Create a new module for International Checkout payment module

[icecold]

I have errors and the admin section is not listing the module as expected, I am not sure if there is a problem with a parameter, that fails to create the entries in the config file.

Here is the script so far:

check function

function check() {
    global $db;
    if (!isset($this->_check)) {
      $check_query = $db->Execute("select configuration_value from " . TABLE_CONFIGURATION . " where configuration_key = 'MODULE_PAYMENT_IC_STATUS'");
      $this->_check = $check_query->RecordCount();
    }
    return $this->_check;
  } 

Install function

 function install() {
        global $db;

      $db->Execute("insert into " . TABLE_CONFIGURATION . " (configuration_title, configuration_key, configuration_value, configuration_description, configuration_group_id, sort_order, set_function, date_added) values ('Enable International Checkout Module', 'MODULE_PAYMENT_IC_STATUS', 'True', 'Do you want to accept International Checkout payments?', '6', '130', 'zen_cfg_select_option(array(\'True\', \'False\'), ', now())");
   $db->Execute("insert into " . TABLE_CONFIGURATION . " (configuration_title, configuration_key, configuration_value, configuration_description, configuration_group_id, sort_order, date_added) values ('Sort order of display.', 'MODULE_PAYMENT_IC_SORT_ORDER', '0', 'Sort order of display. Lowest is displayed first.', '6', '131' , now())");
    $db->Execute("insert into " . TABLE_CONFIGURATION . " (configuration_title, configuration_key, configuration_value, configuration_description, configuration_group_id, sort_order, date_added) values ('International Checkout Company ID', 'MODULE_PAYMENT_IC_COMPANY', '', 'Company used for International Checkout payments', '6', '132', now())");
   } 

 function remove() {
      $db->Execute("delete from " . TABLE_CONFIGURATION . " where configuration_key in ('" . implode("', '", $this->keys()) . "')");
    } 

  function keys() {
      return array('MODULE_PAYMENT_IC_STATUS', 'MODULE_PAYMENT_IC_SORT_ORDER', 'MODULE_PAYMENT_IC_COMPANY'); 

When I move it to includes/modules/payment/ I get errors and nothing is written to the db ...

Apparently the problem was a missing language file ... but I still have another error in one of the loops that traverses the product array and creates the form:

foreach ($productArray as $product) {
    
     // Comment the string until it has proper form
     
     $process_button_string = zen_draw_hidden_field('ItemQuantity',$product['quantityField'] . 
                              zen_draw_hidden_field('ItemImage',$product['productsImage']) . 
                              zen_draw_hidden_field('ItemDescription',$product['productsName']) . 
                              zen_draw_hidden_field('ItemPrice',$product['productsPrice']);

// echo $process_button_string;



     // $process_button_string .= zen_draw_hidden_field(zen_session_name(), zen_session_id());
      return $process_button_string;
    } 

I get a parsing error unexpected semicolon at the end of the active $process_button_string,
don't know why, is the syntax wrong?

Looks like you're missing a closing parenthesis on your ItemQuantity line.

yes! thanks couldn't see that ...

ok, the module is now listed in Admin, so the next step will be to go into testing phase, to see if the values are retrieved from the shopping cart and the string properly filled, but what should I use to draw a button(use an image), linked to the process button class? I mean do I have to make it separately from the class?

[DrByte]

You don't. The submit button on the page takes care of that for you.

Do you mean the SUBMIT button in the shopping cart page?
but I need to draw a new button, such as the one Google Checkout does, before going to checkout, I was looking all google checkout and Paypal files to see how they do it, but couldn't find a single reference?

My class supposed to do this:

Read and list all products and image locations from the cart plus the company's id and session's id, after that is ready submit the hidden fields, using an image submit.

So far the module is installed but don't know where I can place the code for the button. I noticed a nice Install button in Admin as soon as the class was listed and recognized, but what I need is the submit button for the end user to click, this button is a custom image ...

I was referring to the Submit button on the checkout-confirmation page. That's what uses the process_button() "function".

ok, but that draws the standard checkout button pages, and that is not what I want, I need to draw a button below the cart the way paypal and google checkout do, because the standard checkout process, has to be avoided, the only thing my process_button() method(sorry for the function thing), needs to do is submit these data, using a custom International Checkout button, that will not interfere with the standard checkout process. That's why I wanted to know if the code can go withing the class or I have to write in other file, or somewhere in the shopping cart.

LOL - sounds like it is absolutely interfering with the standard checkout process, by bypassing it entirely!

I don't know how GC does it.
The PayPal button is simply drawn within the template where it's required.
