As an Opencart newbie, I'm adding the product with a static array just for testing the addProduct function but I could not get it to work.
Static array:
$data['pid'] = $this->model_catalog_product->addProduct([
'product_description' => [['name' => 'bakbuişte', 'description' => '', 'meta_title' => 'metaraba', 'meta_description' => '', 'meta_keyword' => '', 'tag' => '']],
'model' => 'amabigun',
'sku' => '',
'upc' => '',
'ean' => '',
'jan' => '',
'isbn' => '',
'mpn' => '',
'location' => '',
'price' => '',
'tax_class_id' => '0',
'quantity' => '1',
'minimum' => '1',
'subtract' => '1',
'stock_status_id' => '6',
'shipping' => '1',
'date_available' => '2019-12-31',
'length' => '',
'width' => '',
'height' => '',
'length_class_id' => '1',
'weight' => '',
'weight_class_id' => '1',
'status' => '1',
'sort_order' => '1',
'manufacturer' => '',
'manufacturer_id' => '',
'category' => '',
'filter' => '',
'product_store' => array(0 => '0',),
'download' => '',
'related' => '',
'option' => '',
'image' => '',
'points' => '',
'product_reward' => array(1 => array('points' => '',),),
'product_seo_url' => array(0 => array(1 => '',),),
'product_layout' => array(0 => '',)
]);
After this block, I see the entry in oc_product
table just like others but not in Admin > Catalog > Products list. Is there another little stuff that I should prepare?
Take a look at the addProduct()
function and you will see some code which performs inserts to the description
table like this:
foreach ($data['product_description'] as $language_id => $value) {
...
}
According to that logic, the array key is the language_id. In your array you have:
'product_description' => [['name' => 'bakbuişte', 'description' => '', 'meta_title' => 'metaraba', 'meta_description' => '', 'meta_keyword' => '', 'tag' => '']],
Since there is no array key defined, your description is assigned to key 0
. Do you have a language_id of 0
in your language table? Probably not. A typical (default) opencart installation has one language with language_id of 1
. With that in mind, your array should look like this:
'product_description' => [1 => ['name' => 'bakbuişte', 'description' => '', 'meta_title' => 'metaraba', 'meta_description' => '', 'meta_keyword' => '', 'tag' => '']],
The reason that things to fail when you write description rows with the wrong language_id is that the product list is retrieved with a query like this:
SELECT *
FROM product p
LEFT JOIN product_description pd ON (p.product_id = pd.product_id)
WHERE pd.language_id = '1';
Notice the where
condition at the end? If your description table is missing the corresponding row with language_id 1, the query will ignore your product row.
