Observer module checkout_submit_all_after

[rui_silva1]

Hey,

I'm trying to make a module that runs when an order is created, for that I think the best way is with the checkout_submit_all_after observer right?

I created a module it's enable with no problems at all but when I try to do a checkout it just don't complete.

events.xml

<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:Event/etc/events.xsd">
    <event name="checkout_submit_all_after">
        <observer name="onorder_created" instance="Custom\onOrderCreate\Observer\onOrder" />
    </event>
</config>

Observer\onOrder.php

<?php

namespace Custom\onOrderCreate\Observer;

use Magento\Framework\Event\ObserverInterface;
use Magento\Sales\Api\OrderRepositoryInterface;
use Magento\Catalog\Model\ProductRepository;

class onOrder implements OberserverInterface {

    public function __construct(  OrderRepositoryInterface $OrderRepositoryInterface, ProductRepository $ProductRepository, \Magento\Customer\Model\Session $customerSession) {
        $this->orderRepository = $OrderRepositoryInterface;
        $this->ProductRepository =$ProductRepository;
        $this->_customerSession = $customerSession;
    }

    public function execute(\Magento\Framework\Event\Observer $observer ) {        

        $order_ids = $observer->getEvent()->getOrderIds()[0];
        var_dump($order_ids);die;

        $order = $this->orderRepository->get($order_ids);
        foreach ($order->getAllItems() as $item) {
            //code here
        }
    }
}

for the observer I just used an example in other trend just to test it out. Even without the var_dump die it creates the order but in frontend just gives a red bar with ! (should have gone to a success page).

What am I doing wrong? There is problem that other modules use this same observer? Can I even use a var_dump there expecting a result?

Thanks

Where did you put the events.xml? Directly in the etc/ directory of your module?

Hi @rui_silva1 

You need to put your event.xml one of following location:

For Global:
<module-dir>/etc/events.xml

For Admin:
<module-dir>/etc/adminhtml/events.xml

For Frontend:
<module-dir>/etc/frontend/events.xml

You can also refer below url:

Addendum:

For REST API:
<module-dir>/etc/webapi_rest/events.xml

(Which is used the the One-Page-Checkout for example).
