The content link.
Returns
Type Description
System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable<Association>

GetChildren<T>(ContentReference)

Declaration
public IEnumerable<T> GetChildren<T>(ContentReference parentLink)
    where T : Relation
Parameters
Type Name Description
EPiServer.Core.ContentReference parentLink
Returns
Type Description
System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable<T>
Type Parameters
Name Description
T

GetParents<T>(ContentReference)

Declaration
public IEnumerable<T> GetParents<T>(ContentReference childLink)
    where T : Relation
Parameters
Type Name Description
EPiServer.Core.ContentReference childLink
Returns
Type Description
System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable<T>
Type Parameters
Name Description
T

GetRelationsBySource(ContentReference)

Gets the relations with Source matching the specified content link. Depending on what content type the specified content link points to this will return instances of one or more of the following relation types: ProductVariation where Target is a product variation. BundleEntry or PackageEntry where Target is a bundle/package entry. NodeRelation where Target is a (parent) category.

Declaration
public IEnumerable<Relation> GetRelationsBySource(ContentReference contentLink)
Parameters
Type Name Description
EPiServer.Core.ContentReference contentLink

The source content link to match.
Returns
Type Description
System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable<Relation>

The matching relations.

GetRelationsBySource<T>(ContentReference)

Gets the relations with Source matching the specified content link. Depending on what content type the specified content link points to this will return instances of one or more of the following relation types: ProductVariation where Target is a product variation. BundleEntry or PackageEntry where Target is a bundle/package entry. NodeRelation where Target is a (parent) category.

Declaration
public IEnumerable<T> GetRelationsBySource<T>(ContentReference contentLink)
    where T : Relation
Parameters
Type Name Description
EPiServer.Core.ContentReference contentLink

The source content link to match.
Returns
Type Description
System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable<T>

The matching relations.
Type Parameters
Name Description
T

The type of relation to filter by, e.g. return only ProductVariation instances.

GetRelationsByTarget(ContentReference)

Gets the relations with Target matching the speified content link. Depending on what content type the specified content link points to this will return instances of one or more of the following relation types: ProductVariation where Source is the parent product of the variation. BundleEntry or PackageEntry where Source is a bundle/package containing the entry. NodeRelation where Source is an entry or (sub) category in the specified category. However, that information is probably simpler to retrieve by using EPiServer.IContentLoaders GetChildren method.

Declaration
public IEnumerable<Relation> GetRelationsByTarget(ContentReference contentLink)
Parameters
Type Name Description
EPiServer.Core.ContentReference contentLink

The target content link to match.
Returns
Type Description

BundleEntry or PackageEntry where Source is a bundle/package containing the entry. NodeRelation where Source is an entry or (sub) category in the specified category. However, that information is probably simpler to retrieve by using EPiServer.IContentLoaders GetChildren method.

Declaration
public IEnumerable<T> GetRelationsByTarget<T>(ContentReference contentLink)
    where T : Relation
Parameters
