Product Variants

Product Variants

A product variant is a different version of a product, such as differing sizes or differing colors. Without product variants, you would have to treat the small, medium and large versions of a t-shirt as three separate products; product variants let you treat the small, medium and large versions of a t-shirt as variations of the same product.

Creating a Product with a variant in one go

 var product = new Product()
 {
     Title = "Test Product Walter",
     Vendor = "Burton",
     BodyHtml = "<strong>Good snowboard!</strong>",
     ProductType = "Snowboard",
     Images = images,
     //Make sure to give your product the correct variant option
     Options = new List<ProductOption>
     {
         new ProductOption
         {
             Name = "Color"
         }
     },
     //And then create a collection of variants or assign the "Variants" property
     //to an already defined collection.
     Variants = new List<ProductVariant>
     {
         new ProductVariant
         {
             Option1 = "Black",
         },
         new ProductVariant
         {
             Option1 = "Green",
         },
     }
 };
