Plugin does no longer work since Woocommerce 2.6 using new api endpoint "/wp-json/wc/v1"

Hi,

I lilke you plugin - its very usefull. After upgrading to woocommerce 2.6.x and switching to new Wordpress-WC-API endpoint /wp-json/wc/v1/ the plugin stopped working. After digging and debugging around for a while I've found out, that they have renamed the actions and they also missed to add one action which is needed by your plugin.

So the first change in your wc-api-custom-meta.php is to replace:

• woocommerce_api_product_response => woocommerce_rest_prepare_product
• woocommerce_api_processproduct => woocommerce_rest_processproduct
• woocommerce_api_save_product_variation => woocommerce_rest_save_product_variation

As for the missing do_action call: Please compare:

• Line 1723 form v2.5.5 https://github.com/woothemes/woocommerce/blob/2.5.5/includes/api/class-wc-api-products.php
• Line 1287 from v2.6.3 https://github.com/woothemes/woocommerce/blob/2.6.3/includes/api/class-wc-rest-products-controller.php

So, what I did, is to patch woocommerce as follows:

--- /public/wp-content/plugins/woocommerce/includes/api/class-wc-rest-products-controller.php   Di Jun 14 22:40:48 2016
+++ /public/wp-content/plugins/woocommerce/includes/api/class-wc-rest-products-controller.php   Di Jun 14 22:44:49 2016
@@ -1270,6 +1270,9 @@ class WC_REST_Products_Controller extends WC_REST_
            }
        }

+       // Do action for product type => needed for des-wc-api-custom-meta to save custom meta data via rest api
+       do_action( 'woocommerce_rest_process_product_meta_' . $product_type, $product, $request );
+
        return true;
    }

Now everything is working again.

I'm not sure what is the best way to update your plugin, as the calls depend on the api version used. On the woocommerce side it would be great if the would readd the action, but as far as I've read, the are not very happy with updating meta through api anyway, so that I'm not sure if the will add the missing action. But why not try at least, I've just filed an issue about this case, see https://github.com/woothemes/woocommerce/issues/11495

Kind regards Andreas

Hi, @adoerler thanx for the fix.

@judgej are you going to update the plugin in the future or ?

Kindly regards,

Pascal

At some point, yes. Other projects seem to take over and time flies though :-(

If there is a fix I can apply to this plugin, I'll get it pushed through quickly.
