Get module id in helper file

Question

I need to get id of current module in helper.php file of mod_menu. But there is no module parameters in this script.

Answer 1

I am not suer what exactly you are trying to do but the module Id is known to the module's main php file (mymodule.php)

So the only thing you have to do is pass to the helper's function as a param that value.

mymodule.php

<?php
JLoader::register('ModMyModuleHelper', __DIR__ . '/helper.php');

ModMyModuleHelper::myHelpersFunction($module->id); // call the function in helper.

Then in your helper file in this function you will have the id

helper.php

<?php
defined('_JEXEC') or die;

class ModMyModuleHelper
{

 public static function myFunction($moduleId) {
    echo $moduleId;
 }

Hope this helps
