<![CDATA[FrontAccounting forum — Hooking Up an Extension]]> https://frontaccounting.com/punbb/viewtopic.php?id=1869 Mon, 16 May 2011 18:03:12 +0000 PunBB <![CDATA[Re: Hooking Up an Extension]]> https://frontaccounting.com/punbb/viewtopic.php?pid=9141#p9141 BTW, I think you forgot to include "global $path_to_root;" inside claim_app constructor.

    function claim_app()
    {
        global $path_to_root;

Without it, $path_to_root will become null or empty string.

Maybe you have misconfigured hooks file, or you have found a bug.

The problem is that the tab and setup access for the new extension are not showing up. I thought I messed up the hooks.php file but that's not the case.

When I deactivate my first installed extension called claim, the tab and setup access for hr showing up just fine. So, I came to conclusion that only one installed extension can be use at one time.

Is that the case or am I missing something?

I have an extension like yours and I have my tab missed when I enter to a link in any tab.

I ended up  doing it like this.

<?php
define ('SS_CL',71<<8);

class claim_app extends application
{
        function claim_app()
        {
                $this->application("claim", _($this->help_context = "&Claim"));

                $this->add_module(_("Claim Application"));

                        $path_to_root.'/modules/claim/travel.php', 'SA_CLAPPLY', MENU_CLAIM);

                $this->add_module(_("Administer Claim"));
                $this->add_lapp_function(1, _("Claim Check Up"),

                $this->add_lapp_function(1, "","");


                $this->add_extensions();
        }
}


class hooks_claim extends hooks {
        var $module_name = 'claim'; // extension module name.

        function install_tabs($app) {
                set_ext_domain('modules/claim');        // set text domain for gettext
                $app->add_application(new claim_app); // add menu tab defined by example_class
                set_ext_domain();
        }


        function install_access()
        {
                $security_sections[SS_CL] =     _("Claim");

                $security_areas['SA_CLAPPLY'] = array(SS_CL|1, _("Claim Application"));

                return array($security_areas, $security_sections);

}

The blank page is because all the extension files are included before error reporting is switched on in config.php. We will fix this issue in next minor release to make developers live easier. In mean time you can just put

ini_set("display_errors", "On");

at the top of session.inc file to see php errors during development.

I'm trying to install new :

1. Tab
2. Menu/Link
3. Security Access

So far I have :
1. Create a directory named "claim" inside "modules" directory.
2. Create file named "hooks.php" inside "claim" directory and it looks like this :

<?php
define ('SS_CL',71<<8);

class hooks_claim extends hooks {
        var $module_name = 'claim'; // extension module name.

        function install_tabs($app) {
                set_ext_domain('modules/claim');        // set text domain for gettext
                $app->add_application(new claim_app); // add menu tab defined by example_class
                set_ext_domain();
        }

        function install_access()
        {
                $security_sections[SS_CL] =     _("Claim");

                $security_areas['SA_CLAPPLY'] = array(SS_CL|1, _("Claim Application"));
                $security_areas['SA_CLCHECK'] = array(SS_CL|2, _("Check Claim"));
                $security_areas['SA_CLAPPROVE'] = array(SS_CL|3, _("Approve Claim"));
                $security_areas['SA_CLPAYMENT'] = array(SS_CL|4, _("Release Payment"));
                $security_areas['SA_CLVIEW'] = array(SS_CL|5, _("View My Claim"));

                return array($security_areas, $security_sections);
        }

}

?>

Result : I got blank/empty page.

I knew that I don't have any problem with the "install_access". So I figured that I have problem with the following line in install_tabs :

$app->add_application(new claim_app); // add menu tab defined by example_class

Don't have any idea of what it's mean but I'm sure that what causing the problem. So I ended up create a new file named "claim.php" inside "application" directory. And it looks like this :

<?php

class claim_app extends application 
{
    function claim_app() 
    {
        $this->application("claim", _($this->help_context = "&Claim"));
    
        $this->add_module(_("Claim Application"));
        $this->add_lapp_function(0, _("Sales Travelling Claim"),
            $path_to_root.'/modules/claim/travel.php', 'SA_CLAPPLY', MENU_CLAIM);
        $this->add_lapp_function(0, _("Overtime Claim"),
            $path_to_root.'/modules/claim/overtime.php', 'SA_CLAPPLY', MENU_CLAIM);
        $this->add_lapp_function(0, _("Monthly Claim"),
            $path_to_root.'/modules/claim/monthly.php', 'SA_CLAPPLY', MENU_CLAIM);
        $this->add_lapp_function(0, _("Petty Cash"),
            $path_to_root.'/modules/claim/pettycash.php', 'SA_CLAPPLY', MENU_CLAIM);
        $this->add_lapp_function(0, "","");
        $this->add_rapp_function(0, _("View My Claim"),
            $path_to_root.'/modules/claim/myclaim.php', 'SA_CLVIEW', MENU_CLAIM);
        

        $this->add_module(_("Administer Claim"));
        $this->add_lapp_function(1, _("Claim Check Up"),
            $path_to_root.'/modules/claim/ccheck.php', 'SA_CLCHECK', MENU_CLAIM);
        $this->add_lapp_function(1, _("Approved Claim"),
            $path_to_root.'/modules/claim/capprove.php', 'SA_CLAPPROVE', MENU_CLAIM);
        $this->add_lapp_function(1, _("Claim Payment"),
            $path_to_root.'/modules/claim/capprove.php', 'SA_CLPAYMENT', MENU_CLAIM);
        $this->add_lapp_function(1, "","");
        

        $this->add_extensions();
    }
}

?>

Result : I still got blank/empty page.

What's my mistake? Am I missing something? Really need some guidance here.
