Magento2 Get Customer Custom session Data in Javascript file

Question

I am trying to get the custom session data of Customer in a javascript file. As I am passing 'Magento_Customer/js/customer-data' as dependency in order to retrieve the data.

define(
[
 ......
 'Magento_Customer/js/customer-data'
 .....
],
function (Component,customerData) {
 'use strict';
 return Component.extend({
 defaults: {
 template: 'Mymodule_Company/myTemplate'
 },
 initialize : function(){
 this._super(customerData.getData());
 console.log(customerData.getCustomerInfo());
 }
 });
}
);

I want to get a custom variable just like i set up in my php file :

$this->customerSession->setMyCustomValue("my custom variable");

• Adarsh Khatri: Did you mange to get it work?

Answer 1

It depends on what you want, if you want like the cart section you could use it in the following way:

customerData.get('cart')();

You could add custom data to the customer data and then retrieve it with like:

customerData.get('sectionData');
