You need to have a compression and oil pressure test run. Do not drive it to the shop. Have it towed. Running this engine in this condition will do some serious damage. You have zero (0) oil pressure and that is why it is knocking and showing no oil pressure. It may be damaged so badly it needs and overhaul. It all depends on how much you drove it after this happened. If you immediately shut it down there may be very little damage. If you continued to drive then it will have serious damage.

What's your oil pressure like? I'm not asking how much oil you have... is your oil pump able to provide enough oil volume and pressure to allow the engine to run properly? If not, the engine will knock and tear itself apart. Oil pressure will reduce if the engine bearings are worn and the oil leaks out so fast that the oil pump can't keep up.
