在PrestaShop中自动加载PHP库以运输运输模块

Question

I want to use this library in PrestaShop shipping carrier modules: https://github.com/dvdoug/BoxPacker

The BoxPacker library determines the number and size of boxes required from an available list to pack the selected items. I will use the library in shipping carrier modules, such as fedexcarrier, to retrieve more accurate shipping rates. The library uses namespace and is PSR-4 compliant.

I don't know how to integrate it with PrestaShop v1.5.6.2. How can I integrate the library with PrestaShop (using composer?) and make it available in the shipping modules using PrestaShop's autoloader?

Answer 1

You just need to clone the specific shipping module and add this feature just the way you would add it in a custom script. There's nothing special in PrestaShop or any other script regarding such integration. You need to include the class files where they are required explicitly.

For example if you use this classes within the main module file, you need to include them before the class declaration.
