Add Event Categories to Description in Stripe Transaction

I’m using this snippet that I found in the forum for adding a custom field to the Stripe Transaction Description.

I get the event name and the “| category: ” in the transaction as expected….but I can’t figure out how to get the Event Categories at this point in the transaction.
(see this line: $event_cat = WHAT DO I USE HERE TO GET CATEGORIES; below)


add_filter(
'FHEE__EEG_Stripe_Onsite__doDirectPaymentWithPaymentIntents__payment_intent_data',
'stripe_elements_cf_order_desc', 10, 4
);
function stripe_elements_cf_order_desc(
$stripe_data,
$payment,
$transaction,
$billing_info
) {
if ($transaction instanceof EEI_Transaction) {
$primary_registrant = $transaction->primary_registration();
if ($primary_registrant instanceof EE_Registration) {
$event = $primary_registrant->event_obj();
if ($event instanceof EEI_Event) {
$desc = $event->name();
$event_cat = WHAT DO I USE HERE TO GET CATEGORIES;
$desc .= ' | category: ' . $event_cat;
$stripe_data['description'] = $desc;
}
}
}
return $stripe_data;
}

If you want just a single category (the first EE finds on the event):

$event_cat = '';
$category = $event->first_event_category();
if ($category instanceof EE_Term) {
    $event_cat = $category->name();
}

If you have multiple categories on the events you can use $event->get_all_event_categories(); which will return an array of EE_Terms for you to loop over.

Thanks Tony, this works great for what we’re after.
On a related note, is there a way to include the Categories in the Registration export? I know I can filter by them and then export the filtered results, but the client would like everything in one sheet with a column for the Categories.
(let me know if this needs to be a new forum post)
Thanks

We have a snippet in our code snippet library that should do the above for you in:

https://github.com/eventespresso/ee-code-snippet-library/blob/master/admin/registration-reports/core/tw_ee_include_event_categories_in_csv.php

You can add that to a custom functions plugin on the site and we have some documentation on creating one here:
