Magento2: Configurable product on wishlist shows parent image instead variation image

[anebi]

Preconditions

1. Magento 2.1.3
2. PHP7
3. MySQL 5.7.16

Steps to reproduce

1. Create product from Configurable type with default image
2. Assign products to this Configurable with let's say color and size attributes. Let the associated products have different images
3. Go to that configurable product on frontend, select configurations and add the product to wishlist.
4. Go to wishlist in my account and you will notice that wishlist displays images of parent product instead of the product that represent selected configurations

Expected result

1. Wishlist should display variation product image instead of parent
2. Currently this is done for checkout page and cart and we are able to select from backend if we want parent or child product image to be displayed

I have the same issue, if you add different variations they will be listed separately in whishlist but the image is wrong, it represents configurable product rather than specific variation

If someone is interesting to a workaround, I suggest creating a plugin for
MagentoWishlistBlockCustomerWishlistItemColumnImage
and write something like:

public function aroundGetImage(
        Image $subject,
        \Closure $proceed,
        Product $product,
        $imageId,
        $attributes
    ) {
        if ($product->getTypeId() == 'configurable') 
        {
            $simpleProduct = $this->productRepository->get($product->getSku());
            $url = $this->config->getBaseMediaUrl() . $simpleProduct->getImage();
            $block = $proceed($product, $imageId, $attributes);
            $block->setImageUrl($url);
            return $block;
        }
        return $proceed($product, $imageId, $attributes);
    }

Note that this fix is different on 2.3. Wishlist should obey cart image setting from config. Fix will be backported to 2.2 future releases
