Prestashop - How can I add image at the time of product create from code

Question

I have the code through which I am able to create a new prestashop product. I am not able to get some working code that can add image at the time of product create (new product created).

I got few links that shares image upload way but none of it worked. Can someone guide me how can I proceed

prestashop add images to products

How to add image during programmatic product import in prestashop?

Working Code

$product = new Product();        // insert case
// $product = new Product(7467); // update case
$product->name = [$default_lang => $roomname . '/' . $hotelname . ' (Room/Hotel/Ratekey)'];
$product->link_rewrite = [$default_lang => 'hotels'];
$product->price = $price;
$product->description = $ratekey;
$product->id_category = [30];
$product->id_category_default = 30;

// add products
if($product->add()) {
                          $product->updateCategories($product->id_category);
                          StockAvailable::setQuantity((int)$product->id, 0, $product->quantity, Context::getContext()->shop->id);
                        }

// need to write code that adds the image along with the newly product created.

When I run the code with new product it's image should also be updated.

I managed to fix image upload issue. This is for those who might face same issue.

Firstly image upload will work only in controller page and not in core PHP page so call the page on controller.

Suppose in the tpl link you have a button whose on event you will go to the controller

<form id="myform" action="{$link->getModuleLink('hotelapi', 'testing')|escape:'html'}" method="post">
        <input type="hidden" name="testing">
        <input type="submit" name="testsubmit" value="Test Link" />
</form>

mymodule/controllers/front/addtocart.php

<?php
// class customTestingController extends ModuleFrontController
class hotelapiAddtocartModuleFrontController extends ModuleFrontController
{
    /*public function init()
    {
        echo $_POST['test'];
        echo 'kkkkkkkkkk'; die('dddddddddddd');
    }*/

    public function postProcess()
    {       

        /*===================== Handeling Image for Prestashop Upload: Start ===================== */
             $query = "SELECT `id_product` FROM `"._DB_PREFIX_."product` ORDER BY id_product DESC LIMIT 1";
             $id = Db::getInstance()->executeS($query);
             $id_product = $id[0]['id_product'];

             $langId = (int) (Configuration::get('PS_LANG_DEFAULT'));


                // checking image
                $image = new Image();
                $image->id = 1;
                $image->position = Image::getHighestPosition($id_product) + 1;
                $image->cover = true; // or false;
                $image->id_product = intval($id_product);

                if(Image::getImagesTotal($id_product)>0)
                 $image->cover = false;
