    Referencing UmbracoHelper

    Is it still possible to reference UmbracoHelper in Umbraco 8 with something like the following (this is Umbraco 7 code):

    var umbracoHelper = new Umbraco.Web.UmbracoHelper(Umbraco.Web.UmbracoContext.Current);

    I've checked over the docs the best that I can, and I haven't run across anything yet. Where I need it is in 3-4 places I can't inject it into.

    Thanks in advance

    I think you can also use

    var umbracoHelper = Umbraco.Web.Composing.Current.UmbracoHelper;

    This is the best way to access it if you need the UmbracoHelper, but it also depends on what you are doing. It could be better to get access to individual services that provide the underlying functionality.
