Creating a addon module need help please...

[lphanishashank]

Hi,

 

I am pretty new to WHMCS and programming in general. I have a question regarding hooks I can use. Your help will be much appriciated.

I want to write a hook in a addon module to capture the client information after a product is purchased. The hook I am planning to write is like this in hook.php

 

function hook_capture_details($params)

{

$cpanel_serviceid = $vars["serviceid"];

$cpanel_accountid = $vars["accointid"];

$cpanel_domain = $vars["domain"];

}

add_hook("AfterModuleCreate",1,"hook_capture_details");

 

I now want to get the above variables into another php file where I will be needing these variables in another functions.

How can I do that?

 

Also I read in http://docs.whmcs.com/Hooks Module hooks that "To define hooks as part of a module, simple create a file named "hooks.php" within the module folder, and include all module specific hook related code within that file."

I did not get the exact meaning of that statement.

 

I understood by the above statement that to create hooks for modules I have to create a hook.php file in the module folder and write the different hooks for different addon modules all in the same hook.php file.

 

Did I interprit the statement correctly?

 

Please help me with this query.
