Magento 2 CustomerSession Extension Free

In Magento 2, we can't get customer session from \Magento\Customer\Model\Session when varnish cache is enable so we use \Magento\Framework\App\Http\Context instead. But by default, \Magento\Framework\App\Http\Context only gives the value of customer_group and customer_logged_in. CustomerSession extension free by Magepow allows you to get more than just customer_group and customer_logged_in is customer id, name, email and other customer attributes if set.

How to install Magento 2 CustomerSession extension Free

✓ Install Magepow CustomerSession via composer (recommend)

Run the following command in Magento 2 root folder:

composer require magepow/customersession
php bin/magento setup:upgrade
php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy -f
