We’ll show you how to add category attributes in magento2 and display in category form. We show here 3 easy step for add category attribute and display attribute to category form.
Step 1: Create patch file for create category attribute. Create file below.app/code/MageDad/Module/Setup/Patch/Data/AddAttributeCategoryAttribute.php
<?php
declare(strict_types=1);
namespace MageDad\Module\Setup\Patch\Data;
use Magento\Catalog\Model\Product as ProductModel;
use Magento\Eav\Model\Entity\Attribute\ScopedAttributeInterface;
use Magento\Eav\Setup\EavSetupFactory;
use Magento\Framework\Setup\ModuleDataSetupInterface;
use Magento\Framework\Setup\Patch\DataPatchInterface;
use Magento\Catalog\Model\Category;
use Psr\Log\LoggerInterface;
use Throwable;
/**
* Add attribute to category
*/
class AddAttributeCategoryAttribute implements DataPatchInterface
{
public function __construct(
private ModuleDataSetupInterface $moduleDataSetup,
private EavSetupFactory $eavSetupFactory,
private LoggerInterface $logger,
) {
}
/**
* Attribute used for assigning Amplience content to category
*
* {@inheritdoc}
*/
public function apply()
{
$eavSetup = $this->eavSetupFactory->create(['setup' => $this->moduleDataSetup]);
$eavSetup->addAttribute(Category::ENTITY, 'attribute_code', [
'type' => 'text',
'label' => 'Attribute Name',
'note' => 'Attribute notes',
'input' => 'text',
'default' => '',
'sort_order' => 5,
'global' => ScopedAttributeInterface::SCOPE_STORE,
'group' => 'General Information',
'visible_on_front' => true
]);
}
/**
* {@inheritdoc}
*/
public static function getDependencies() {
return [];
}
/**
* {@inheritdoc}
*/
public function getAliases() {
return [];
}
}
Step 2: In this step we are going to add attribute in category form.
Create file – app/code/MageDad/Module/view/adminhtml/ui_component/category_form.xml
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<form xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:module:Magento_Ui:etc/ui_configuration.xsd">
<fieldset name="general">
<field name="attribute_code">
<argument name="data" xsi:type="array">
<item name="config" xsi:type="array">
<item name="required" xsi:type="boolean">false</item>
<item name="validation" xsi:type="array">
<item name="required-entry" xsi:type="boolean">false</item>
</item>
<item name="sortOrder" xsi:type="number">100</item>
<item name="dataType" xsi:type="string">string</item>
<item name="formElement" xsi:type="string">input</item>
<item name="label" translate="true" xsi:type="string">Attribute Name </item>
</item>
</argument>
</field>
</fieldset>
</form>
