Php – Magento Configurable Product Attributes

e-commercemagentoPHP

hey guys, having an issue with magento which i just cant seem to find a solution to.

i have tried many ways of getting a configurable products attributes (simple products) and listing them, now i have them listing from 2 ways but the way im working with is below

$confAttributes = @$_product->getTypeInstance(true)->getConfigurableAttributesAsArray($_product);

    $sizes = array();

    foreach($confAttributes AS $atts){
        //print '';//'<pre style="display:none;">'.print_r($atts).'</pre>';
        if($atts['label'] == 'Size'){

            foreach($atts['values'] AS $val){

                $sizes[] = $val['store_label']; 

            }   

        }

    }

my only problem with this now is i need to only pull back the size attributes which are in stock – looked through mage files to find solution but just cant see anything – the result i need is done in config product php file but i cant access it from in the code where i need to list the size attribute.

any help would be great, thanks!

Solution: You can get easily all configurable(product) details page information on any other PHTML file by using following code: e.g.: in my case i'm getting details on catalog/product/list.phtml.

 <script src="<?php echo Mage::getBaseUrl('js') ?>varien/configurable.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
        <?php
        $temp = new Mage_Catalog_Block_Product_View_Type_Configurable();
        $temp->setData('product', $_product);                    
        $_attributes = Mage::helper('core')->decorateArray($temp->getAllowAttributes()); 
        ?>
        <?php if ($_product->isSaleable() && count($_attributes)):?>
            <?php foreach($_attributes as $_attribute): ?>
            <?php
                $prices = $_attribute->getPrices();
                foreach($prices as $price) {
                    echo $price['pricing_value'] . "<br/>";
                }
            ?>
            <?php endforeach; ?>
            <script type="text/javascript">
                var spConfig = new Product.Config(<?php echo $temp->getJsonConfig() ?>);
            </script>
        <?php endif;?>

Thanks,

Magento API: Assigning preexisting simple products to configurable products

Well the notes here helped me get this running. So I thought I'd share with you the code to add a simple product to an existing Configurable Product.

This code assumes the simple product is a valid one to add, I'm not sure what would happen if it wasn't.

private function _attachProductToConfigurable( $_childProduct, $_configurableProduct ) {
   $loader = Mage::getResourceModel( 'catalog/product_type_configurable' )->load( $_configurableProduct );

   $ids = $_configurableProduct->getTypeInstance()->getUsedProductIds(); 
   $newids = array();
   foreach ( $ids as $id ) {
      $newids[$id] = 1;
   }

   $newids[$_childProduct->getId()] = 1;

   $loader->saveProducts( $_configurableProduct->getId(), array_keys( $newids ) );                
}

Php – Magento and configurable product attributes

When dealing with configurable products (or any time you're dealing with a concept for only one type of product, as configurable attributes are), you'll probably be working with getTypeInstance. See below, I grab the configurable attributes for the product, then find the one for size. You could also just run through every configurable attribute if you wanted. Or if size is the only configurable attribute, just skip that if().

$attrs  = $_product->getTypeInstance(true)->getConfigurableAttributesAsArray($_product);
foreach($attrs as $attr) {
    if(0 == strcmp("size", $attr['attribute_code'])) {
        $options    = $attr['values'];
        foreach($options as $option) {
            print "{$option['store_label']}<br />";
        }
    }
}

Hope that helps! Thanks,

Joe
