Glassmapper 5 GetItem in language version

Question

I need to extract an item with Glassmapper in specific language. But in Glassmapper 5 this method is marked as "Obsolete":

 _sitecoreService.GetItem<IAvailableCountries>
                (Models.Constants.Items.CountryTagFolder, LanguageManager.GetLanguage("en"));

But I don`t see any overloaded version of GetItem where I can pass language as parameter.

What is the best practice to do it with Glassmapper 5?

Answer 1

You should use now either GetItemByIdOptions or GetItemByPathOptions (or other options) and pass language there, e.g.:

var options = new GetItemByIdOptions(guid) { Language = language };
var item = sitecoreService.GetItem<IAvailableCountries>(options);
