I am trying to add product in cart with cart item meta data. Here is the code :

$cart_item_data = array();

$cart_item_data['add_size'] = array('PR CODE'=>'1.0');

print_r(WC()->cart->add_to_cart( $product_id ,1,  0,array(), $cart_item_data ));

It's adding product in cart but it's not showing up in order or in cart.

Can any help me out?

To display and save custom meta data added to cart in cart, checkout and orders when using:

WC()->cart->add_to_cart( $product_id ,1,  0,array(), array('add_size' => array('PR CODE'=>'1.0') );

You will use the following code:

// Display custom cart item meta data (in cart and checkout)
add_filter( 'woocommerce_get_item_data', 'display_cart_item_custom_meta_data', 10, 2 );
function display_cart_item_custom_meta_data( $item_data, $cart_item ) {
    $meta_key = 'PR CODE';
    if ( isset($cart_item['add_size']) && isset($cart_item['add_size'][$meta_key]) ) {
        $item_data[] = array(
            'key'       => $meta_key,
            'value'     => $cart_item['add_size'][$meta_key],
        );
    }
    return $item_data;
}

// Save cart item custom meta as order item meta data and display it everywhere on orders and email notifications.
add_action( 'woocommerce_checkout_create_order_line_item', 'save_cart_item_custom_meta_as_order_item_meta', 10, 4 );
function save_cart_item_custom_meta_as_order_item_meta( $item, $cart_item_key, $values, $order ) {
    $meta_key = 'PR CODE';
    if ( isset($values['add_size']) && isset($values['add_size'][$meta_key]) ) {
        $item->update_meta_data( $meta_key, $values['add_size'][$meta_key] );
    }
}

Code goes in function.php file of your active child theme (or active theme). Tested and works.

After I spent the last hours figuring things out I found out that the method has actually changed a bit over the time.

Method:

$woocommerce->cart->add_to_cart( $product_id, $quantity, $variation_id, $variation, $cart_item_data );

In my case I needed to do this and the custom meta data got automatically displayed in the cart and order:

$woocommerce->cart->add_to_cart($product_id, $quantity, NULL, NULL, array('your_key' => 'your_value'));

You can add the product to the cart using the following code:

WC()->cart->add_to_cart( $product_id, $quantity, $variation_id, $variation );
