HierarchicalFacet2Find

Adds hierarchical faceting to EPiServer Find's .NET API

Build

In order to build HierarchicalFacet2Find the NuGet packages that it depends on must be restored. See http://docs.nuget.org/docs/workflows/using-nuget-without-committing-packages

Usage

Add a Hierarchy property to the document:

public class Document
{
    [Id]
    public string Id { get; set; }

    public Hierarchy Hierarchy { get; set; }
}

set the hierarchy path (sections separated by '/'):

document.Hierarchy = "A/B/C/D";

index and request a HierarchicalFacet when searching:

result = client.Search<Document>()
            .HierarchicalFacetFor(x => x.Hierarchy)
            .GetResult();

fetch it from the result:

facet = result.HierarchicalFacetFor(x => x.Hierarchy)

and loop over the nested hierarchy paths

foreach(var hierarchyPath in facet)
{
    hierarchyPath.Path;
    hierarchyPath.Count;
                
    foreach (var subHierarchyPath in hierarchyPath)
    {
        subHierarchyPath.Path;
        subHierarchyPath.Count;
        ...
    }
}
