I have searched in Magento 2 developer documentation and also googled about the new Magento 2 GET URL method but haven't found something clear that explain how to get url path in new platform.

So I open up this post to complete with your help the missing commands and help also other user searching for the same argument.

The Magento 1 Platform

GET PRODUCT URL <?php echo $this->helper('catalog/product')->getProductUrl($_product); ?> GET ATTRIBUTE <?php echo $_product->getData('manufacturer'); ?> <?php echo $_product->getSku(); ?> GET PRODUCT NAME <?php echo $_product->getName(); ?> GET DESCRIPTION <?php echo strip_tags($_product->getDescription()); ?> GET KEYWORDS <?php echo htmlspecialchars($this->getKeywords()) ?> GET PRODUCT IMAGE <?php echo $this->helper('catalog/image')->init($_product, 'image')->resize(300, 300); ?>

The Magento 2 Platform

GET BASE URL This is the only reference I have found <?php echo $block->getBaseUrl(); ?>

if I try all other Magento 1 parameters to get the URL/ATTRIBUTE/NAME etc. Magento 2 crash.

Get product url from Helper

In your template, we can call directly (however, should be injected in our Block)

$this->helper->('Magento\Catalog\Helper\Product')->getProductUrl($product);

Get Product attributes in product listing

vendor/magento/module-catalog/view/frontend/templates/product/list.phtml

/** * Product list template * * @var $block \Magento\Catalog\Block\Product\ListProduct */ $_productNameStripped = $block->stripTags($_product->getName(), null, true); $_helper = $this->helper('Magento\Catalog\Helper\Output'); $_helper->productAttribute($_product, $_product->getManufacturer(), 'manufacturer'); $_helper->productAttribute($_product, $_product->getName(), 'name'); $_helper->productAttribute($_product, $_product->getDescription(), 'description') $productImage = $block->getImage($_product, $image); echo $productImage->toHtml();

Product Image helper

Magento 2 - Keep Product Image Aspect Ratio

//$image = 'category_page_grid' or 'category_page_list'; $_imagehelper = $this->helper('Magento\Catalog\Helper\Image'); $productImage = $_imagehelper->init($_product, $image)->constrainOnly(FALSE)->keepAspectRatio(TRUE)->keepFrame(FALSE)->resize(400)->getUrl();

Note: some Helpers help us to get the product url easily, however, for the best practise, they should be injected in the constructor of our Blocks.
