Possible XML handles in Magento 2?

Question

I'm aware of how the XML system in Magento works with handles such as catalog_product_view.xml and catalog_category_view.xml to define resources for specific (sorts) of pages.

For seperate simple products I need to have different XML files. It should be possible via attribute sets and I found this list of obsolete handles, but I can't find any list of what would work.

I've tried to add products to an attribute set (ID 9) and creating catalog_product_view_attribute_set_id_9.xml which loads a JS file with a console.log for testing purposes; no result.

Does anyone have any insight on which layout handles I could use to make differences between the same product type?

Answer 1

Magento 2 introduces new layout handles.

First, there are the replacements for the M1 product types handles:

• catalog_product_view_type_simple.xml
• catalog_product_view_type_configurable.xml
• catalog_product_view_type_grouped.xml
• catalog_product_view_type_bundle.xml
• catalog_product_view_type_virtual.xml
• catalog_product_view_type_downloadable.xml

Then, there is the layout handle based on the product id:

• catalog_product_view_id_%productid% where %productid% is the id of the product

And finally, there is a layout handle based on the product sku:

• catalog_product_view_sku_%productsku% where %productsku% is the sku of the product

As of 2.1.2, there is no layout handle based on the attribute set.
