Creating event id from database? - jquery-plugins

I'm populating the calendar with a json feed.
$return_arr = array();
$fetch = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM events");
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($fetch, MYSQL_ASSOC)) {
$row_array['rowid'] = $row['id'];
$row_array['title'] = $row['title'];
$row_array['start'] = $row['start'];
$row_array['end'] = $row['end'];
array_push($return_arr,$row_array);
}
echo json_encode($return_arr);
And render the event:
calendar.fullCalendar('renderEvent',{
title: 'title',
start: start,
end: end,
allDay: allDay,
id: rowid
},
true // make the event "stick"
);
When I use eventClick to get the id I get _fc1, _fc2 etc. Is there anyway I can get the id generated by my database? so I can refer to each individual event for updating?
Many thanks

You can simple add a custom field to your Event and then reference that in your click event.
From the Docs
Non-standard Fields
In addition to the fields above, you may also include your own
non-standard fields in each Event Object. FullCalendar will not modify
or delete these fields. For example, developers often include a
description field for use in callbacks such as eventRender.

You can use the same DBid as event id: $row_array['id'] = $row['id'];.
In eventClick(event,...) you will get it as event.id.

How to fetch data from Zoho Inventory into Zoho Creator

response = zoho.inventory.getRecords("Item","i inserted ID in here");
var = response.get("Product Name");
for each hey in var
{
insert into SKU #SKU is a form in Zoho Creator
[
Added_User=zoho.loginuser
Item_Name=hey #Item_Name is my field in SKU
]
}
Above code not fetching the Product Name Data from Inventory into Zoho Creator
To serarch in Inventory you must use:
<response> = zoho.inventory.getRecords(<module>, <org_id>, [<criteria_map>], [<connection>]);
The module is Items. In "Settigs" -> "Profile organization" you can obtain your org_id. It returns a map and you have to iterate over response.get("Items")
I you want to get a single item and you have the ID you can use the next function
<response> = zoho.inventory.getRecordsByID(<module>, <org_id>, <record_id>, [<connection>]);
If you want to view the reponse, you can use "info response;" or "alert response;" depend where you are using it.
Are you sure, you are using the correct link name of 'Product Name' field, try 'Product_Name' instead.
Please Used the Correct API Name for fetch out in Map.
getRecords()- used to get all records (200) at time & for Individual records try this:getRecordsByID()
response = zoho.inventory.getRecords("Item","i inserted ID in here");
Org id is missing in this get record code.
var = response.get("Product Name");
make sure you are using a correct api name of the product name

Retrieve original Customer object from sales_order_invoice_pay event

I'm building a small module for my Magento 1.7 installation.
My function is called when the sales_order_payment_pay event is triggered.
Basically, it looks into the customer's order to check for the presence of a specific magic product.
// Retrieve the order
$order = $observer->getPayment()->getOrder();
// Look for product ID 999, whatever that is
try {
$magic_product = $order->getItemById(999);
if ($magic_product){
// The order contains our magic product; let's find our customer object and do something with it.
//**$customer = $order->getCustomer();**
$customer->setData( "foo", "bar" );
$customer->save();
}
} catch ( Exception $e ) {
// Fail silently, I don't care...
}
I'm trying here to find a way to go up the object hierarchy to retrieve the customer (if any!) who made the order.
With getCustomerName() I could get it's name, but I can't find any way to find the object itself without resorting to some kind of hack. And I don't like hacks. Anyone can help me?
If you're trying to get the customer object that is related to the order, you have to load it and the order has the customers id:
$customerId = $order->getCustomerId();
$customer = Mage::getModel('customer/customer')->load($customerId);
// customer stuff
$event = $observer->getEvent();
$invoice = $event->getInvoice();
$order = $invoice->getOrder();
echo $order->getCustomerId();
Try using this in case you get a Null for Customer ID

dynamicly add form fields in joomla

I'm wondering if there is a possibility to add form fields to depending on some options,
for example:
when user select number of options = 8 and user click save, on next view user see 8 text box each with different names.
I was trying to use form fields class not via .xml files but can't get it to work.
Any1 know if it is even possible?
Yes that's is possible. You can get the number of fields from the form. Assume It's 10($count).
Next view you can loop as below and create text boxes.
for($i = 1; $i <= $count; $i++)
echo '<input type="text" name="fields[]" class="class_fields">';
At the backend you can fetch the data as below.
$values = JRequest::getVar( 'fields', 'default_values', 'post', 'array' );
Read more
If you have any issues let me know
To be able to add the list items dynamically you have to write your own JFormField like class and install in inside your component.
In your case you extend the JFormFieldList and override the getOptions() function. In .xml you use the new created input type name.
Here how to create and use new fields classes (start here): http://docs.joomla.org/Creating_a_custom_form_field_type
Next the example how to extend the JFormFieldList class: http://docs.joomla.org/J2.5:How_to_add_custom_filters_to_components
In the second link for simplicity use (for example only)
public function getOptions()
{
// Initialize variables.
$options = array(0=>"Option 0", 1=>"Option 1");
return $options;
}

