    Media Service

    I am using media service to try and get all media items and folders, This is proving extremely difficult.

    Has anyone ever done this on umbraco v7. There seems to be countless posts on this with no replyies so is this a taboo or something??

    Thanks

    Hi Alex,

    I am using media service to try and get all media items and folders.

    I want to get all items from within the folders too.

    This is what I have so far..

     var allItems = Services.MediaService.GetRootMedia();         

        foreach (var item in allItems)
        {
            if (allItems.)
            {

            }
        }

    I currently get all items under media and folders.

    What I am now trying to do is get into the folders and get the items within there too

    Thanks

    You need something like :

    var allItems = ApplicationContext.Services.MediaService.GetRootMedia();

foreach (var item in allItems)
{
    foreach (var descendant in item.Descendants())
    {

    }
}

    Hi Alex,

    I have tried that but get an error that Umbraco.Core.Models.Imedia does not contain definition for Descendants :-(

        var allItems = ApplicationContext.Services.MediaService.GetRootMedia();

    foreach (var item in allItems)
    {
        foreach (var descendant in item.Descendants())
        {
            <text>@descendant.Name</text>
        }
    }

    Worked for me, what version of Umbraco are you using?

    Cheers, Alex
