Interface IValueConnector

Defines methods that can convert a property value to and from an environment-agnostic string.

Namespace: Umbraco.Cms.Core.Deploy

Assembly: Umbraco.Core.dll

Syntax

public interface IValueConnector

Remarks

Property values may contain values such as content identifiers, that would be local to one environment and need to be converted in order to be deployed. Connectors also deal with serializing and deserializing the content value to an environment-agnostic string.
