Today we discussed how in Magento 2 create product programmatically. This tutorial includes the process of creating a simple product, set image to product and set quantity to product. So lets start with creating a simple product. We can do this in two ways- one is creating product with factory method and other is creating product with object manager.

Create Product with Factory Method

protected $_product;

public function __construct(

\Magento\Catalog\Model\ProductFactory $_product

) {

$this->_productloader = $_productloader;

}
public function createProduct()
{

$_product = $this->_productloader->create();
$_product->setName('First Test Product');
$_product->setTypeId('simple');
$_product->setAttributeSetId(4);
$_product->setSku('test-SKU');
$_product->setWebsiteIds(array(1));
$_product->setVisibility(4);
$_product->setPrice(400);
$_product->setImage('/simpeproduct/test.jpg');
$_product->setSmallImage('/simpeproduct/test.jpg');
$_product->setThumbnail('/simpeproduct/test.jpg');
$_product->setStockData(array(
'use_config_manage_stock' => 0, //'Use config settings' checkbox
'manage_stock' => 1, //manage stock
'min_sale_qty' => 1, //Minimum Qty Allowed in Shopping Cart
'max_sale_qty' => 2, //Maximum Qty Allowed in Shopping Cart
'is_in_stock' => 1, //Stock Availability
'qty' => 1000 //qty
)
);

$_product->save();
echo $_product->getId();
}

Update Product with factory method

protected $_product;

public function __construct(

\Magento\Catalog\Model\ProductFactory $_product

) {

$this->_productloader = $_productloader;

}
public function updateProduct()
{

$_product = $this->_productloader->create()->load(2047);
$_product->setName('First Test Product Updated');
$_product->save();
}

Create Product with Object manager

<?php
$objectManager = \Magento\Framework\App\ObjectManager::getInstance();
$_product = $objectManager->create('Magento\Catalog\Model\Product');
$_product->setName('First Test Product');
$_product->setTypeId('simple');
$_product->setAttributeSetId(4);
$_product->setSku('test-SKU');
$_product->setWebsiteIds(array(1));
$_product->setVisibility(4);
$_product->setPrice(400);
$_product->setImage('/simpeproduct/test.jpg');
$_product->setSmallImage('/simpeproduct/test.jpg');
$_product->setThumbnail('/simpeproduct/test.jpg');
$_product->setStockData(array(
'use_config_manage_stock' => 0, //'Use config settings' checkbox
'manage_stock' => 1, //manage stock
'min_sale_qty' => 1, //Minimum Qty Allowed in Shopping Cart
'max_sale_qty' => 2, //Maximum Qty Allowed in Shopping Cart
'is_in_stock' => 1, //Stock Availability
'qty' => 1000 //qty
)
);

$_product->save();
echo $_product->getId();

Update Product with Object manager

Now our custom product is created. Now we will update product. So doing with following example just.

$_product = $objectManager->create('Magento\Catalog\Model\Product')->load(2047);
$_product->setName('First Test Product Updated');
$_product->save(); ?>
