Locked Out

Driver door cable broken.
I disconnected battery and stripped door and removed cable to buy replacement.
Locked all doors from inside and shut hood.
Then realised the passenger door has no key lock!

How do I get back in without breaking a window.

I am thinking get the hood open somehow, connect battery then open rear door or use central locking to open other doors. How do I open the hood though?

On a lot of cars you can reach up from under the car and get to the battery cables enough to get them on. You might try this.
I don't think there is any way to get your hood open from the outside.
