I am consuming a ArcGis services to create a, let's call it, "Simple WebGis".
At one part I want to take all FeatureLayers and create a table of contents with checkboxes to switch the layer visibility on and off. As a result all layers are displayed as text but the checkboxes are missing and I don't get a javascript error indicating where my fault is located.
This is the code in question:
var map;
var tocLayers = [];
require([
"esri/map", "esri/layers/FeatureLayer", "esri/dijit/Legend",
"dojo/_base/array", "dojo/parser", "dojo/dom", "dojo/dom-construct",
"dijit/layout/BorderContainer", "dijit/layout/ContentPane",
"dijit/layout/AccordionContainer", "dojo/domReady!", "dijit/form/CheckBox"
], function (
Map, FeatureLayer, Legend,
arrayUtils, parser, dom, construct, CheckBox
) {
parser.parse();
window.infoTemplate = new esri.InfoTemplate("Attributes", "${*}");
map = new Map("map", {
basemap: "topo",
center: [8.7, 50.0],
zoom: 10
});
//defining layers here - omitted
tocLayers.push({ layer: noll, title: 'Layer1' });
tocLayers.push({ layer: eins, title: 'Layer2' });
tocLayers.push({ layer: zwei, title: 'Layer3' });
tocLayers.push({ layer: drei, title: 'Layer4' });
tocLayers.push({ layer: vier, title: 'Layer5' });
tocLayers.push({ layer: fuenf, title: 'Layer6' });
tocLayers.push({ layer: sechs, title: 'Layer7' });
tocLayers.push({ layer: sieb, title: 'Layer8' });
//add the legend - omitted
//add check boxes
map.on('layers-add-result', function (results) {
arrayUtils.forEach(tocLayers, function (layer) {
var layerName = layer.title; console.log(layer.title);
var checkBox = new CheckBox({
name: "checkBox" + layer.layer.id,
value: layer.layer.id,
checked: layer.layer.visible,
onChange: function (evt) {
var clayer = map.getLayer(this.value);
clayer.setVisibility(!clayer.visible);
this.checked = clayer.visible;
}
});
//add the check box and label to the toc
construct.place(checkBox.domNode, dom.byId("toggle"), "after");
var checkLabel = construct.create('label', { 'for': checkBox.name, innerHTML: layerName }, checkBox.domNode, "after");
construct.place("<br />", checkLabel, "after");
});
});
map.addLayers([noll, eins, zwei, drei, vier, fuenf, sechs, sieb]);
});
Related markup:
<div data-dojo-type="dijit.layout.ContentPane" data-dojo-props="title:'Table of Contents'">
<span style="padding:10px 0;">LayerVisibility</span>
<div id="toggle" style="padding: 2px 2px;"></div>
Upon looking at the rendered markup is see this:
<div class="dijitBorderContainer dijitContainer" id="dijit_layout_BorderContainer_2" widgetid="dijit_layout_BorderContainer_2" style="padding: 0px;"></div>
<label for="checkBoxgraphicsLayer3">Layer3</label>
It is not possible for me to give provide you with a fiddle, since the data which is being consumed is password protected. Hopefully I just messed up my code at some point.
Question/problem: Why are the checkboxes not displayed in the markup, but the titles of the layers and how can I fix this?
The error was located at the beginning in my require()
function.
Original:
require(["esri/map", "esri/layers/FeatureLayer", "esri/dijit/Legend",
"dojo/_base/array", "dojo/parser", "dojo/dom", "dojo/dom-construct",
"dijit/layout/BorderContainer", "dijit/layout/ContentPane",
"dijit/layout/AccordionContainer", "dojo/domReady!", "dijit/form/CheckBox"
], function (
Map, FeatureLayer, Legend,
arrayUtils, parser, dom, construct, CheckBox
) {
//...
})
After removing all the fideling I moved in, while trying fit the requirements it looked like this:
require(["esri/map", "esri/layers/FeatureLayer", "esri/dijit/Legend",
"dojo/_base/array", "dojo/parser", "dojo/dom", "dojo/dom-construct",
"dijit/form/CheckBox","dojo/domReady!"
], function (
Map, FeatureLayer, Legend,
arrayUtils, parser, dom, construct, CheckBox
) {
//...
})
And the checkboxes are rendered flawlessly.
