Pirep accepted email[SOLVED]

[Virtualei]

Hi,

Has anyone ever produced something that sends an email to the pilot when their pirep has been accepted. I have looked in the forums and have found similar like email pireps data but have been unable to find what I am after. Maybe even an email to say Pirep accepted or if rejected and the reason ??

Looking forward to hearing from someone

I have something that sends an email of the submitted PIREP to the pilot. Maybe you can change its code to send the email when PIREP is accepted. It's actually pretty easy to do.

Here, try this but I haven't tested it:

# Send an email to the pilot who submitted that PIREP
//PILOT INFO
 $pilotfirstname = $pilotinfo->firstname;
 $pilotlastname= $pilotinfo->lastname;
 $email = $pilotinfo->email;
 //PIREP INFO (This all goes into the email, we will need to add those into the TPL
 $code = $pirepdata['code'];
 $flightnum = $pirepdata['flightnum'];
 Template::Set('pilotinfo', $pilotinfo);
 Template::Set('flight', $pirepdata);
 $sub = 'Flight Report for: '.$code.''.$flightnum;
 $message = Template::Get('email_pirep_accep.tpl', true);
 $pireps = self::getLastReports($pilotinfo->pilotid, 1);
 if($pireps->accepted == "1")
  {
   Util::SendEmail($email, $sub, $message);
  }

Now you need to make a file named "email_pirep_accep.tpl" and write in there whatever you want to tell your pilots about their PIREP and you need to add this to your PIREPData.class.php inside the function filePIREP() around line 800. Mine is at line 842

Let me know if it works or not

Hi Parko mate,

Ok here is my email_pirep_accep.tpl which I placed in my skins folder

Dear <?php echo $firstname. ' ' .$lastname?>,
Your pirep has been accepted.
To view it, visit:
<?php echo SITE_URL;?>/index.php/pireps/view/<?php echo $pirepid;?>
Thanks!
The <?php echo SITE_NAME;?> Team

now I have added the code you supplied from line 800. but i dont think I have it in the right place

* Update a specific PIREP
 *
 * @param int $pirepid ID of PIREP to update
 * @param array $pirepdata Dictionary array of fields to update
 * @param bool $recalc_finances Recalculate finances or not (fields must be passed!)
 * @return
 */
public static function updateFlightReport($pirepid, $pirepdata, $recalc_finances = true) {
 if (!is_array($pirepdata)) {
	 return false;
 }
 if ($pirepdata['depicao'] == '' || $pirepdata['arricao'] == '') {
	 return false;
 }
 $pirepinfo = self::getReportDetails($pirepid);
 if(isset($pirepdata['fuelused']) && isset($pirepdata['fuelunitcost'])) {
	 $pirepdata['fuelprice'] = $pirepdata['fuelused'] * $pirepdata['fuelunitcost'];
 }
 if(isset($pirepdata['flighttime'])) {
	 $flighttime_stamp = str_replace('.', ':', $pirepdata['flighttime']) . ':00';
	 $pirepdata['flighttime'] = str_replace(':', ',', $pirepdata['flighttime']);
 }
 # Send an email to the pilot who submitted that PIREP
	 //PILOT INFO
	 $pilotfirstname = $pilotinfo->firstname;
	 $pilotlastname= $pilotinfo->lastname;
	 $email = $pilotinfo->email;
	 //PIREP INFO (This all goes into the email, we will need to add those into the TPL
		 $code = $pirepdata['code'];
	 $flightnum = $pirepdata['flightnum'];
		 Template::Set('pilotinfo', $pilotinfo);
	 Template::Set('flight', $pirepdata);
	 $sub = 'Flight Report for: '.$code.''.$flightnum;
 $message = Template::Get('email_pirep_accep.tpl', true);
	 $pireps = self::getLastReports($pilotinfo->pilotid, 1);
	 if($pireps->accepted == "1")
 {
		 Util::SendEmail($email, $sub, $message);
 }
 # Recalculate finances if these fields are set...
 if($recalc_finances === true) {

	 $data = array(
		 'price' => $pirepdata['price'],
		 'load' => $pirepdata['load'],
		 'expenses' => $pirepdata['expenses'],
		 'fuelprice' => $pirepdata['fuelprice'],
		 'pilotpay' => $pirepdata['pilotpay'],
		 'flighttime' => $pirepdata['flighttime'],
	 );

	 $gross = floatval($pirepdata['load']) * floatval($pirepdata['price']);
	 $revenue = self::getPIREPRevenue($data, $pirepinfo->paytype);
	 $pirepdata = array_merge($pirepdata, array(
		 'flighttime_stamp' => $flighttime_stamp,
		 'gross' => $gross,
		 'revenue' => $revenue,
		 )
	 );

Am I in the correct file core/common/PIREPData.class.php

[Parkho]

Yes, but you'll need to find the filePIREP() function and place it in there, right now you're in updatePIREP() function

[Parkho]

You also need to change what's in your .tpl to the following:

Dear <?php echo $pilotinfo->firstname. ' ' .$pilotinfo->lastname?>,
Your pirep has been accepted.
To view it, visit:
<?php echo SITE_URL;?>/index.php/pireps/view/<?php echo $pirepdata->pirepid;?>
Thanks!

