Hello,
i need to get the list of properties in media domaine inside advanced section in catalog.

I have a catalog with list of media for the catalog i can do:

Code: Select all

$homeTree->getConfig()

Then to get the media:

Code: Select all

($mediaItems = $this->homeTree->getRefItems('media', 'stage', 'default'))->isEmpty())

Now for each mediaItem how i can get the config properties ?

Is Like this:

Code: Select all

   $this->homeTree->getListItem('media','default',$mediaItem->getId())->getConfig();

Media items doesn't have a configuration but you can attach property items to them (type, language, value pairs) in the admin backend. Then, you can get them using:

Code: Select all

foreach($this->homeTree->getRefItems('media','default') as $mediaItem) {
	print_r($mediaItem->getProperties('<type of the property>'));
}

Thank you for you response.
It's a little complicated aimeos object.
With laravel Eloquent its easy to get child from parent even if the relation isnt loaded initially.
my question in home page i have a product object (Aimeos\MShop\Product\Item\Standard) and i need to access the variant product from this object how i can do that ?
i have tried but list empty:

Code: Select all

$product->getRefItems('attribute', null, 'variant')

That's one of the reasons we don't use Eloquent or something that offers that feature because this will load the related records on request. This turns into a performance nightmare if it's actually used because e.g. for a product list view with 100 products, 201 queries will be executed (one for all products, 100 for the relations and 100 for the attribute records) and people are complaining why it's so slow.

Contrary, in Aimeos you need to say upfront what should be loaded so there will be only three queries executed (one for the product, one for the relation and one for the attribute records).

Your code is correct but you need to configure that the product attributes should be loaded in the catalog/home component:
