I have included few code snippets which will guide you on how to get attribute code, attribute value, attribute label. Being a Magento developer its little difficult specially for beginner to get attribute values and labels. e.g. Options of color or manufacturer or size attribute, etc.
You may also need to find out what are the different options available for color attribute before you add new option programmatically.
Or you may need to add assign the option’s ID to a product. Here’s what you need to do.
Few Qick and Easy Ways, isn’t it! Code is below.
- // Lets say $_product is the product object.
- $_attributes = Mage::helper('core')->decorateArray($_product->getAllowAttributes());
- foreach($_attributes as $_attribute):
- // Get Attribute Code
- $attCode = $_attribute->getProductAttribute()->getFrontend()->getAttribute()->getAttributeCode();
- // Get Attribute Id
- $attrId = $_attribute->getAttributeId();
- foreachend;
In following example $product_id is current product, for whom you want to fetch attribute value.
- Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->load($product_id)->getAttributeText("size")
- // Change the attribute code here.
- $attribute=$product->getResource()->getAttribute("color");
- // Checking if the attribute is either select or multiselect type.
- if($attribute->usesSource()){
- // Getting all the sources (options) and print as label-value pair
- $options = $attribute->getSource()->getAllOptions(false);
- print_r($options);
- }