I have emailed you Parko

[Virtualei]

Don't forget to change this:

Dear <?php echo $pilotinfo->firstname. ' ' .$pilotinfo->lastname?>,
Your pirep has been accepted.
To view it, visit:
<?php echo SITE_URL;?>/index.php/pireps/view/<?php echo $pirepdata->pirepid;?>
Thanks!

Have sent you a pm mate, the email is not sending

[Parkho]

Okay try this:

# Send an email to the pilot who submitted that PIREP
//PILOT INFO
 $pilotfirstname = $pilotinfo->firstname;
 $pilotlastname= $pilotinfo->lastname;
 $email = $pilotinfo->email;
 //PIREP INFO (This all goes into the email, we will need to add those into the TPL
 $code = $pirepdata['code'];
 $flightnum = $pirepdata['flightnum'];
 Template::Set('pilotinfo', $pilotinfo);
 Template::Set('flight', $pirepdata);
 $sub = 'Flight Report for: '.$code.''.$flightnum;
 $message = Template::Get('email_pirep_accep.tpl', true);
  if($pirepdata['accepted'] == "1")
  {
    Util::SendEmail($email, $sub, $message);
  }

[Virtualei]

still not sending Parko

[Parkho]

Nothing at all or maybe an empty email?

[Virtualei]

no email at all mate

[Parkho]

Okay i know why

Wait a bit I'll let you know

[Virtualei]

ok

[Parkho]

Okay, open admin/module/PIREPAdmin and paste the following in the approve_pirep_post() function at the very end. I think it should go through:

# Send an email to the pilot who submitted that PIREP
//PILOT INFO
 $pilotfirstname = $pilotinfo->firstname;
 $pilotlastname= $pilotinfo->lastname;
 $email = $pilotinfo->email;
 //PIREP INFO (This all goes into the email, we will need to add those into the TPL
 $code = $pirepdata['code'];
 $flightnum = $pirepdata['flightnum'];
 Template::Set('pilotinfo', $pilotinfo);
 Template::Set('flight', $pirepdata);
 $sub = 'Flight Report for: '.$code.''.$flightnum;
 $message = Template::Get('email_pirep_accep.tpl', true);

Util::SendEmail($email, $sub, $message);

[Virtualei]

I am getting this in my admin centre

Notice: The template file "/home/airlingu/public_html//admin/templates/email_pirep_accep.tpl" doesn't exist in /home/airlingu/public_html/core/classes/TemplateSet.class.php on line 226

[Parkho]

Okay then the tpl should go to admin/templates.

[Virtualei]

Ok Parko got rid of the error but still no email mate

[Parkho]

Okay here is my last shot :

# Send an email to the pilot who submitted that PIREP
//PILOT INFO

 $pilotfirstname = Auth::$userinfo->firstname;
 $pilotlastname= Auth::$userinfo->lastname;
 $email = Auth::$userinfo->email;
 //PIREP INFO (This all goes into the email, we will need to add those into the TPL
 $code = $pirep_details->code;
 $flightnum = $pirep_details->flightnum;
 Template::Set('pilotinfo', Auth::$userinfo);
 Template::Set('flight', $pirep_details);
 $sub = 'Flight Report for: '.$code.''.$flightnum;
 $message = Template::Get('email_pirep_accep.tpl', true);
Util::SendEmail($email, $sub, $message);

[Virtualei]

Ok Parko I just got 4 emails through so I dont know which version worked. Gimme 5 mins mate

[Parkho]

okay.

[Virtualei]

Ok mate I am getting 4 emails for each pirep. Feast or a famine lol

[Parkho]

lol, okay all the same?

[Virtualei]

The link in the email to the report isnt going to the correct page. I can live with that. How do you think I should get it to one email. Should i remove the extra code in pirepdataclass.php

[Parkho]

of course! you only need the code in one place

[Virtualei]

I have removed the code as we said and have left it in the admintemplates and modules but i am still getting 4 emails. I am going to leave it for tonight mate. Thanks for all your help. Maybe catch you tommorrow

[Parkho]

right on, good night then

[Virtualei]

Hi Parko,

I have had a look at this today with a fresh head. The last code sends out multiple emails[all the same email] even before the pirep has been accepted by admin. I tried moving the code from the Admin/modules to core/modules but the same thing happened. I tried adding

if($pirepdata['accepted'] == "1")

but then nothing was emailed.

Are we at a loose end mate
