Get the product variations skus from a variable product in WooCommerce

I am trying to get an array of skus from variable products in woocommerce. Each variation has its own sku, and I have also set an overall sku for the product that encompasses all variations (in the inventory tab)



So for simple products this code works:



global $product;
$product_sku = $product->get_sku();


But when I am working with a variable product, it returns the sku listed in the Inventory tab, rather than any skus for the variations. So what would be a good way to get those variation skus in an array?



Here is some psuedo code for how I am thinking about the process



$inventory_sku = 'sku1';
$variation_skus = get_skus_by_inv_sku($inventory_sku);
echo $variation_skus[0];


Thanks in advance!

          The shortest and lightest way is to use WPDB Class to make an SQL query embedded in a function:



          function get_variations_skus( $product_id ){
          global $wpdb;

          return $wpdb->get_col("
          SELECT pm.meta_value
          FROM {$wpdb->prefix}postmeta as pm
          INNER JOIN {$wpdb->prefix}posts as p ON p.ID = pm.post_id
          WHERE p.post_type = 'product_variation'
          AND p.post_status = 'publish'
          AND p.post_parent = $product_id
          AND pm.meta_key = '_sku'
          AND pm.meta_value != ''
          ");
          }


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



          USAGE - In a variable product:



          global $product;

          // Variable product main sku
          $sku = $product->get_sku();

          // The variations skus for this variable product (in an array)
          $variations_skus = get_variations_skus( $product->get_id() );

          // Testing output variations skus: Array to string conversion (coma separated skus)
          echo sizeof($variations_skus) > 0 ? implode( ', ', $variations_skus ) : 'No skus';
