Hi,

I am looking into the possibility of renaming some images that have been assigned to a product in episerver commerce.

As I see it the only way that I can achieve would I would like to do is.

Get the original image.
Duplicate the original image by creating a new instance and setting all the properties.
Set the filename.
Save the image.
Associate the image to the product.
Remove / delete the original image.

Seems alot of work to rename a filename.

Has anyone tried anything similar?

Thanks

Paul

The image is associated with the product by its content guid, which is permanent. What you can do is probably this (pseudo untested code)

var contentLink = product.CommerceMediaCollection.First().AssetLink;

var media = contentRepository.Get<MediaData>(contentLink);

media.Name = "Can I actually do this";

contentRepository.Save(media, SaveAction.Publish, AccessLevel.None);

This is pretty close. You'll also want to update the RouteSegment value to show the updated name in the image url, and before you do anything create a writeable clone as the object returned by the repository will be read only. So something like;

var contentLink = product.CommerceMediaCollection.First().AssetLink;

var media = contentRepository.Get<MediaData>(contentLink);

var mediaClone = (ImageData)media.CreateWritableClone()

mediaClone.Name = "Can I actually do this";

mediaClone.RouteSegment = "Can I also do this"

contentRepository.Save(mediaClone, SaveAction.Publish, AccessLevel.None);
