A developer can migrate PrestaShop Back Office controllers from legacy to Symfony by building a demo module wkdemomodule<\/strong><\/code> with a simple create, save, and list form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Migrating PrestaShop legacy Controllers to Symfony<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

From PrestaShop 1.7, the Back Office uses Symfony. Migrating legacy module controllers to Symfony provides clean routing, dependency injection, and reusable Twig templates for easier maintenance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We will create wkdemomodule<\/strong>, featuring a Symfony-based grid (list) and a form to manage custom data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Module Structure<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Your module folder should look like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

wkdemomodule\/\n\u251c\u2500\u2500 config\/\n\u2502   \u2514\u2500\u2500 routes.yml\n\u251c\u2500\u2500 src\/\n\u2502   \u2514\u2500\u2500 Controller\/\n\u2502       \u2514\u2500\u2500 Admin\/\n\u2502           \u2514\u2500\u2500 DemoController.php\n\u251c\u2500\u2500 views\/\n\u2502   \u2514\u2500\u2500 templates\/\n\u2502       \u2514\u2500\u2500 admin\/\n\u2502           \u2514\u2500\u2500 demo\/\n\u2502               \u251c\u2500\u2500 index.html.twig\n\u2502               \u2514\u2500\u2500 form.html.twig\n\u251c\u2500\u2500 wkdemomodule.php\n\u2514\u2500\u2500 composer.json<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
\"Module<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
2. Setting up Autoloading<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
In your composer.json<\/strong>, define the namespace for your src<\/strong> directory:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
{\n  "name": "wk\/wkdemomodule",\n  "type": "prestashop-module",\n  "autoload": {\n    "psr-4": {\n      "WkDemoModule\\\\": "src\/"\n    }\n  },\n  "config": {\n    "prepend-autoloader": false\n  }\n}<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
After creating the file, run composer dump-autoload<\/strong><\/code> to refresh the autoloader.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After running the command, the vendor<\/code> A folder is created inside the module directory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
3. Defining Symfony Routes<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Create config\/routes.yml<\/strong>. This tells PrestaShop which URL maps to your Symfony controller.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
wk_demo_list:\n  path: \/wk-demo\/list\n  methods: [GET]\n  defaults:\n    _controller: 'WkDemoModule\\Controller\\Admin\\DemoController::indexAction'\n    _legacy_classname: AdminWkDemo\n    _legacy_module_name: wkdemomodule\n\nwk_demo_create:\n  path: \/wk-demo\/create\n  methods: [GET, POST]\n  defaults:\n    _controller: 'WkDemoModule\\Controller\\Admin\\DemoController::createAction'\n    _legacy_classname: AdminWkDemo\n    _legacy_module_name: wkdemomodule\n    \nwk_demo_edit:\n  path: \/wk-demo\/edit\/{id}\n  methods: [GET, POST]\n  defaults:\n    _controller: 'WkDemoModule\\Controller\\Admin\\DemoController::editAction'\n    _legacy_classname: AdminWkDemo\n    _legacy_module_name: wkdemomodule<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
4. The Symfony Controller<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Create src\/Controller\/Admin\/DemoController.php<\/strong>. This controller will handle the logic for displaying the list and saving the form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<?php\n\nnamespace WkDemoModule\\Controller\\Admin;\n\nuse PrestaShopBundle\\Controller\\Admin\\FrameworkBundleAdminController;\nuse Symfony\\Component\\HttpFoundation\\Request;\nuse Symfony\\Component\\HttpFoundation\\Response;\n\nclass DemoController extends FrameworkBundleAdminController\n{\n    public function indexAction(): Response\n    {\n        $data = $this->getDemoData();\n\n        return $this->render(\n            '@Modules\/wkdemomodule\/views\/templates\/admin\/demo\/index.html.twig',\n            [\n                'gridData' => $data,\n                'layoutHeaderToolbarBtn' => [\n                    'add' => [\n                        'href' => $this->generateUrl('wk_demo_create'),\n                        'desc' => $this->trans('Add New', 'Modules.Wkdemomodule.Admin'),\n                        'icon' => 'add_circle_outline',\n                    ],\n                ],\n            ]\n        );\n    }\n\n    public function createAction(Request $request): Response\n    {\n        if ($request->isMethod('POST')) {\n            $name = $request->request->get('demo_name');\n\n            \/\/ Normally you would save data here\n            \/\/ This is kept simple for demo purposes\n\n            $this->addFlash(\n                'success',\n                $this->trans('Item created successfully.', 'Admin.Notifications.Success')\n            );\n\n            return $this->redirectToRoute('wk_demo_list');\n        }\n\n        return $this->render(\n            '@Modules\/wkdemomodule\/views\/templates\/admin\/demo\/form.html.twig'\n        );\n    }\n\n    public function editAction(Request $request, int $id): Response\n    {\n        $data = $this->getDemoData();\n\n        if (!isset($data[$id])) {\n            throw $this->createNotFoundException('Item not found');\n        }\n\n        $item = $data[$id];\n\n        if ($request->isMethod('POST')) {\n            $name = $request->request->get('demo_name');\n\n            \/\/ Demo update logic (normally DB update here)\n            $item['name'] = $name;\n\n            $this->addFlash(\n                'success',\n                $this->trans('Item updated successfully.', 'Admin.Notifications.Success')\n            );\n\n            return $this->redirectToRoute('wk_demo_list');\n        }\n\n        return $this->render(\n            '@Modules\/wkdemomodule\/views\/templates\/admin\/demo\/form.html.twig',\n            [\n                'demoItem' => $item,\n                'isEdit' => true,\n            ]\n        );\n    }\n\n    private function getDemoData()\n    {\n        return [\n            1 => ['id' => 1, 'name' => 'Demo Item 1', 'status' => 'Active'],\n            2 => ['id' => 2, 'name' => 'Demo Item 2', 'status' => 'Inactive'],\n        ];\n    }\n}<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
5. Main Module<\/strong> file<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
In wkdemomodule.php<\/strong>, you must register the tab so it appears in the Back Office menu, linking it to your Symfony route.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<?php\n\nif (!defined('_PS_VERSION_')) {\n    exit;\n}\n\nclass WkDemoModule extends Module\n{\n    public function __construct()\n    {\n        $this->name = 'wkdemomodule';\n        $this->tab = 'administration';\n        $this->version = '1.0.0';\n        $this->author = 'WK';\n        $this->bootstrap = true;\n\n        parent::__construct();\n\n        $this->displayName = $this->l('WK Demo Module');\n        $this->description = $this->l('Demo module using Symfony Back Office controller.');\n    }\n\n    public function install()\n    {\n        return parent::install() && $this->installTab();\n    }\n\n    public function uninstall()\n    {\n        return parent::uninstall() && $this->uninstallTab();\n    }\n\n    private function installTab()\n    {\n        $tab = new Tab();\n        $tab->active = 1;\n        $tab->class_name = 'AdminWkDemo';\n        $tab->route_name = 'wk_demo_list';\n        $tab->module = $this->name;\n        $tab->id_parent = (int) Tab::getIdFromClassName('AdminParentCustomer');\n\n        foreach (Language::getLanguages(true) as $lang) {\n            $tab->name[$lang['id_lang']] = 'WK Demo Module';\n        }\n\n        return $tab->add();\n    }\n\n    private function uninstallTab()\n    {\n        $idTab = (int) Tab::getIdFromClassName('AdminWkDemo');\n        if ($idTab) {\n            $tab = new Tab($idTab);\n            return $tab->delete();\n        }\n        return true;\n    }\n}<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
6. List View (Twig)<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Create views\/templates\/admin\/demo\/index.html.twig<\/strong>. Symfony controllers use Twig instead of Smarty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
{% extends '@PrestaShop\/Admin\/layout.html.twig' %}\n\n{% block content %}\n<div class="card">\n  <h3 class="card-header">\n    <i class="material-icons">list<\/i>\n    {{ 'Demo Data List'|trans({}, 'Modules.Wkdemomodule.Admin') }}\n  <\/h3>\n\n  <div class="card-body">\n    <table class="table">\n      <thead>\n        <tr>\n          <th>ID<\/th>\n          <th>Name<\/th>\n          <th>Status<\/th>\n          <th>Actions<\/th>\n        <\/tr>\n        <\/thead>\n        <tbody>\n        {% for item in gridData %}\n        <tr>\n          <td>{{ item.id }}<\/td>\n          <td>{{ item.name }}<\/td>\n          <td>{{ item.status }}<\/td>\n          <td>\n            <a href="{{ path('wk_demo_edit', {id: item.id}) }}"\n              class="btn btn-sm btn-primary">\n              <i class="material-icons">edit<\/i>\n              Edit\n            <\/a>\n          <\/td>\n        <\/tr>\n        {% endfor %}\n        <\/tbody>\n    <\/table>\n  <\/div>\n<\/div>\n{% endblock %}<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
7. Create Form View<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Create views\/templates\/admin\/demo\/form.html.twig<\/strong>. Symfony controllers use Twig instead of Smarty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
{% extends '@PrestaShop\/Admin\/layout.html.twig' %}\n\n{% block content %}\n<div class="card">\n  <h3 class="card-header">\n    <i class="material-icons">edit<\/i>\n    {{ isEdit is defined ? 'Edit Demo Item' : 'Add Demo Item' }}\n  <\/h3>\n\n  <div class="card-body">\n    <form method="post">\n      <div class="form-group">\n        <label>{{ 'Name'|trans({}, 'Admin.Global') }}<\/label>\n        <input type="text"\n               name="demo_name"\n               class="form-control"\n               value="{{ demoItem.name|default('') }}"\n               required>\n      <\/div>\n\n      <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">\n        {{ 'Save'|trans({}, 'Admin.Actions') }}\n      <\/button>\n    <\/form>\n  <\/div>\n<\/div>\n{% endblock %}<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
