man, I was hoping for some luck on this.. I am in the exact same situation.. Tried dequeueing the scripts enqueue mine but cant seem to get it right.. Especially with the add-to-cart-variation.min.js
Anyone know of anything? I am also trying to write a plugin that will over ride the variable.php file and add-to-cart-variation.min.js file in woocommerce..
What sort of modifications have you made to the file?

As samueljeden stated, what are you trying to do? Because it may not be necessary to modify it as it comes with many triggers you can already use.
In addition, dequeueing and enqueueing does work for this.
I am just trying to dequeue their script and enqueue my own but I cannot seem to get it working.. I got the variable.php issue worked out
Here is what I have in my plugin
function register_woo_radio_button_scripts () {
wp_dequeue_script('wc-add-to-cart-variation');
// Register the script like this for a theme:
wp_register_script( 'wc-add-to-cart-variation', plugins_url( 'woo-radio-buttons/woocommerce/js/add-to-cart-variation.min.js', __FILE__ ), array( 'jquery'), false, true );
wp_enqueue_script('wc-add-to-cart');
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_script', 'register_woo_radio_button_scripts' );
But that neither dequeues their script or picks up on mine when I view the source.

Well for one thing your code is not correct. your enqueue script is calling “wc-add-to-cart” but your register script is called “wc-add-to-cart-variation”.
And second, you need to use wp_deregister_script()… So wp_deregister_script(‘wc-add-to-cart-variation’);
Ya I for some reason didnt even think of deregister script, thanks for that. I did catch the name thing just after posting my last one. I still cant seem to get either of them to work though.
here is updated:
function register_woo_radio_button_scripts () {
wp_deregister_script('wc-add-to-cart-variation');
wp_dequeue_script('wc-add-to-cart-variation');
wp_register_script( 'wc-add-to-cart-variation', plugins_url( 'woocommerce/assests/js/frontend/add-to-cart-variation.min.js', __FILE__ ), array( 'jquery'), false, true );
wp_enqueue_script('wc-add-to-cart-variation');
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_script', 'register_woo_radio_button_scripts' );
is that correct?
Nevermind, I solved it.. Thanks for the help
Thanks for the updates.
Rather than create a plugin, I actually did this via my child theme. Now that I’ve had more experience with modifying files via triggers/filters, I find this to be a better way.
In my child theme, I create a /childthemedir/js directory and placed my version of the javascript (a copy of the original with some minor modifications).
Then, in my /childtheme/functions.php file, I did this:
wp_deregister_script('wc-add-to-cart-variation');
wp_register_script( 'wc-add-to-cart-variation', $cust_child_theme_dir.'/js/add-to-cart-variation.min.js', array( 'jquery' ), $wp_version, true );
I had read somewhere that a plugin was the preferred method of modifying core js (or other plugin js files), but I think this is cleaner as it keeps all of my customizations in one place.
I hope this helps someone else in the future who searches the forums.

Could you please share your solution DesignLoud?
I’m in the same boat.
Unfortunately for me, budThornhill’s solution isn’t working for me either.
