Hi,

Depends... what is productImage ? A property, an object (don't think this code will compile, don't see productImage defined somewhere?

If it's a property, which I'm assuming ,because you're using x.GetPropertyValue(), then it will still depend on how productImage property was defined? Either as upload or a media picker?

If the first, then

x.GetPropertyValue<string>("productImage") 

will already return path to the image, otherwise, you'd need to

Umbraco.TypedMedia(x.GetPropertyValue<string>("productImage") 

which returns a IPublishedContent, from where you can do .Url to get the path to the image

Or you have any idea on how I can get all the properties using their ids

public List<KeyValuePair<int, string>> ComparisonKeyValues(string ids)
{
    if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(ids))
    {
        var nodes = ids.Split(',').ToList().TypedContentList();
        return nodes.Select(x => new KeyValuePair<int, string>(x.Id, x.GetPropertyValue<string>("title"))).ToList();
    }
    return new List<KeyValuePair<int, string>>();
}

I want to get also the productImage property.

Any help for this, I'm stuck on this problem.

Thanks in advance,

Jin

Hi,

if you want to use the current format of KeyValuePair<>, you'd have to extend the second generic type to accept multiple values, so would be something along the lines of

List<KeyValuePair<int, Dictionary<string, string>>>

which I believe is a bit overkill, why not create a specific class holding three properties and return as

List<Data>()

Example:

public class Data {
  int Id {get;set;}
  string Title {get;set;}
  string ProductImageUrl {get;set;}
}

and return a

public List<Data> ComparisonKeyValues(string ids) {}

from your method

Overkill = list of keyvaluepair where value is again a dictionary, bit too complex for what you'd need (and doesn't make it easier to read)

return nodes.Select(x => new Compares { Id = x.Id, Title = x.GetPropertyValue<string>("title"), ProductImageUrl = ... });

Okay..

Is still got an error

return nodes.Select(x => new Compares { Id = x.Id, Title = x.GetPropertyValue<string>("title"), Url = x.GetPropertyValue<string>("productImage") });

Cannot implicity convert type 'System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable

Thanks,

Marky

Because nodes.Select returns IEnumerable

Oh,

How can I rid of this? Any alternative way?

Sorry for my noob question, I really new in C# & Umbraco :(

Hi Dirk

I've got the correct code, thanks for your help.

Here what I've done.

public List<Compares> CompareValues(string ids)
{
    var result = new List<Compares>();

    if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(ids))
    {
        string[] listOdIds = ids.Split(new char[] { ',' });

        foreach (var id in listOdIds)
        {
            var page = Umbraco.TypedContent(id);
            var imageUrl = Umbraco.TypedMedia(page.GetPropertyValue<string>("image")).Url;

            var comparess = new Compares()
            {
                Id = Convert.ToInt32(id),
                Title = page.GetPropertyValue<string>("title"),
                Url = imageUrl
            };

            result.Add(comparess);
        }
        return result;
    }
    return result;
}

Thanks,
