Using Umbraco.ContentType(id) in C# Custom Class

Using Umbraco 7

Hi guys,

I am trying to do this

var umbracoHelper = new Umbraco.Web.UmbracoHelper(Umbraco.Web.UmbracoContext.Current);
string id = e.Fields["id"].ToString();
var parent = umbracoHelper.TypedContent(id);

on my custom class. My aim is to load the parent Name into my indexer.

But it's not working. My examine indexer stopped working after this...

I am using the following extension:

using Examine;
using System;
using System.Text;
using umbraco.BusinessLogic;
using umbraco.providers.members;
using Umbraco.Core;
using Umbraco.Web;

I also tried var currentItem = Umbraco.TypedContent(e.NodeId);

It doesnt work. Can someone help me?

Hi Thomas,

Can you post the error message that you're seeing? Also the TypedContent() method takes an int, not a string, so you could try that?

Thanks,

Maff

if i understand you correctly, you're trying to get the parent name of the node being indexed?

Try:

via the content service (database, so slower)

private void GatheringNodeDataHandler_YourEventName(object sender, IndexingNodeDataEventArgs e)
{
     var currentItem  = ApplicationContext.Current.Services.ContentService.GetById(e.NodeId);
     e.Fields.Add("ParentName", currentItem.Parent.Name);
}

*xml cache, with a hacky way to get the current context - works, but is it ok?*

private static UmbracoHelper Helper
{
    get
    {
        var context = new HttpContext(new HttpRequest("", "http://mysite.local/", ""), new HttpResponse(null));
        UmbracoContext.EnsureContext(new HttpContextWrapper(context), ApplicationContext.Current);
        return new UmbracoHelper(UmbracoContext.Current);
    }
}

private void GatheringNodeDataHandler_YourEventName(object sender, IndexingNodeDataEventArgs e)
{
     var currentItem = Helper.TypedContent(e.NodeId);
     e.Fields.Add("ParentName", currentItem.Parent.Name);
}

xml cache, as you've tried, but last time i tried, context was null as it's not available on the indexing thread (see: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/umbraco-dev/-xto6IIPXrA)

private void GatheringNodeDataHandler_YourEventName(object sender, IndexingNodeDataEventArgs e)
{
     var helper = new UmbracoHelper(UmbracoContext.Current);
     var currentItem = helper.TypedContent(e.NodeId);
     e.Fields.Add("ParentName", currentItem.Parent.Name);
}
