Add custom fields that influence other Checkout fields

Customize Checkout

This topic describes how to add a custom field that influences other fields on the checkout page.

Let’s consider a case where you need to add a checkbox whose state (selected or cleared) changes the state of other fields: when the checkbox is selected, the Shipping Address fields get prepopulated with a certain address.

To implement such a checkbox, take the following steps:

  1. Create a plugin for the process method of the <Magento_Checkout_module_dir>/Block/Checkout/LayoutProcessor.php class.
  2. Declare the plugin in your module’s di.xml.
  3. Create a JS component for the checkbox with custom logic.

Step 1: Create a plugin for the LayoutProcessor’s process method

In your custom module directory, create the following new file: <your_module_dir>/Block/Checkout/SomeProcessor.php. In this file, add the following code sample. This is a plugin that adds a checkbox, makes the street labels trackable, and assigns dependencies to the checkbox.

For more information on creating plugins, see Plugins (Interceptors).

Step 2: Declare plugin in di.xml

In <your_module_dir>/etc/frontend/di.xml, declare the plugin you created on the previous step. The plugin name is arbitrary, in our example it’s ProcessAddressConfiguration:

<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
        xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:ObjectManager/etc/config.xsd">
    <type name="Magento\Checkout\Block\Checkout\LayoutProcessor">
        <plugin name="ProcessAddressConfiguration" type="Magento\Checkout\Block\Checkout\SomeProcessor"/>
    </type>
</config>

Step 3: Create a JS component for the checkbox

In your custom module directory, create the following new file: <your_module_dir>/view/frontend/web/js/single-checkbox.js. In this file, add the following code. This is a JS component that extends Magento_Ui/js/form/element/single-checkbox.js. The onCheckedChanged method calls the methods that update street labels, change the city and country values, and disable these fields:

    'Magento_Ui/js/form/element/single-checkbox',
    'mage/translate'
], function (AbstractField, $t) {
    'use strict';

    return AbstractField.extend({
        defaults: {
            streetLabels: [$t('Company / Section / Unit'), $t('Post Sector Type'), $t('Post Sector')],

        },

        updateStreetLabels: function () {
            if (this.value()) {
                this.street().elems.each(function (street, key) {
                    this.street().elems()[key].set('label', this.streetLabels[key]);
                }.bind(this));
            } else {
                this.street().elems.each(function (street, key) {
                    this.street().elems()[key].set('label', '');
                }.bind(this));
            }
        },

        updateCity: function () {
            if (this.value()) {
                this.city().value('Kyiv');
                this.city().disabled(true);
            } else {
                this.city().value('');
                this.city().disabled(false);
            }
        },

        updateCountry: function () {
            if (this.value()) {
                this.country().value('UA');
                this.country().disabled(true);
            } else {
                this.country().value('');
                this.country().disabled(false);
            }
        },

        onCheckedChanged: function () {
            this._super();
            this.updateStreetLabels();
            this.updateCity();
            this.updateCountry();
        }
    });
});

Step 4: Compile and deploy the static content

  1. Compile the code:

    1
    
    bin/magento setup:di:compile
    
  2. Deploy static content:

    bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy
