How to handle service when it fails to renew

[WebhostingNZ.com]

Hey,

I currently have the below in my code.  A couple of times now a domain has failed to renew, this could be because the domain isn't registered, it's been moved to a different provider or many other reasons.  Blesta always seems to think the domain/service has been renewed is there a way to code so blesta will not mark it as renewed and move on?  I am aware of the CORE to add email for failed renew, but how do I code so it's even known to have failed?  The Dev Manual doesn't mention a return code on renewService() for a fail.   (I will be adding a mail() hack in for now so we at least know but would love a proper fix and to do it the right way).

$this->log("Domain Renew","Domain: " . serialize($fields->domain) . "| Term: " . $term,"input",true);
$response = $metaname->renew_domain_name($fields->domain, $term);
$this->log("Domain Renew",serialize($response),"output",true);

[EDIT] This should have been put in extensions forum sorry.

Thanks,
Daniel.

Normally this should be done via the module, which module your are using ?

in the renewService() when the module return a error for the renew action.

Hey @Blesta Addons

I'm using a module I have written.  I am wanting to know what is the format to return the error then?

return "error"  ;   return $this->input->errors()  ?

Return values for Module::renewService($package, $service, $parent_package = null, $parent_service = null) are either null or a set of meta fields (an array) containing the key value pairs "key", "value", and "encrypted":

public function renewService($package, $service, $parent_package = null, $parent_service = null)
{
	// Attempt to perform the renewal
	$renewal = ...;

	$service_fields = $this->serviceFieldsToObject($service->fields);

	if (there is an error) {
		// Error
		$this->Input->setErrors(['error' => ['type' => 'The service could not be renewed because of this error!']]);
	} else {
		// Success, the service was renewed. Update and return the meta fields
		return [
			[
				'key' => 'mymodule_renew_email',
				'value' => $service_fields->mymodule_renew_email,
				'encrypted' => 0
			],
			[
				'key' => 'mymodule_expiry_date',
				'value' => $renewal->expiry_date,
				'encrypted' => 0
			]
		];
	}

	// Return null to not change any meta fields
	return null;
}
