The LocalLayer Widget for ArcGIS Web AppBuilder is intended to allow the direct addition of ArcGIS for Server Mapservices to be added directly to an ArcGIS Web AppBuilder application, without needing to wrap the desired services in an ArcGIS Online/Portal Web Map.

LocalLayerWidget 1.0

The LocalLayer Widget for ArcGIS Web AppBuilder is intended to allow the direct addition of ArcGIS for Server Mapservices to be added directly to an ArcGIS Web AppBuilder application, without needing to wrap the desired services in an ArcGIS Online/Portal Web Map.

Under the Settings option in the Builder, add a JSON array containing the names and URLs of the MapServices that you want included in your Application.

Example:

	[
		{
			"name": "Parks",
			"url":"http://serverName/arcgis/rest/services/Parks/MapServer"
		},{
			"name": "Public Libraries",
			"url": "http://serverName/arcgis/rest/services/Libraries/MapServer"
		}
	]

Specify proxy settings if necessary by checking the "Use Proxy?" box, and specify 1) The domain name for which the proxy should be applied (ie. your in the example below), and 2) The URL of the proxy.ashx page itself.

Please note that this is not an in-panel widget. To add it to your ArcGIS Web AppBuilder, add the widget to your \client\stemapp\widgets directory, and add a reference to the widget in the standard default2Dapp configuration located at \client\builder\predefined-apps\default2DApp\config.json, under the widgetOnScreen section.

Example:

	"widgetOnScreen": {
		"widgets": [{
			{
				"uri": "widgets/LocalLayerWidget/Widget"
      		},
      	...
      	]}
	}

IMPORTANT: A minor change will need to be made to your \client\stemapp\jimu.js\LayerInfos\LayerInfoForMapService.js file to make this tool operational. Line 433 should be changed from:

var url = this.originOperLayer.url + '/' + subId;

To:

var url = this.originOperLayer.layerObject.url + '/' + subId;

The LayerList and AttributeTable widgets should continue to work with your local layers. The current click-to-identify functionality in the Web App Builder is driven by ArcGIS Online and Portal, so it won't currently work with this tool, unfortunately. Maybe an advanced identify widget can be created by some enterprising developers in the future!
