How to Redirect to the login page based on certain condition in shopware 6 ?

Shopware 6 is a powerful e-commerce platform that provides a wide range of features and customization options. One such customization option is the ability to redirect to the login page based on certain conditions.

To redirect to the login page based on a certain condition in Shopware 6, you will need to create a new service in your plugin and extend the AbstractPlugin class. In this service, you can add a new method that checks the condition and redirects to the login page if necessary.

Often we get the requirement from customers that certain products should be visible only to logged-in users. Let’s see how we can solve this problem. We can implement this with simple lines of code in subscribers.

Step-by-Step Guide

To implement the redirection in Shopware 6, follow these steps:

This is the code to redirect to the home page from the subscribed event

/**
 * $redirectUrl = $this->router->generate('frontend.account.login.page');
     $response = new RedirectResponse($redirectUrl, 301);
     $event->setResponse($response);
     return;
 */

This code will return the login page URL

/**
 * $this->router->generate('frontend.home.page');
 */

This code will set the event response as a redirect to the login page.

/**
 * $response = new RedirectResponse($redirectUrl, 301);
     $event->setResponse($response);
 */

The complete code is here below,

/**
 * use Symfony\Component\HttpKernel\KernelEvents;
 
.....
.....
 
/*Registering subscribed events here*/
 
public static function getSubscribedEvents(): array
   	{
       	return [
           		KernelEvents::EXCEPTION => 'accessDeniedRedirectProduct'
       	];
}
public function accessDeniedRedirectProduct(ExceptionEvent $event)
   	{
       	if($this->isLoginRequiredProduct()) // condition
       	{
          $request = $event->getRequest();
          $redirectParameter = $request->attributes->get('_route_params'); 
                $url = $this->router->generate('frontend.account.login.page', 301);
          $redirectResponse = new RedirectResponse($redirectUrl);
               $event->setResponse($redirectResponse);
            }
       return;
   }

 */
