Hello Guys! \ud83d\udc4b<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Magento 2 managed product by EAV model. EAV Stands for Entity-Attribute-Value<\/strong>. So if we want to add attributes to a product then we can’t simply add a column to the product table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So we need to follow the following way to add custom product attributes in our store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now Magento 2 does not support the old setup data method to add attributes so we need to follow the data patch method to add product attributes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The following code is helpful for creating custom product attributes using DataPatch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Step 1: Add ProductAttribute.php<\/strong> file in following path<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
app\\code\\Vendor\\Extension\\Setup\\Patch\\Data<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n
\n&lt;?php\nnamespace Vendor\\Extension\\Setup\\Patch\\Data;\n\nuse Magento\\Eav\\Model\\Entity\\Attribute\\ScopedAttributeInterface;\nuse Magento\\Eav\\Setup\\EavSetup;\nuse Magento\\Eav\\Setup\\EavSetupFactory;\nuse Magento\\Framework\\Setup\\ModuleDataSetupInterface;\nuse Magento\\Framework\\Setup\\Patch\\DataPatchInterface;\n\nclass ProductAttribute implements DataPatchInterface\n{\n    \/** @var ModuleDataSetupInterface *\/\n    private $moduleDataSetup;\n\n    \/** @var EavSetupFactory *\/\n    private $eavSetupFactory;\n\n    \/**\n     * @param ModuleDataSetupInterface $moduleDataSetup\n     * @param EavSetupFactory $eavSetupFactory\n     *\/\n    public function __construct(\n        ModuleDataSetupInterface $moduleDataSetup,\n        EavSetupFactory $eavSetupFactory\n    ) {\n        $this->moduleDataSetup = $moduleDataSetup;\n        $this->eavSetupFactory = $eavSetupFactory;\n    }\n\n    \/**\n     * {@inheritdoc}\n     *\/\n    public function apply()\n    {\n        \/** @var EavSetup $eavSetup *\/\n        $eavSetup = $this->eavSetupFactory->create(['setup' => $this->moduleDataSetup]);\n\n        $eavSetup->addAttribute('catalog_product', 'custom-attribute', [\n            'type' => 'int',\n            'backend' => '',\n            'frontend' => '',\n            'label' => 'Custom Attribute',\n            'input' => 'select',\n            'class' => '',\n            'source' => 'Magento\\Eav\\Model\\Entity\\Attribute\\Source\\Boolean',\n            'global' => ScopedAttributeInterface::SCOPE_GLOBAL,\n            'visible' => true,\n            'required' => false,\n            'user_defined' => true,\n            'default' => 0,\n            'visible_on_front' => false,\n            'used_in_product_listing' => true,\n            'unique' => false,\n            'apply_to' => '',\n        ]);\n    }\n\n    \/**\n     * {@inheritdoc}\n     *\/\n    public static function getDependencies()\n    {\n        return [];\n    }\n\n    \/**\n     * {@inheritdoc}\n     *\/\n    public function getAliases()\n    {\n        return [];\n    }\n}\n\n<\/pre><\/div>\n\n\n
After this run php bin\/magento setup:upgrade command from magento2 cli<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Hope! It will help you<\/p>\n\n\n\n
