    How to get a media by url without hitting the database?

    Hello... I need to correct a middleware that checks a media property for each request. It's currenlty working but it tells me that the method I use is obsolete and will be removed on next version (14) of Umbraco.

    I should obtain a media by its url but without hitting the db. Can you help me?

    I currently use this code

    IPublishedMediaCache? mediaCache = umbracoContextReference.UmbracoContext.Media;

    var foundMedia = mediaCache.GetSingleByXPath($"//umbracoFile[contains(., '{context.Request.Path}')]");

    Thank you so much

    You could probably just get all descendants with umbracohelper and filter them with LINQ. Something like:

    var matchingMedia = _uh.MediaAtRoot().SelectMany(x => x.DescendantsOrSelf()).FirstOrDefault(x => x.Value<string>("umbracoFile").Contains("request-path-here"));

    And tweak it a bit to ignore case etc
