You can use the helper functions listed below when developing templates for use with the Akeneo connector.

Please note that some functions are only compatible with certain template types.

$getProductValue

Returns the product's value for a given attribute name and locale. If the field doesn't have a locale, it will return the value without locale.

Input

1. A locale string
2. The field name

Examples

$getProductValue("fr_FR", "color")
=> "bleu"

$getProductValue("en_US", "color")
=> "blue"

/* 
* Uses the locale value dynamically.
* Great when templates are reused across indexes.
*/
$getProductValue(external.__connection.locale, "color")
=> "bleu" /* when the connector is running with fr_FR */
=> "blue" /* when the connector is running with en_US */
