    Api - Examine results

    Hi

    I'm trying to make an api that returns a list ( json ) of the result of an examine search. This doesn't work. It says it can't serialize PublishedSearchResult.

    Any ideas - or maybe a different and better way to approach it?

    public class SearchController : UmbracoApiController
{
    [HttpGet]
    public IEnumerable<PublishedSearchResult> GetResults(string term)
    {
        var result = Umbraco.ContentQuery.Search(term);

        return result;
    }


}

    Ulrik,

    That wont work, you need to maybe create your own pocos and transform your results to list of those pocos and return those.

    Regards

    Thanks Ismail

    That works :) 

    [HttpGet]
    public JsonResult<List<Node>> GetResults(string term)
    {
        var result = Umbraco.ContentQuery.Search(term);
        List<Node> nodes = new List<Node>();

        foreach(var item in result)
        {
            nodes.Add(new Node
            {
                Name = item.Content.Name
            });
        }

        return Json( nodes);
    }


}

public class Node
{
    public string Name { get; set; }
}
