Create a Woocommerce product widget with category filter

I'd like to create a WooCommerce products widget like the standard WooCommerce products widget, but with the option to filter on category. I know there is a shortcode for displaying products of a certain category, but I don't like the standard thumbnail view, but like to have a list like in the WooCom products widget.

On Github, I have found the following code which allows to add a WooCom products widget with a filter on product ID:

<?php
/*
Plugin Name: Woocommerce Custom Widget Product
Description: This plugin help display a list of customs products on your website
Author: Binh Nguyen
Version: 1.0
Author URI: http://vietcomic.net/
*/


if ( ! defined( 'ABSPATH' ) ) exit; // Exit if accessed directly

class Bi_Widget_Product extends WP_Widget
{

    function __construct()
    {
        parent::__construct(
                'woocommerce_ndbProducts',
                __( 'WP Customs Products', 'ndb' ),
                array('description' => __( 'This plugin help display a list of customs products on your website.', 'ndb' )) 
                );
    }

    public function widget( $args, $instance ) {

        extract( $args );
        $title = apply_filters( 'widget_title', $instance['title']);
        $ids   = $instance['ids'];
        $arr_id = explode(',',$ids);
        $query_args = array(
            'post_status'    => 'publish',
            'post_type'      => 'product',
            'no_found_rows'  => 1,
            'post__in'       => $arr_id
        ); 

        $r = new WP_Query( $query_args );
        if ( $r->have_posts() ) {

            echo $before_widget;

            if ( $title )
                echo $before_title . $title . $after_title;

            echo '<ul class="product_list_widget">';

            while ( $r->have_posts()) {
                $r->the_post();
                global $product;
                 ?>
                    <li>
                        <a href="<?php echo esc_url( get_permalink( $product->id ) ); ?>" title="<?php echo esc_attr( $product->get_title() ); ?>">
                            <?php echo $product->get_image(); ?>
                            <?php echo $product->get_title(); ?>
                        </a>
                        <?php if ( ! empty( $show_rating ) ) echo $product->get_rating_html(); ?>
                        <?php echo $product->get_price_html(); ?>
                    </li>
                <?php
            }

            echo '</ul>';

            echo $after_widget;
        }

        wp_reset_postdata();

        echo $content;

    }
    // Widget Backend

    public function form($instance){
        $title = (isset($instance['title'])) ? $instance['title'] : __( 'Products', 'ndb' );
        $ids = $instance['ids'];
        ?>
        <p>
            <label for="<?php echo $this->get_field_id('title'); ?>"><?php _e('Title :'); ?></label>
            <input class="widefat" id="<?php echo $this->get_field_id('title'); ?>"  name="<?php echo $this->get_field_name( 'title' ); ?>" type="text" value="<?php echo esc_attr( $title ); ?>" />
        </p>
        <p>
            <label for="<?php echo $this->get_field_id('ids'); ?>"><?php _e('IDs :'); ?></label>
            <input class="widefat" id="<?php echo $this->get_field_id('ids'); ?>"  name="<?php echo $this->get_field_name( 'ids' ); ?>" type="text" value="<?php echo esc_attr( $ids ); ?>" />
        </p>
        <?php

    }

    public function update( $new_instance, $old_instance ) {
        $instance = array();
        $instance['title'] = ( ! empty( $new_instance['title'] ) ) ? strip_tags( $new_instance['title'] ) : '';
        $instance['ids'] = ( ! empty( $new_instance['ids'] ) ) ? strip_tags( $new_instance['ids'] ) : '';
        return $instance;
    }


}



add_action( 'widgets_init', function(){
    register_widget( 'Bi_Widget_Product' );
} );

Can any of you Wordpress Guru's help me to adapt this so I can filter on category instead of product ID? I'll do an attempt myself, but definitely can use your help.

If you are looking for categories them you need to use get_terms() query e.g

 <?php
    $terms = get_terms( array ( 'taxonomy' => 'product_cat', 'hide_empty' => false, 'parent' => 0, 'orderby' => 'description', 'order' => 'ASC' ));

    foreach ($terms as $term) {
       echo $name = $term->name;
    }
?>

Solution 2:

<?php

//loop the names of the slugs for the country_categories
$terms = get_terms( array ( 'taxonomy' => 'country_categories', 'hide_empty' => false, 'parent' => 0, 'orderby' => 'date', 'order' => 'DESC' ));
foreach ($terms as $term) {
  //get category slug variables to use in your loop args
  $slug = $term->slug;

  $posts_args = array(
    'post_type'         => 'product',
    'posts_per_page'    => -1,
    'tax_query'         => array(
      'relation' => 'AND',
      array (
          'taxonomy' => 'product_cat',
          'field' => 'slug',
          'terms' => $slug,
      )
    ),
  );

  $posts_query = new WP_Query( $posts_args );
  if( $posts_query->have_posts() ):

    //Each div will have the particular category and its posts. The id and class will also have the slug name
    echo '<div id="' . $slug . '" class="' . $slug . '">
            <h1 class="text-center">' . $term->name . '</h1>
            while( $posts_query->have_posts() ): $posts_query->the_post();
              get_template_part( 'template-parts/content', get_post_format() );
            endwhile;
  echo '</div>';
  endif;
  }
  ?>
