How to self initialize a class in wp plugin development?












1














Below is a sample code for a WP plugin. I want to include a styleheet with a function in the class. But my 'init' hook won't run init function.



class RentProduct{

public function init() {

load_plugin_textdomain( 'eg', false, dirname( plugin_basename( __FILE__ ) ) . '/lang' );

add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', array( $this, 'register_plugin_styles' ) );

// add_filter( 'the_content', array( $this, 'append_post_notification' ) );
}


public function register_plugin_styles() {
wp_register_style( 'style', plugins_url( 'eg/assets/css/style.css' ) );
wp_enqueue_style( 'style' );
}
}

add_action( 'init', array( 'RentProduct', 'init' ));

          If I had my debug mode on earlier.. I could at earliest see error that $this is undefined. I was suppose to use class name instead of $this. Reason I cannot use $this is class is yet to be initialized and $this is instance of class. So $this would work fine in other methods of class coz initialization is already done at that time.



          class RentProduct{

          public static function init() {

          // load_plugin_textdomain( 'lang', false, dirname( plugin_basename( __FILE__ ) ) . '/lang' );

          add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', array( 'RentProduct' , 'register_plugin_styles' ) );

          // add_filter( 'the_content', array( $this, 'append_post_notification' ) );
          }


          public static function register_plugin_styles() {
          wp_register_style( 'main', plugins_url( 'wc-rent-products/assets/css/main.css' ) );
          wp_enqueue_style( 'main' );

            // create new instance from your class
            $rentProduct = new RentProduct();

            class RentProduct {
            // __construct will be called, if you call the class
