How can I create and add all possible combinations for a product at once?

[prak]

Hello, I want to create all possible combinations of a product at once, programmatically. I can see this function addAttributeCombinationMultiple in the product.php class to add them to the product but I do not know how to create all the possible combinations.

 

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

You should add your products by csv import (with Prestashop native import function, or other tool like the Presta Store Manager). With StoreManager you can add products AND combinations at once. With Prestashop native import function, only in steps.

Thanks for the reply selectshop.at but I want to accomplish this programmatically through my module. I want to create a controller which will generate all possible combinations for a product, instead of generating them one by one like the default product combination generator. Is there no way to do this?

well, you can get all combinations by using cartesian product between your attributes. Be aware that this may produce very big dataset, depending on cardinality of your attributes.
