Basic Provisions:
- All extensions must be placed in separate folder.
- The class file name must be the same as the folder name.
- Templates must be placed in folder 'views'.
//additional
if you want to use widgets in extensions
1. Add method getWidgets with $type parameter and describe widgets in array
example:
return [
[ 'name' => 'CustomerLoyalty\ShoppingCart', 'title' => 'Customer Loyalty Info Box', 'description' => , 'type' => 'cart', ], ];
in this case ShoppingCart (in subfolder \ShoppingCart) is widget ( ShoppingCart.php) can be used in customizing Themes
2. to show additional settings for widget use method showSettings
example:
public static function showSettings($settings){ return self::begin()->render('settings.tpl', ['settings' => $settings]); }
extension installer:
1) extends \common\classes\modules\ModuleExtensions
2) install (example)
public function install($platform_id){ parent::install($platform_id);// install in liek other modules // install extention envirenment $migration = new \common\classes\Migration; $migration->addTranslation(['admin/main'], [ //add keys ]); return; }
2) ckeck extension enabled - use \common\helpers\Acl::checkExtensionAllowed($extName, 'allowed')
public static function allowed() { return self::enabled(); }
