I am building a category/Keyword hierarchy xml file on publishing a page. And I don't want to loop through the categories and keywords to avoid performance issue.

So, I am using Repository.GetTaxonomiesOwl() in TOM.NET for a repository to get the Taxonomies data in OWL format. and applying xslt on this to get the xml.

Repository.GetTaxonomiesOwl() returns all the taxonomies (Local + Shared) for that Repository and doesn't have any info about taxonomy owning repository.

The returned element for a keyword looks like below: Level1 - Test Keyword1 Level1 - Test Keyword1 false true

My requirement is to get only local taxonomies for the repository.

My questions are, is there any way to :

  1. Filter the taxonomy results, which are local to the repository(Publication)?
  2. Include owning repository attribute in the results? so that I can filter the results based on that attribute.

  • Hi Saurabh - can you share the filter and the response?

  • Don't you see a node formatted something like: tcmt:isRoot

  • Yeah Mark, But the tcmt:isRoot specifies if the keyword is a root keyword in the keyword hierarchy within a category, as a keyword can have keywords as children. It doesn't say anything about the owning repository of the keyword.

  • TaxonomiesOwl is quite heavy filter is the any reason why you don't use Repository.GetListTaxonomies(TaxonomiesFilter filter) or Repository.GetTaxonomies(TaxonomiesFilter filter)?

  • I want to fetch one xml from tridion, which contains categories and keywords. So that i can apply a xslt to produce another xml file. Repository.GetListTaxonomies(TaxonomiesFilter filter) returns only categories. So I am not using it.

You can do what you want using a two-step process:

  1. Select all local Categories in a given Repository (e.g. using Repository.GetListCategories() and a bit of LINQ to filter out local ones).
  2. Call Repository.GetTaxonomiesOwl(TaxonomiesOwlFilter) overload to pass in a TaxonomiesOwlFilter with property RootCategories set to the Categories you selected in step 1.

  • Thanks for the answer Rick. But I need localize info for both categories and keywords(inside the categories) as well and it seems GetTaxonomiesOwl doesn't return that info.
