dw.catalog.ProductSearchHit
ProductSearchHit is the result of a executed search query and wraps the actual product found by the search. The method getRepresentedProducts() returns the actual products that is conforming the query and is represented by the search hit. Depending on the hit typ, getRepresentedProducts() returns: The ProductSearchHit type can be retrieved by method getHitType() and contains the following types: The method getProduct() returns the presentation product corresponding to the ProductSearchHit type. Example: Given a product master P1 called "Sweater" with attributes color and size that has the following variants:
  • V1 - color: red, size: small
  • V2 - color: red, size: large
  • V3 - color: blue, size: small
  • V4 - color: blue, size: large
  • V5 - color: yellow, size: small
  • V6 - color: yellow, size: large
A search for "red sweater" should hit the first two variants, V1 and V2 that are both red. The ProductSearchHit for this result encompass the master and the red variants but not the other non-relevant variants. The variants hit by the query can be retrieved by getRepresentedProducts(), returning a list that contains the two red sweater variants. The master product "Sweater" is returned by getProduct(). Furthermore, to get the first or last of that list of variants hit by the query we can call getFirstRepresentedProduct() or getLastRepresentedProduct(). The product with the highest sort rank is returned first, and the product with the lowest sort rank is returned last. The product sort rank depends on the sorting conditions used for the search query.
