To retrieve a large number of items, for example, to warm a local cache, export content or build a static web site, the SDK provides a IDeliveryItemsFeed to process items in a streaming fashion. With large environments, feed has several advantages over fetching all items in a single API call:
To fetch data from the start of the feed, you can use
// Process all strongly-typed content items in a streaming fashion.
IDeliveryItemsFeed<Article> feed = client.GetItemsFeed<Article>();
while(feed.HasMoreResults)
{
IDeliveryItemsFeedResponse<Article> response = await feed.FetchNextBatchAsync();
foreach(Article article in response) {
ProcessArticle(article);
}client.GetItemsFeed
}
You can also pass optional parameter continuationToken to method FetchNextBatchAsync. In that case, fetch from the feed will start from the position defined in this continuationToken instead of its start. This parameter has the same format and functionality as X-Continuation header value used for content item enumeration via Delivery REST API.
Both filtering and language selection are identical to the GetItems method, except for DepthParameter, LimitParameter, and SkipParameter parameters that are not supported.
// Process selected and projected content items in a streaming fashion.
IDeliveryItemsFeed<Brewer> feed = await client.GetItemsFeed<Brewer>(
new LanguageParameter("es-ES"),
new EqualsFilter("system.type", "brewer"),
new ElementsParameter("image", "price", "product_status", "processing"),
new OrderParameter("elements.product_name")
);
