it runs WHEN you create a product, to perform other actions
