PrestaShop Super Model

Requirements

You need a Shop with PrestaShop 1.6.1+, Composer and PHP 7.1 at least.

Installation

Get the module here and move it into the modules folder of your Shop.

Then, you need to install the vendors of the module:

cd modules/products && composer install

Then install it using the command line (if you're using PrestaShop 1.7.5+):

php bin/console prestashop:module install products

Or using the Back Office.

Features demonstrated in the module

Object Model self validation

If your Object Model extends the SuperModel abstract class, you don't need to override Validate class in order to implement a new validation rule.

This is an exemple of what you can do:

<?php

/**
 * Implements the Validation Rules into your
 * models !
 */
class Person extends SuperModel
{
    public $id;
    public $name;
    public $age;
    public $gender;
 
    public static $definition = [
        'table' => 'person',
        'primary' => 'id_person',
        'fields' => [
            'name' => [
                'type' => self::TYPE_STRING,
                'validate' => 'isString'
            ],
            'age' => [
                'type' => self::TYPE_INT,
                'validate' => 'Person::isAdult'
            ],
            'gender' => [
                'type' => self::TYPE_STRING,
                'validate' => 'PersonValidator::isValidGender',
            ]
        ]
    ];

    public static function isAdult($value)
    {
        return $value >= 18;
    }
}

/**
 * Or create your own Validator classes !
 */
class PersonValidator
{
    public static function isValidGender($value)
    {
        return in_array($value, [
            'MALE',
            'FEMALE',
            'NOT_BINARY',
        ]);
    }
}
