As a Magento 2 developer, you come across a variety of business demands that need to be fulfilled to optimize the profit or customer service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a Magento 2 developer myself, I recently came across a client who sells the configurable products having a different combination of the simple products offering different payment methods. A combination can be bought with recurring payment method and another can be bought as a one time purchase. Now, as the recurring product cannot be combined with the other payment options, it was required to get simple product from Magento 2 configurable product Before add to cart<\/em><\/strong> and set up the restriction accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The below code helps you get the simple products from the configuration product being added to cart to handle the various validations and restrictions based on it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Method to Get Simple Product from Magento 2 Configurable Product Before Add to Cart\u201d<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1. Create events.xml<\/strong> at app\\code\\Vendor\\Extension\\etc\\<\/strong><\/em><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<?xml version=\"1.0\"?>\n<config xmlns:xsi=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2001\/XMLSchema-instance\"\n        xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation=\"urn:magento:framework:Event\/etc\/events.xsd\">\n    <event name=\"controller_action_predispatch_checkout_cart_add\">\n        <observer name=\"restrict_sales_model_cart_add_before\" instance=\"Vendor\\Extension\\Observer\\Cartadd\"\/>\n    <\/event>\n<\/config><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
2. Create Cartadd.php<\/strong> at app\/code\/Vendor\/Extension\/Observer\/<\/strong><\/em><\/em><\/strong><\/em><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
<?php\nnamespace Vendor\\Extension\\Observer;\nuse Magento\\Framework\\Event\\ObserverInterface;\nuse Magento\\Framework\\App\\Response\\RedirectInterface;\nuse Magento\\Checkout\\Model\\Cart;\nuse Magento\\Framework\\App\\RequestInterface;\nuse Magento\\Catalog\\Model\\Product;\nuse Magento\\ConfigurableProduct\\Model\\Product\\Type\\Configurable;\nclass Cartadd implements ObserverInterface\n{\n    protected $cart;\n    protected $redirect;\n    protected $request;\n    protected $product;\n    protected $configurableproduct;\n    public function __construct(RedirectInterface $redirect, Cart $cart, RequestInterface $request, Product $product, Configurable $configurableproduct)\n    {\n        $this->redirect = $redirect;\n        $this->cart = $cart;\n        $this->request = $request;\n        $this->product = $product;\n        $this->configurableproduct = $configurableproduct;\n    }\n    public function execute(\\Magento\\Framework\\Event\\Observer $observer)\n    {\n        $postValues = $this->request->getPostValue();\n        $productId = $postValues['product'];\n        $addProduct = $this->product->load($productId);\n        if ($addProduct->getTypeId() == \\Magento\\ConfigurableProduct\\Model\\Product\\Type\\Configurable::TYPE_CODE) \n        {\n            $attributes = $postValues['super_attribute'];\n            $simple_product = $this->configurableproduct->getProductByAttributes($attributes, $addProduct);\n        }\n    }\n}<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
That\u2019s it! Likewise you can get simple product ID from configurable product in Magento 2<\/a> and learn to get child product ID of configurable product by swatch options using jQuery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hope the readers find the easy solution right away unlike me to satisfy a client or do their Magento 2 development task quickly with this method!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
