I'm trying to find the best way to modify products collection for products grid in admin. In particular, to add additional filter to the collection. I don't want to override the grid's block to achieve that. Looks like I'm stuck and cant find a point to start using DI in this case. Also, I can't find any event for loading grid collection as it was in Magento 1.x If someone has experience in this I would be very appreciate for any info.

  • I'm not sure we're really there in terms of separation of concerns, but Magento2 is so different from Magento1 that I feel a need to separate the two entirely. Questions, inquiries... whatever - it all belongs somewhere else as this is an entirely different beast Mar 15, 2015 at 10:18
  • P.s. I raised the concern here: meta.magento.stackexchange.com/questions/541/… feel free to chime in if you want! Mar 15, 2015 at 10:21

    @ReidBlomquist it clearly says Magento 2 questions are allowed.

The easiest way is to create "before" plugin for Magento\Catalog\Block\Adminhtml\Product\Grid::setCollection and make with collection all that you want.
