Plugin isn't working in Magento2 local host

Question

My very basic plugin is not working and i can't understand why. I'm very new to Magento 2 so it's probably something simple. The Plugin is suppose to display "Too expensive" or "too cheap" on all products.

di.xml code

<config>
<type name="Inchoo\Custom\Plugins">
    <plugin name="Product" type="Inchoo\Custom\Plugins\Product" sortOrder="1" 
disabled="false"/>
</type>
</config>

Product.php code

<?php

namespace Inchoo\Custom\Plugins;

Class Product {
public function aftergetName(\Magento\Catalog\Model\Product $product, $name) 
{
  $price = $product ->getData(key:'price');
  if ($price < 60 ) {
    $name .= " So cheap" ;
}
  else {
    $name .= " Too expensive";
}

  return $name;
    }
}

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance, Greg

Answer 1

You di.xml file should have below code:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config>
<type name="Magento\Catalog\Model\Product">
    <plugin name="InchooProduct" type="Inchoo\Custom\Plugins\Product" sortOrder="1" 
disabled="false"/>
</type>
</config>

• Type name: A class, interface, or virtual type, which is observed by a plugin.
• Plugin name: A plugin name.

• Plugin type: The name of a plugin’s class or virtual type.

• Plugin sortOrder: Order, in which the plugins calling the same method are to be executed.

• Plugin disabled: This attribute defines whether the plugin is enabled or not. disabled="true" defines the plugin is disabled.

change your function name aftergetName to afterGetName

Answer 2

The method name needs to be afterGetName. Also getData(key:'price') is wrong. You can either use ->getData('price') or ->getPrice().

<?php

namespace Inchoo\Custom\Plugins;

Class Product {
public function afterGetName(\Magento\Catalog\Model\Product $product, $name) 
{
  $price = $product->getPrice();
  if ($price < 60 ) {
    $name .= " So cheap" ;
}
  else {
    $name .= " Too expensive";
}

  return $name;
    }
}

See if that works.
