Wordpress. Woocommerce. Action hook BEFORE adding to cart

Question

What i need to do: I want to run some checks on a product before being added to the cart. More exactly: I want to compare the product i am about to

Answer 1

A bit late, but I think you are looking for add to cart validation, which is filterable. Here's an over simplified version:

function so_validate_add_cart_item( $passed, $product_id, $quantity, $variation_id = '', $variations= '' ) {

    // do your validation, if not met switch $passed to false
    if ( 1 != 2 ){
        $passed = false;
        wc_add_notice( __( 'You can not do that', 'textdomain' ), 'error' );
    }
    return $passed;

}
add_filter( 'woocommerce_add_to_cart_validation', 'so_validate_add_cart_item', 10, 5 );
