Namespace: EPiServer.Web

Assembly: EPiServer.dll

Version: 12.0.3

Syntax

public static class SiteDefinitionResolverExtensions : Object

Methods

GetByContent(ISiteDefinitionResolver, ContentReference, Boolean, Boolean)

Gets the SiteDefinition for a content reference.

Declaration

public static SiteDefinition GetByContent(this ISiteDefinitionResolver siteDefinitionResolver, ContentReference contentLink, bool fallbackToWildcard, bool fallbackToEmpty)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
ISiteDefinitionResolver	siteDefinitionResolver	The site definition resolver that is being extended
ContentReference	contentLink	The content link.
System.Boolean	fallbackToWildcard	if set to `true` and if content link is not under any site, use SiteDefinition mapped with Wildcard.
System.Boolean	fallbackToEmpty	if set to `true` and if content link is not under any site, and not fallback to Wildcard use system default (StartPage and SiteUrl is not defined).

Returns

Type	Description
SiteDefinition	A SiteDefinition instance for the site that `contentLink` belongs to.

Remarks

This is done by traversing the page tree upwards from current link until a Page that matches a StartPage for a registered SiteDefinition.

If the contentLink is not located beneath a start page, the search will fall back to the SiteDefinition instance for the site mapped with * as host fallbackToWildcard is set to True. If the contentLink is not located beneath a start page, and if not fallen back to wildcard and fallbackToEmpty is set to true then the system default setting will be returned which has for example RootPage set but not site specific settings like StartPage and SiteUrl.

GetByHostname(ISiteDefinitionResolver, String, Boolean)

Gets the SiteDefinition that has a host that matches specified hostname.

Parameters

ISiteDefinitionResolver	siteDefinitionResolver	The site definition resolver that is being extended
System.String	hostname	Name of the host.
System.Boolean	fallbackToWildcard	if set to `true` then site matched with wildcard (if any) is returned
