In this post I am going to explain how to get the attribute information from attribute code in magento 2.

1. Using Dependency Injection

Add below code snippet in Block class.

protected $_entityAttribute;
protected $_attributeOptionCollection;

public function __construct(
	\Magento\Backend\Block\Template\Context $context,
	\Magento\Eav\Model\Entity\Attribute $entityAttribute,
	\Magento\Eav\Model\ResourceModel\Entity\Attribute\Option\Collection $attributeOptionCollection,
	array $data = []
) 
{
	$this->_entityAttribute = $entityAttribute;
	$this->_attributeOptionCollection = $attributeOptionCollection;
	parent::__construct($context, $data);
}

public function getAttributeData($entityType, $attributeCode) 
{
	$attributeData = $this->_entityAttribute
				->loadByCode($entityType, $attributeCode);
	return $attributeData;
}

public function getAttributeOptions($attributeId) 
{
	$attributeOptions = $this->_attributeOptionCollection
				->setPositionOrder('asc')
				->setAttributeFilter($attributeId)
				->setStoreFilter()
				->load();
	return $attributeOptions;
}

 

Add below code snippet in template file.

//attribute code
$attributeCode = 'manufacturer';
//entity type
$entityType = 'catalog_product';

$attributeData = $block->getAttributeData($entityType, $attributeCode);

echo "<pre>";
print_r($attributeData->getData());
echo "</pre>";

// get attribute id
$attributeId = $attributeData->getAttributeId();
// get attribute name

echo $attributeData->getFrontendLabel();

// get attribute default value
echo $attributeData->getDefaultValue();

//get attribute options
$attributeOptions = $block->getAttributeOptions($attributeId);

echo "<pre>";
print_r($attributeOptions->getData());
echo "</pre>";

foreach ($attributeOptions as $option) {
    echo $option->getOptionId() . "<br>";
    echo $option->getValue() . "<br>";
}

 

2. Using Object Manager

//attribute code
$attributeCode = 'manufacturer';
//entity type
$entityType = 'catalog_product';

$objectManager = \Magento\Framework\App\ObjectManager::getInstance();

$attributeData = $objectManager->get(\Magento\Eav\Model\Entity\Attribute::class)
        ->loadByCode($entityType, $attributeCode);

echo "<pre>";
print_r($attributeData->getData());
echo "</pre>";

// get attribute id
$attributeId = $attributeData->getAttributeId();

// get attribute name
echo $attributeData->getFrontendLabel();

//get attribute default value
echo $attributeData->getDefaultValue();

//get attribute options
$attributeOptions = $objectManager->get(\Magento\Eav\Model\ResourceModel\Entity\Attribute\Option\Collection::class)
        ->setPositionOrder('asc')
        ->setAttributeFilter($attributeId)
        ->setStoreFilter()
        ->load();

echo "<pre>";
print_r($attributeOptions->getData());
echo "</pre>";

foreach ($attributeOptions as $option) {
    echo $option->getOptionId() . "<br>";
    echo $option->getValue() . "<br>";
}

Thats it. Enjoy Magento 2!!

Thank you.
