Unique Product Content Types under an instance of Node Content

Hi,

My catalog contains a collection of node content pages and under any node could be a number of different implementations of a product content type.

When loading my category node, I'd like to run a query to return the unique product content types which are children of that node. For example when loading a page, if there are 100 of one product and only 2 of another type, i'd like my query to return the 2 unique types.

My site is using Find so maybe there's a clever option using that.

Has anyone had to do this before?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Johnny,

I think you can use Episerver Find facet to do this.

Example query:

 var query = SearchClient.Instance.Search<ProductContent>().Filter(x => x.ParentLink.Match(currentNodeContentLink.ToReferenceWithoutVersion().ToString())).Take(0).TermsFacetFor(x => x.ContentTypeName());

Hope this help

Hi Binh,

This query does the trick and works for multi level category hierarchies

            // use Find to execute search with the content type id set as a facet
            var result = SearchClient.Instance.Search<BaseProduct>()
                .Filter(x =>
                    x.Ancestors().Match(currentContent.ContentLink.ToReferenceWithoutVersion().ToString()))
                        .Take(0).TermsFacetFor(x => x.ContentTypeID.ToString()).GetContentResult();

            // extract the content type id's form the result
            var types = result.TermsFacetFor(x => x.ContentTypeID.ToString()).Terms;
