Introduction

A library of tools for working with Umbraco Ditto and Umbraco Archetype. It primarily contains a set of Ditto processors used to decorate classes and properties and assist with Ditto mapping operations related to Archetype data.

Refer to the generated documentation for more details.

Installation

Install with NuGet. Search for "Rhythm.Umbraco.Ditto.Archetype".

Overview

Ditto Processors

Here are the available Ditto processors:

• DittoArchetypeAttribute Allows for mapping of Archetype properties.
• DittoMixedArchetypeAttribute Combines the DittoArchetype and DocTypeFactory processors, which is useful when implementing widgets with Archetype. This allows for each Archetype fieldset to map to a different C# class.

The following code sample shows how to use both DittoMixedArchetypeAttribute:

namespace Sample
{
    using Our.Umbraco.Ditto;
    using Rhythm.Umbraco.Ditto.Archetype;
    using System.Collections.Generic;
    public class PageModel
    {
        // First, get the value of the Archetype property.
        [UmbracoProperty(Order = 0)]
        // Then, convert that Archetype model into a collection of widgets.
        [DittoMixedArchetype(Order = 1)]
        public IEnumerable<IWidget> MainContent { get; set; }
    }
}

Note that by convention the "Attribute" suffix is omitted when the attribute is used. Also be aware that there is no IWidget interface (the above code is for demonstration purposes only).
