I want to make a selection of pages based on their tags, here named topicTags and locationTags, and a "lookup" word that the editor enters.
Currently the result is case sensitive, i.e. when I look for "test" I get pages with the tag "test" but not "Test" or "TEST".
I guess transforming everything to lower case is the way forward.
The "lookup" word entered by the editor @myTag is transformed to @myLowercaseTag using ToLower(). Easy enough.
But I can't seem to get the correct syntax to transform the arrays of tags.
I have this
.Where(x => x.Value<string[]>("topicTags").Contains(@myLowercaseTag) || x.Value<string[]>("locationTags").Contains(@myLowercaseTag))
Suggestions how to transform the topicTags and locationTags arrays to lower case will be much appreciated.
Thanks Jesper
you could try
x.Value<string[]>("topicTags").Select(s => s.ToLowerInvariant()).ToArray().Contains(@myLowercaseTag)
Thank you very much, Huw. This actually works.
I will go study a bit to understand how the .Select(s => s.ToLowerInvariant()).ToArray() string works.
Best wishes Jesper
you are basically just creating a new array from your existing array by selecting each element s => s and lowercasing it
s => s
