Woocommerce API - Create Order With Float Quantity

Question

Unfortunately, in my store all of the product quantities are in float. I used the below code to accept float value as a quantity in my website.

// Removes the WooCommerce filter, that is validating the quantity to be an int
remove_filter('woocommerce_stock_amount', 'intval');

// Add a filter, that validates the quantity to be a float
add_filter('woocommerce_stock_amount', 'floatval');

But, when I trying to create a order using API from my mobile app is not accepting the float value.

$woocommerce->post('orders', $getData);

anybody help me, how can I create a order using woocommerce api to accept float quantities.

Unfortunately, you can't achieve this with the latest API version. You can try any of the solution given below but NOT recommended.

Solution 1: Use Legacy API.

Solution 2: Directly change 'type' => integer to 'type' => float (around 1190) in 'woocommerce/includes/api/class-wc-rest-orders-controller.php' which is responsible for the quantity (but note that you need to change every time you upgrade the plugin).

'quantity'     => array(
    'description' => __( 'Quantity ordered.', 'woocommerce' ),
    'type'        => 'float', // change here
    'context'     => array( 'view', 'edit' ),
),
