Category Decorator and Product Variants

[stiller]

hi there.

did the behavior of the category decorator change in Version 2022.x?
before, when limiting delivery services to a category all variants of a selection products where included if the parent product was allocated to a category.
Now it doesn't work anymore.
What could be a working alternative?

cheers, V

If it doesn't work any more, this was not intentional. The code still uses the ID of the selection product for the check:
https://github.com/aimeos/aimeos-core/b ... y.php#L177

Can you check what happens there in your case?

[stiller]

up to this point everything seems to work as expected
$parentid contains the correct Selection Product ID
and the array $productIds contains [0] the ID of the Variant and [1] the ID of the Selection Product

[stiller]

after further tests I've to admit
the heading is misleading.
the category service decorator is not working at all.
even if I add the category directly to the variant product,
the required delivery service with the category.include argument doesn't show up.

the behavior seems to be as follows:
category.include > the required services are not displayed
category.exclude > services are displayed even if products in the basket are referenced to the excluded category

for further testing:
how do I print the serviceId inside the isAvailable function?

Can you please check what happens here:
https://github.com/aimeos/aimeos-core/b ... #L106-L127

To get the service item with ID, you can call "$this->getServiceItem()":
https://github.com/aimeos/aimeos-core/b ... #L119-L122
This should call the method of the nested provider object and return the item.

as far as I can see,
the function either returns 'null' or 'false'.
even if the category matches it returns 'false'

[aimeos]

Can you please find out why NULL or FALSE are returned?

[stiller]

in our case the function getCatalogIds always returns an empty array.
https://github.com/aimeos/aimeos-core/b ... y.php#L132

$filter seems to contain the right dataset, but
$manager->search( $filter )->keys()->all()
can't find the existing category entry.

[aimeos]

Can you add a debug output in the getCatalogIds() method with:

Code: Select all

print_r( $filter->__toArray() );

[stiller]

this is what I get
Array ( [&&] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [&&] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [==] => Array ( [catalog.code] => Array ( [0] => Spedition ) ) ) ) ) [1] => Array ( [&&] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [>=] => Array ( [catalog.status] => 1 ) ) ) ) ) )
