I have to override customer ResourceModel's customer.php file in my custom module.
I have tried but its not working.so what is correct way to override Model? I follow below steps to override Model.

I have my own module called Namespace_Module with a di.xml file,

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"   xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="../../../../../lib/internal/Magento/Framework/ObjectManager/etc/config.xsd">
<preference for="Magento\Customer\Model\ResourceModel\Customer"   type="Namespace\Modulename\Model\ResourceModel\Customer" />
</config>

Then I have created php file, Namespace\Modulename\Model\ResourceModel\Customer.php and try to override core file.but its not working for me.

So please anyone help me to solve my problem.

  • I see the question was asked long back, but the issues are still relevant. In my case, I want to remove the Required validation of "Email" and there is no way to do that other than overriding the Resource model at vendor/magento/module-customer/Model/ResourceModel/Customer.php. The thing is that in _beforeSave() they explicitly check for whether the customer have Email and fails validation if not. My question is what is the point of 'is_required' property for the email in eav_attribute model? Anyone can create a disposable email nowadays and think about the spam registration you may get!

your file Namespace\Modulename\etc\di.xml code as below

<?xml version="1.0"?>    
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:ObjectManager/etc/config.xsd">
<preference for="Magento\Customer\Model\ResourceModel\Customer" type="Namespace\Modulename\Model\ResourceModel\Customer" />
</config>

Your Model code file Namespace\Modulename\Model\ResourceModel\Customer.php 

<?php
namespace Namespace\Modulename\Model\ResourceModel;

class Customer extends \Magento\Customer\Model\ResourceModel\Customer
{


    protected function _beforeSave(\Magento\Framework\DataObject $customer)
    {
        exit('test');
        //your code here
    }
}
?>

hope it will helpful to you

  • "First Name" is a required value. "First Name" length must be equal or greater than 1 characters. "Last Name" is a required value. "Last Name" length must be equal or greater than 1 characters. "My Attribute" is a required value. #0 C:\xampp\htdocs\magento2\vendor\magento\module-customer\Model\ResourceModel\Customer.php(143): Magento\Customer\Model\ResourceModel\Customer->_validate(Object(Magento\Customer\Model\Customer))C:\xampp\htdocs\magento2\app\code\Explorer\Logindialog\Model\ResourceModel\Customer.php:Magento\Customer\Model\ResourceModel\Customer I got this error.