Replacing "product name" with "Item + productId" when product is added in Magento via admin panel

I want to auto generate product names in Magento.
When I'm going to add a product, for the product name I will type some string.
When I save the product, I want the product name to be automatically generated such that the product name becomes Item."productId".
Answering assuming that OP wants to incorporate the auto-increment value from the entity table into business data. This is generally not a great idea.
This is an interesting task which can be easily accomplished with Magento's EAV implementation - particularly when working in the catalog module. First, some background.
When an EAV entity is saved, it has a nice, neat array of key => value pairs which represent the attributes and attribute values for that entity:
Mage_Catalog_Model_Product->_data['attribute_code'] = 'attribute value';
During the save process, the EAV resource model takes this array and iterates over it. For each attribute, identified by its code (attribute_code in the above example) and its entity (catalog_product in the case of products), the configuration for the attribute itself is loaded. Of particular importance is the "backend model" for an attribute, as it is invoked to do pre- and post-processing of/relating to the value.
In the current case, there is a piece of information which will not be present when we are saving the attribute, at least, not in a way in which we can use it: the new product id. This can be used to adjust the original value as part of the save process.
It's always nice to have an example from the core, so, refer to the price attribute and its backend model, Mage_Catalog_Model_Product_Attribute_Backend_Price which can be seen in the eav_attribute table:
SELECT `attribute_code`, `backend_model`
FROM `eav_attribute`
LEFT JOIN `eav_entity_type` USING (`entity_type_id`)
WHERE `attribute_code` = 'price';
#+----------------+-----------------------------------------+
#| attribute_code | backend_model |
#+----------------+-----------------------------------------+
#| price | catalog/product_attribute_backend_price |
#+----------------+-----------------------------------------+
#1 row in set (0.00 sec)
When a product is saved, the price attribute's backend_model is instantiated and (in this case) the afterSave() method is called. Incidentally, this method is what updates pricing by conversion rate for website-scoped pricing. This same approach can be used to modify the name attribute.
The following setup script will add the backend model:
<?php
$installer = Mage::getResourceModel('catalog/setup','default_setup');
$installer->startSetup();
$installer->updateAttribute(
'catalog_product',
'name',
'backend_model',
'custom/product_attribute_backend_name'
);
$installer->endSetup();
The corresponding afterSave() method should do the trick:
public function afterSave($object)
{
$value = $object->getData($this->getAttribute()->getAttributeCode());
$origData = $object->getOrigData();
$origValueExist = $origData && array_key_exists($this->getAttribute()->getAttributeCode(), $origData);
//don't do this in case of update
if ($object->getStoreId() != 0 || !$value || $origValueExist) {
return $this;
}
//append autoinc id
$newValue = $value .'.'. $object->getId(); // or whatever
//assume global store, otherwise the stated need is getting weird!
$object->addAttributeUpdate($this->getAttribute()->getAttributeCode(), $newValue, 0);
return $this;
}
If you're doing this from the admin panel product edit screen, you're going to have to remove the "Required" class from the "Name" field so you can save it without the name. This means overriding the Edit form to replace that field specifically. Then you'll have to overload the save-related methods on the product model (or you can do it from the controller), but the child will have to generate the name on save before it goes to the database.
For example:
class Module_Catalog_Model_Product extends Mage_Catalog_Model_Product
{
protected function _beforeSave()
{
parent::_beforeSave();
$productName = 'Item' . $this->getId();
if (!$this->getId() && !$this->getName())
{
$this->setName('Item Unnamed');
} elseif ($this->getId()) && strcasecmp($this->getName(), $productName) <> 0)
{
$this->setName($productName);
}
}
}
The only problem with this is that it requires two saves. If you want to have it work on the fly, you'll have to do a second save using the _afterSave() method. Or, once again, you can do it from the controller.
I would use a Magento Event to do this:
Since Models in Magento have an event prefixes (just take a look at Mage_Catalog_Model_Product and look for $_eventPrefix, for our current model the eventPrefix is set to catalog_product.
If you now take a look at Mage_Core_Model_Abstract and search for _eventPrefix. You see that eventPrefix are found in _beforeLoad, _afterLoad, _beforeSave, _afterSave and a few others. In these methods you can see an event is dispatched using something as below:
Mage::dispatchEvent($this->_eventPrefix.'_save_before', $this->_getEventData());
This means you have an event available called catalog_product_save_before. With this event you can hook into Magento at that time and do your thing, change the field in this case, and Magento handles the rest.
Take a look at http://www.magentocommerce.com/wiki/5_-_modules_and_development/0_-_module_development_in_magento/customizing_magento_using_event-observer_method for more information how to use these events and turn them into a module. If you don't know how to build modules for Magento and want to learn, there are some awesome on-demand video's for free: http://www.magentocommerce.com/training/on-demand
First I want to thanks to all users which write in the topic. Thanks a lot of guys!
I did it, but I make it easier. (because I have very basic knowledge in Magento and it would toke more time)
So... With my colegues decided to make it with php/jquery/ajax.
First we create one single php file, which return the last id:
<?php
header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *');
require_once 'app/Mage.php';
umask(o);
Mage::app('default');
Mage::getSingleton('core/session', array('name'=>'frontend'));
$model = Mage::getModel('catalog/product'); //getting product model
$collection = $model->getCollection(); //products collection
foreach ($collection as $product) //loop for getting products
{
$id=$product->getId();
}
if($id)echo $id+1; //id of product
else{
echo 0;
}
?>
After step one I set the value of input (i.e. I auto generate the name):
if($j('#name').val()=='' && window.location.href.indexOf("admin/catalog_product/new/") > -1) {
$j.post('http://www.website.com/file.php', function(data) {
$j('#name').val('Item №'+data);
});
}
Thanks again for help.

