Methods
_hideLoadingImg
()
private
Hides the loading image.
_initEventHandlers
-
map
Creates event handlers for the map control: click, mouse-over, load, extent change, and update events.
Parameters:
-
mapObjectA ESRI map object
_initListeners
-
map
Subscribe to external events (published using topic.publish) and react accordingly
Parameters:
-
mapObjectmap object
_initRepublishers
-
map
Republishes map events to the outside using topic.publish
Parameters:
-
mapObjectobject
_showLoadingImg
()
private
Shows the loading image.
activate
()
private
Activates the Tool. This method is passed to the initToggle method and is triggered by the BaseTool logic.
AddStaticLayer
-
layer_type -
layer_url -
layer_op
Add a static, non-interactive Layer to the map
checkBoundary
-
e -
maxExtent
Given an ESRI Extent Object, returns a new ESRI Extent Object that contains the extent adjusted according to this map's maximum extent
NOTE: this method is currently unused!
Parameters:
-
eEsri/geometry/Extentthe extent Object
-
maxExtentEsri/geometry/Extentthe maximum extent
Returns:
An adjusted extent, if the target extent is outside the boundary
clearMap
()
private
Clears the map. This method is passed to the initToggle method as the defaultAction
to be triggered by the BaseTool logic when the float-default-button is clicked.
computeBuffer
-
evtObj
Compute the buffer of a specified polygon.
Parameters:
-
evtObjObjectan object representing the
draw-endevent.
createExtent
-
extentConfig -
sr
Instantiates an extent from a JSON config object and spatial reference
Parameters:
-
extentConfigObjectthe JSON config object
-
srEsri/SpatialReference
Returns:
An ESRI extent object based on the config data
deactivate
()
private
Deactivates the Tool. This method is passed to the initToggle method and is triggered by the BaseTool logic.
displayOutput
()
private
Displays the tool's output by calling BaseTool's displayOutput function.
displayTemplateOutput
-
templateData -
[templateName]
Generates output to be injected into the tool's float given a template's name and data object.
Parameters:
Returns:
this tool
getFeatureLayer
-
featureUrl
Return the feature layer corresponding to the given url.
Parameters:
-
featureUrlStringthe url of the feature layer
Returns:
feature layer
getVisibleFeatureLayers
()
Array
Returns a list of feature layers that are currently visible on the map.
Returns:
an array of Esri/layer/FeatureLayer objects
init
()
chainable
Initialize the buffer tool
initToggle
-
selector -
d -
[options]
Initializes the tool and sets up popup to handle activating/deactivating of the tool. Tools should call this function on init,
unless they employ a different workflow and then need to handle all function activation/deactivation/working themselves.
Parameters:
-
selectorJObjecta target selector that serves as a toggle for the tool
-
dJObjecta Deferred object to be resolved after tool initiates
-
[options]Object optionalAdditional options
-
[target]JObject optionalTarget where the tool's float should be appended to
-
[outputFloatTemplate]String optionalTemplate name to generate the float container with
-
[outputFloatData]Object optionalData payload to be passed to the template engine when generate the float container
-
[workingLabelTemplate]String optionalTemplate name to generate the
busylabel -
[workingLabelData]Object optionalData payload to be passed to the template engine when generate the
busylabel -
[activate]Function optionalan activate function to be called when the toggle is clicked
-
[deactivate]Function optionala deactivate function to be called when the toggle is clicked
-
[defaultAction]Function optionalFunction to be executed when the
float-default-buttonis clicked
-
Returns:
this tool
newPopup
-
popupAttr
Create a new PopupBase object from the settings provided.
Parameters:
-
popupAttrPopupBaseSettingsPopup settings
Returns:
popup
outputBuffer
-
bufferedGeometries
Display the buffered polygon on the map.
Parameters:
-
bufferedGeometriesObjectresult of the geoprocessor.
setBoundingBoxVisibility
-
layerId
Sets the visibility of the bounding box that belongs to the layer with the given layerId. Note: the layerId needs to be the ID of the featurelayer, not the ID of the actual bounding box layer.
Parameters:
-
layerIdStringthe id of the layer whose bounding box visibility should be set
ui.init
()
private
Initiates additional UI components of the Tool.
working
-
state
Sets the tool into a specified state; if the tool is working, a working label is placed beside the cursor and injected into the tool output float.
Parameters:
-
stateBooleanindicates the state of the tool: working, idle
Returns:
This tool
Properties
boundingBoxLayers
Array of esri/layer/GraphicsLayer
A list GraphicsLayer that represent the extent bounding box of the feature layers. {[esr/layer/featurelayers]} featureLayers A list of feature layers found in the application config {[esri/layer/graphiclayer]} An array of graphic layers to add to the map
