Given a Magento\Catalog\Api\Data\ProductInterface $product and string $attributeCode of an arbitrary attribute, I can access the attribute value, using:

$product->getCustomAttribute($attributeCode)->getValue();

This is the Service Contract variant of $product->getData($attributeCode)

Now I'm looking for an equivalent to $product->getAttributeText($attributeCode) because the attribute might be a "select" or "multiselect" type.

Is it possible, using only Service Contracts? If I load the attribute, using Magento\Catalog\Api\ProductAttributeRepositoryInterface, I could use $attribute->getFrontend()->getValue(), but this is again using implementation details that are not part of the Service Contract API.

  • Mate I'm afraid you're going to face a lot of walls trying to go the Service Contracts way for everything you want to achieve. But I'm with you, we should do some PR – Raphael at Digital Pianism Jun 6 '16 at 8:45
  • True, but I'm going to continue to ask these questions when I'm hitting walls, and if it's just to highlight, where the API is incomplete, especially when it's about the catalog. – Fabian Schmengler Jun 6 '16 at 8:49
  • Totally agree with you – Raphael at Digital Pianism Jun 6 '16 at 8:51
