item_attributes

{% component type: "item_attributes", module: "<Module name/ID>", itemId: "<Item Id>" %}

Parameters and Options

Parameter
Values
Required
Description
type
item_attributes

This is the name of the entity that needs to be used for the component retrieving function.

module
<Module name/ID>
The module’s entity/alias name or ID that the data is to be sourced from.
itemId
<Item ID>
The module item ID (specific Product) the data is to be sourced from
layout
<path/to/layout>

Path to file that will contain the Liquid layout content to be parsed.

If an empty string, nothing will be rendered.
If paramater is not included, the default virtual layout will be rendered (see below).

object
item
collection (default)

Determines the method for Liquid rendering.
item returns each item iteratively, one after another, for output (generally, output to a container element with no need for looping through the data).
collection returns all items as one collection for output (your container element and looping logic would be handled in the Components Layout).
includeTax
false (default)
true

When true, renders the attribute's display price inclusive of tax. If false, or the parameter is not included the display price will be exclusive of tax.

collectionVariable
<yourLiquidVariableName>

Assigns the data to a Liquid collection enabling further access to the data on the Page or Template using Liquid.

Your collectionVariable value must only contain English letters, numbers or underscores. Spaces or special characters are not supported.

Liquid Output

The below example shows the attributes available for the specified product ID. The Liquid data output from this example would look like the following (for example, when using a collectionVariable to create the collection):

Virtual Layout

Based on the above example, if not using any custom layout or collection, the default virtual layout will output as form elements (depending on their attributeType):

Size


<form name="productAttributeForm_{{this.eCommerceItemId}}" data-ecommerce_item="{{this.eCommerceItemId}}">
    {% for attribute in this.attributes %}
        <h3 >{{attribute.name}}</h3>
        {% case attribute.attributeType %}

                <div class="cms_fake_select" data-attr_group="{{attribute.id}}">
                   <select name="attr_{{this.eCommerceItemId}}_{{attribute.id}}">

Accessing the Data

JSON Output

You can output the full JSON for your component data by referencing the root Liquid object {{this}} in your module’s layouts, or directly on your page, if using the collectionVariable parameter in your component tag.

For example:

{% component type: ... collectionVariable: "myData" %}

You can then render the JSON like so:

{{myData}}

For more details on using this approach, see Part 2 of the free ‘Learning Liquid Course’.

Rendering Property Values

This data is accessible directly on the Page or Template via a Liquid Collection if collectionVariable was added to the Component.

An example using collectionVariable with value "attrCollection":

{% component type: "item_attributes", module: "2485", itemId: "2535", collectionVariable: "attrCollection" %}

Using the following forloop directly on the page:

<ul>
    {% for attr in attrCollection.attributes %}
        <li>{{attr['name']}}</li>
    {% endfor %}
</ul>

Renders all the item names in a list:

  • Size

Accessing a specific item within the collection. In this case the third attributes option (zero based index), which in our example would render the value Large

{{attrCollection.attributes[0].options[2]['name']}}
