ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript template

Prerequisites

  • Node.js 16.0+

The template comes set up with Prettier for formatting. Take a look at their editor integration docs to integrate it into your development environment.

Run project locally

To start:

npm install
npm run dev

Then open your browser at http://localhost:3000/

Create productive build

npm run build

The dist folder then contains all the files for the web app which can either be copied to a web server or pushed to the gh-pages branch to be served at https://arnofiva.github.io/arcgis-core-template.

In order to use the gh-pages approach, see the following instructions. Make sure you remove an existing dist folder if it has been created from a previous build.

Deploy to GitHub Pages

Create gh-pages branch

You can skip this part if you used the template by copying all branches, which includs the gh-pages branch that is part of this project.

If you only copied the main branch, follow these steps to create an orphan gh-pages branch (meaning it does not share any history with main):

rm -rf dist
git checkout --orphan gh-pages
git rm -rf .
git commit --allow-empty -m "Init empty branch"
git push origin gh-pages

Return to main branch:

git checkout main

Checkout gh-pages branch in dist/ folder

The following will create a dist folder (fails if it already exists) and make it point to the root of the gh-pages branch:

git worktree add dist gh-pages

Deploy new version on gh-pages branch

Once the previous steps have been completed, you can repeat the following every time you want to deploy a new version of your local code:

npm run build
cd dist/
git add .
git commit -am 'Deploy latest version'
git push origin gh-pages
cd ../