Jordan!

Adding a custom field to Magento's subscription module

The newsletter subscription module in Magento has only one field (email) by default. After I add an extra field to the form (say country), how can I get the form data to show up in the Magento back-end and be sent as an email to a preset recipient? Thanks.
If you want to add some custom fields for Magento newsletter subscriber (for example subscriber_name), you should do the following:
Add new column for newsletter_subscriber table
Add text input to newsletter template
Create observer for newsletter_subscriber_save_before event
In the observer you can get your custom field's value from request and assign it to subscriber's object:
public function newsletterSubscriberSave(Varien_Event_Observer $observer)
{
$subscriber = $observer->getEvent()->getSubscriber();
$name = Mage::app()->getRequest()->getParam('subscriber_name');
$subscriber->setSubscriberName($name);
return $this;
}
UPDATE:
Here is the detailed article explaining how to add Country field
Also, I have created a free module, it is available on the GitHub
There are a few things that you need to take care of to make this work:
Add a new column for your data to the appropriate database table
Make sure that Magento saves your new field to the database
Present the data in the admin backend
Record the data when you get a new newsletter subscription
Here's how you can do all those things:
Ad. 1)
Using phpMyAdmin, MySQL command line, or whatever is your preferred DB manipulation method, add a new column "country" as, say, varchar(100) to the newsletter_subscriber table.
Ad. 2)
Magento will automatically give you access to the new field through the getCountry() and setCountry() methods on the Mage_Newsletter_Model_Subscriber object. The only thing it won't do is save your field back to the DB after it has been changed with code somewhere in the system. To get it saved you need to modify _prepareSave(Mage_Newsletter_Model_Subscriber $subscriber) function found in Mage_Newsletter_Model_Mysql4_Subscriber (app/code/core/Mage/Newsletter/Model/Mysql4/Subscriber.php). Be sure to make a local copy of the file first and not modify the core file. Here's what you need to add:
protected function _prepareSave(Mage_Newsletter_Model_Subscriber $subscriber)
{
$data = array();
$data['customer_id'] = $subscriber->getCustomerId();
$data['store_id'] = $subscriber->getStoreId()?$subscriber->getStoreId():0;
$data['subscriber_status'] = $subscriber->getStatus();
$data['subscriber_email'] = $subscriber->getEmail();
$data['subscriber_confirm_code'] = $subscriber->getCode();
//ADD A NEW FIELD START
//note that the string index for the $data array
//must match the name of the column created in step 1
$data['country'] = $subscriber->getCountry();
//ADD A NEW FIELD END
(...)
}
Ad. 3)
You will need to modify (a local copy of) the file app/code/core/Mage/Adminhtml/Block/Newsletter/Subscriber/Grid.php. The method you are looking for is called _prepareColumns(). In there you will see a series of calls to $this->addColumn(). You need to add a corresponding call for your "Country" field with the following code:
$this->addColumn('country', array(
'header' => Mage::helper('newsletter')->__('Country'),
//the index must match the name of the column created in step 1
'index' => 'country',
'default' => '----'
));
If you want the field to appear at the end of the grid (as the last column) add it as the last call, otherwise, squeeze it between the existing calls exactly where you want it to end up in the admin.
Ad. 4)
This is a part I did not have to do in my customization of the Magento newsletter, so it will be mostly theoretical. The subscription occurs in the controller located at app/code/core/Mage/Newsletter/controllers/SubscriberController.php. Here's the code of the newAction method with my proposed changes:
