V8: Unable to get all content of a certain type using GetPagedOfType()

[hartviglarsen]

I was playing around with getting all content of a certain type. In V7 the ContentService had GetContentOfContentType(), however that does not exist in V8. Therefore I decided to try and be creative with GetPagedOfType(). Unfortunately the collection returned does not contain any items.

Reproduction

var productTypeId = Product.GetModelContentType().Id;
var products = _contentService.GetPagedOfType(productTypeId, 1, 9999, out var size, null);

Expected result

I expect that products contains a collection of products (if there are any) and that size contains the amount of records.

Actual result

While size does show the correct amount of records, the collection does not contain any products.

It's because you are passing in 1 for the pageIndex parameter. Being an index it is zero based. So you are asking for page #2 by passing in 1 and you only have 2 records.

pass in 0 for the page index and it should work

Could have been nice to just request using something like
var products = _contentService.GetPagedOfType(productTypeId, PagingInfo.AllItems, out var size, null);
