Creating own modules

[aph]

Hi,

I would like to create my own module. I basically tried to follow https://otrs.github.io/doc/manual/devel ... end-module

I took the AgentTicketActionCommon as the basis. And did following steps

1) Created a module registration using the Default Config File from the above link
2) I copied the file ..\Kernel\Modules\AgentTicketActionCommon.pm for the Frontend Module and changed:

Code: Select all

package Kernel::Modules::AgentTicketActionCommon;

to

Code: Select all

package Kernel::Modules::AgentTicketCustom;

3) I also created a dtl file and a language file as described in the documentation linked above

At this point I got stuck. I cannot find the Core Module that needs to be copied and edited accordingly. While file is to be used?

What do you want to do?

I want to add a button to menu module and define an action / link. On clicking this custom button, a dialog similar to 'Free fields' dialog should popup. The popup should contain a dynamic field (drop down list) which the user can set and a process is started based on generic agent.

I don't want to simply add dynamic fields in the free fields dialog since it already contains many fields. So basically I want to create a custom 'start process' button. How do I go about achieving this?