public function newAction()
{
if ($this->getRequest()->isPost() && $this->getRequest()->getPost('email')) {
$session = Mage::getSingleton('core/session');
$email = (string) $this->getRequest()->getPost('email');
try {
if (!Zend_Validate::is($email, 'EmailAddress')) {
Mage::throwException($this->__('Please enter a valid email address'));
}
$status = Mage::getModel('newsletter/subscriber')->subscribe($email);
if ($status == Mage_Newsletter_Model_Subscriber::STATUS_NOT_ACTIVE) {
$session->addSuccess($this->__('Confirmation request has been sent'));
}
else {
$session->addSuccess($this->__('Thank you for your subscription'));
}
//ADD COUNTRY INFO START
//at this point we may safly assume that subscription record was created
//let's retrieve this record and add the additional data to it
$subscriber = Mage::getModel('newsletter/subscriber')->loadByEmail($email);
//assuming that the input's id is "country"
$subscriber->setCountry((string) $this->getRequest()->getPost('country'));
//don't forget to save the subscriber!
$subscriber->save();
//ADD COUNTRY INFO END
}
catch (Mage_Core_Exception $e) {
$session->addException($e, $this->__('There was a problem with the subscription: %s', $e->getMessage()));
}
catch (Exception $e) {
$session->addException($e, $this->__('There was a problem with the subscription'));
}
}
$this->_redirectReferer();
}
Going through the above steps should take care of the most part of your problem. Let me know how that last part worked out, as I did not have a chance to test it.
Once you have your additional field in the Subscriber object you can do whatever you want with it. I did not really get what you mean by
be sent as an email to a preset recipient
If you can explain that I will try to help you out with this part too.
Edit - how to send a mail when someone subscribes
Just add the following code to the controller after the part which adds country to a subscriber object.
$mail = new Zend_Mail();
$mail->setBodyHtml("New subscriber: $email <br /><br />Country: ".$this->getRequest()->getPost('country'));
$mail->setFrom("youremail#email.com")
->addTo("admin#mysite.com")
->setSubject("Your Subject here");
$mail->send();
Adding to the accepted answer, you can also get away with this a little easier if you're adding a date, datetime, or timestamp-type column.
In my case, I wanted to add a "Subscribed at Date" to my grid. To do this, I wrote my upgrade script, column type being TIMESTAMP and the default value being CURRENT_TIMESTAMP. This way, when the row is added, the current date/time is recorded.
Then, all you have to do is add your block customizations. I'd suggest doing it by extending Magento's grid block rather than doing the local codepool override though. This way, you only need to override _prepareColumns();
Old thread but if someone has the same question, there is a free extension, that adds fields for gender, firstname and lastname and makes it available in the backend grid for export via xml/csv: http://www.magentocommerce.com/magento-connect/extended-newsletter-subscription-for-guests.html
Perhaps you can extend the code to fit your needs.
This is a warning for anyone who's installed the Ebizmarts_MailChimp extension.
It's a great extension. But it adds subscriber_firstname and subscriber_lastname to the newsletter_subscriber table.
If you intend to create these fields, you should either "require" the Ebizmarts_MailChimp extension or check the fields don't exist before your extension creates them.
In the opposite, where you've created them and want to install the the Ebizmarts_MailChimp extension after you've created these fields, you will have to comment out the addColumn code for these two fields during installation.
