When we need to use product and current_product from Registry?

Question

In Magento2, if we want the current category detail then we can retrieve it from Registry as below:

$currentCategory = $this->_registry->registry('current_category');

For Getting current product detail, then we can retrieve it from Registry as below:

$currentProduct = $this->_registry->registry('product');

OR

$currentProduct = $this->_registry->registry('current_product');

So which one we should use or which one that Magento recommends for getting Current Product? why?

Thanks...

Take a look:

\Magento\Catalog\Helper\Product::initProduct()

 // Register current data and dispatch final events $this->_coreRegistry->register('current_product', $product); $this->_coreRegistry->register('product', $product);

As we can see, Magento registers two variables. That why we can get by current_product and product variables. Seem that Magento wants to give us "more ways" to get the current product data in block, event,... via Registry.

\Magento\Catalog\Controller\Adminhtml\Category\Widget\CategoriesJson::execute()

 $this->_coreRegistry->register('category', $category); $this->_coreRegistry->register('current_category', $category);

Hello @Khoa, Thanks alot for your quick response. I am agreed in the case of getting current Product. But for getting current category specially on Frontend, we should only use: $currentCategory = $this->_registry->registry('current_category'); — Nilesh Tighare
