Link external JS file to Prestashop

问题

I'm creating a custom module in Prestashop 1.7, and I've tried many solutions but nothing solved my problem.

I would add an external JS file to the header or footer of the website where the module is installed (and only when it's installed).

<script src="https://cdn.monurl.com/file.js"></script> // JS file to include

I tried to use the addJS() method in the displayHeader hook:

public function hookDisplayHeader($params)
{
    if (!$this->active)
        return;

    $this->context->controller->addJS('https://cdn.monurl.com/file.js');
}

public function install()
{
    return parent::install() && $this->registerHook('displayHeader');
}

I made a lot of tests, and the hookDisplayHeader() function is called, but my JS file doesn't appear in the <head> of my page.

The Prestashop documentation is limited, but after many researches, I think I can only use the addJS() method with internal JS files. Am I right?

How should I do to add an external JS file to my header (or footer before </body>)?

回答1:

addJS() function is deprecated in PrestaShop 1.7. You now have to use registerJavascript().

    $this->context->controller->registerJavascript(
        'monurl', // Unique ID
        'https://cdn.monurl.com/file.js', // JS path
        array('server' => 'remote', 'position' => 'bottom', 'priority' => 150) // Arguments
    );

The important argument you must not forget here is 'server' => 'remote' to load an external JS file.

You can find more information about this function here in the doc: https://developers.prestashop.com/themes/assets/index.html

Another think about your code, you do not have to put:

if (!$this->active)
    return;

The entire hook will not be called if the module is disabled.

This method addJs is obsolete for Prestashop 1.7*. Use

$this->context->controller->registerJavascript('cdn', 'https://cdn.monurl.com/file.js', array('media' => 'all', 'priority' => 10, 'inline' => true, 'server' => 'remote'));

where first parameter is an identificator of a new script to avoid next its including if it was included once, the second parameter is a path to a media file, and the last parameter is an array with extra information about new media file where parameter 'server' point out that a file is on remote server. By the way, css files are including the same way now with the method $this->context->controller->registerStylesheet();

In PrestaShop 1.7 for a front-office page you need to use another method to add an external JS file: registerJavascript. But for a back-office page you can do it as usual.

So, for example, to add a JavaScript file to a front-office page from the https://ajax.googleapis.com website you need use the new method registerJavascript with the option 'server' => 'remote':

$this->context->controller->registerJavascript(
    'three.js',
    'https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/threejs/r84/three.min.js',
    ['position' => 'bottom', 'priority' => 100, 'server' => 'remote']
);

To add a CSS file you can use another new method of FrontController: registerStylesheet.
