How to access Umbraco Current Node
public class CommentSurfaceController : SurfaceController
{
private readonly IUmbracoApplicationContext context;
public CommentSurfaceController(IUmbracoApplicationContext context)
{
this.context = context;
}
}
Implementation surface controller
I have search for which I want to implement autocomplete.
My json result will be based on AutoCompleteSearchResult:
public class AutoCompleteSearchResult
{
public string value { get; set; }
public string data { get; set; }
}
My controller
public class SearchController: SurfaceController
{
public JsonResult Index(RenderModel model)
{
var result = new List<AutoCompleteSearchResult>();
result.Add(new AutoCompleteSearchResult(){data = "1", value = "test1"});
result.Add(new AutoCompleteSearchResult(){data = "2", value = "test2"});
result.Add(new AutoCompleteSearchResult(){data = "3", value = "test3"});
return new JsonResult(){Data = result, JsonRequestBehavior = JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet};
}
}
If you are using surface controllers your link has to have prefix:
umbraco/surface/
Access the action on url
http://yourserver/umbraco/surface/Search/index/
Binding tip
If you are binding RenderMvcController to controller make sure that
DataType and Controller name are the same
SearchPage , SearchPageController
Load data using uQuery
umbraco.NodeFactory.Node node = uQuery.GetNodesByName("Page Name")
.Where(n => n.NodeTypeAlias == "NodeTypeAlias").FirstOrDefault();
if (node != null)
{
//...
}
GetNodesByType(string or int):
umbraco.NodeFactory.Node node = uQuery.GetNodesByType("NodeTypeAlias")
.Where(n => n.Name == "Page Name").FirstOrDefault();
if (node != null)
{
//...
}
