Woocommerce: get the shiping postal code to calculate shipping cost

2 Views

I’m developing a new shipping method that calculates the rate based on the package weight, volume and customers zip code…
Ive had no problem retrieving the cart information on the calculate_shipping function, but when I try to retrieve the zip code from customer it seems to return an empty value.
how can I retrieve this information on runtime in order to calculate the final cost? 

public function calculate_shipping( $package ) { 
    GLOBAL $woocommerce; 
    $items = $woocommerce->cart->get_cart(); 
    $cliente = $woocommerce->customer;  
    $peso = $woocommerce->cart->cart_contents_weight; 
    $customer_postcode = $woocommerce->customer->get_shipping_postcode(); 
}

Solved:

$customer_postcode = get_user_meta( get_current_user_id(), 'shipping_postcode', true );

  1. // add this in your calculate_shipping function
public function calculate_shipping( $package ) {
     //remove the first bracket at the end of $postal_code
     $postal_code = $package[ 'destination' ][ 'postcode' ];
}

  2. I think this is handled in the customer class

    billing post code


    WC()->customer->get_postcode();

    or

    shipping post code


    WC()->customer->get_shipping_postcode();

  4. global $woocommerce; 
$customer = new WC_customer();
$customer_id = $customer->ID

$get_customer_shipping_pincode = get_user_meta($customer_id,"shipping_postcode",true);
$get_customer_billing_pincode = get_user_meta($customer_id,"billing_postcode",true);

    if user is logged in(for register user),

    $get_customer_shipping_pincode = get_user_meta(get_current_user_id(),"shipping_postcode",true);
$get_customer_billing_pincode = get_user_meta(get_current_user_id(),"billing_postcode",true);
