Trying to expose a simple text custom attribute on the mini cart for an item. I see the item get its data from vendor/magento/module-checkout/CustomerData/DefaultItem.php. Looking at the doGetItemData() method. I simply add an element to the array and just for testing sake hard code a string in it like so:
protected function doGetItemData()
{
$imageHelper = $this->imageHelper->init($this->getProductForThumbnail(), 'mini_cart_product_thumbnail');
return [
'options' => $this->getOptionList(),
'qty' => $this->item->getQty() * 1,
'item_id' => $this->item->getId(),
'configure_url' => $this->getConfigureUrl(),
'is_visible_in_site_visibility' => $this->item->getProduct()->isVisibleInSiteVisibility(),
'product_name' => $this->item->getProduct()->getName(),
'product_sku' => $this->item->getProduct()->getSku(),
'product_url' => $this->getProductUrl(),
'product_has_url' => $this->hasProductUrl(),
'product_price' => $this->checkoutHelper->formatPrice($this->item->getCalculationPrice()),
'product_price_value' => $this->item->getCalculationPrice(),
'product_image' => [
'src' => $imageHelper->getUrl(),
'alt' => $imageHelper->getLabel(),
'width' => $imageHelper->getWidth(),
'height' => $imageHelper->getHeight(),
],
'canApplyMsrp' => $this->msrpHelper->isShowBeforeOrderConfirm($this->item->getProduct())
&& $this->msrpHelper->isMinimalPriceLessMsrp($this->item->getProduct()),
'product_custom_attribute' => 'testing this here'
];
}
After clearing cache and going to the frontend and refresh the page, in the console I use localStorage.getItem('mage-cache-storage') to see what values ko pulls from, but the new attribute is never there. Any idea why this is not coming through?
EDIT: I got this kind of working, but have a bigger issue. The attribute is not coming through, but is being set the same for all products in the cart even if the attribute is empty for one of the products. So if one product have the attribute with valid text, all the others items in the cart object have that value. Any ideas? This is my current doGetItemData code:
$imageHelper = $this->imageHelper->init($this->getProductForThumbnail(), 'mini_cart_product_thumbnail');
$objectManager = \Magento\Framework\App\ObjectManager::getInstance();
$this->product = $objectManager->get('Magento\Catalog\Model\Product')->load($this->item->getProduct()->getId());
return [
'options' => $this->getOptionList(),
'qty' => $this->item->getQty() * 1,
'item_id' => $this->item->getId(),
'configure_url' => $this->getConfigureUrl(),
'is_visible_in_site_visibility' => $this->item->getProduct()->isVisibleInSiteVisibility(),
'product_name' => $this->item->getProduct()->getName(),
'product_sku' => $this->item->getProduct()->getSku(),
'product_url' => $this->getProductUrl(),
'product_has_url' => $this->hasProductUrl(),
'product_price' => $this->checkoutHelper->formatPrice($this->item->getCalculationPrice()),
'product_price_value' => $this->item->getCalculationPrice(),
'product_image' => [
'src' => $imageHelper->getUrl(),
'alt' => $imageHelper->getLabel(),
'width' => $imageHelper->getWidth(),
'height' => $imageHelper->getHeight(),
],
'canApplyMsrp' => $this->msrpHelper->isShowBeforeOrderConfirm($this->item->getProduct())
&& $this->msrpHelper->isMinimalPriceLessMsrp($this->item->getProduct()),
'product_custom_attribute' => $this->product->getCustomAttribute()
];
