Projections on nested classes
Hi,
Yes, but currently only for IEnumerable. You could either change your property to be of type IEnumerable<> instead of List<> or simply do a projection to 'Platforms' and issue the .FirstOrDefault() outside of the projection (as FirstOrDefault() is executed client side this causes no overhead as the entire Platform list is transfered anyway).
The best solution is to avoid the transfer altogether and simply extend game with a 'DefaultPlatform'-extension for game:
public static class GameExtensions
{
public static Platform DefaultPlatform(this Game game)
{
return game.Platforms.FirstOrDefault();
}
}
Index the extension:
client.Conventions.ForInstancesOf<Game>().IncludeField(x => x.DefaultPlatform());
Use 'DefaultPlatform in the projection:
searchQuery.Select(x => new
{
Name = x.Name,
Variant = x.DefaultPlatform()
});

Hi,
Is it possible with EPiServer Find projections on nested classes?
e.g. the following gets indexed:
When the line below is executed I get an exception (see end of message)
var projection = searchQuery.Select(x => new
{
Name = x.Name,
Variant = x.Platforms.FirstOrDefault()
});
Thanks
Danie
