StreamLayerView

Class: esri/views/layers/StreamLayerView
Inheritance: StreamLayerViewLayerViewAccessor
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.4

Represents the LayerView of a StreamLayer after it has been added to a Map in either a MapView or SceneView.

The StreamLayerView is responsible for rendering a StreamLayer's features as graphics in the View. The methods in the StreamLayerView provide developers with the ability to query and highlight graphics in the view. See the code snippets in the methods below for examples of how to access client-side graphics from the view.

It connects to a server that emits geographic features continuously. The stream layer is suitable when you would like to map dynamic streams of data that are unbounded and continuous. When a StreamLayer is added to a map, users are able to see any real-time updates pushed out by the server. For more information, read the documentation of StreamLayer.

Property Details

connectionError

Property
connectionError Errorreadonly

The error that explains an unsuccessful attempt to connect to the stream service or an unexpected disconnection from the stream service.

connectionStatus

Property
connectionStatus Stringreadonly

The status of the Web Socket connection with the stream service. This property can be watched to see if the connection is lost unexpectedly.

Release specific changes:

  • At version 4.29, connect() and disconnect() methods were added. Consequently, invoking the disconnect() method following a pause will transition the connection status from paused to disconnected. Subsequent use of the connect() method will then change the connection status to connected.
  • At version 4.26, the connectionStatus can be paused if the pause() method is called or if the layer becomes suspended.

Possible Values:"connected" |"disconnected" |"paused"

declaredClass

Inherited
Property
declaredClass Stringreadonly
Inherited from Accessor
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.7 Accessor since 4.0, declaredClass added at 4.7.

The name of the class. The declared class name is formatted as esri.folder.className.

featureEffect

Property
featureEffect FeatureEffect |null |undefinedautocast
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.22 StreamLayerView since 4.4, featureEffect added at 4.22.

The featureEffect can be used to draw attention features of interest. It allows for the selection of features via a filter, and an includedEffect and excludedEffect are applied to those features that respectively pass or fail the filter requirements.

If the featureEffect is set on the layer, it will be inherited by layerView.featureEffect unless the developer overrides it on the layerView. The layerView.featureEffect will take precedence over layer.featureEffect if both properties are set.

Known Limitations

Examples
// gray out features that fall outside of the 3 mile buffer of the mouse's location
// by setting feature effect on excluded features
layerView.featureEffect = new FeatureEffect({
  filter: new FeatureFilter({
    geometry: filterGeometry,
    spatialRelationship: "intersects",
    distance: 3,
    units: "miles"
  }),
  excludedEffect: "grayscale(100%) opacity(30%)"
});
// Apply a drop-shadow feature effect to the features that intersect the borough boundaries,
// while applying blur and brightness effects to the features that are excluded from filter criteria.
// The resulting map will make it easier to spot if the residents are more likely to experience deprivation
// if they live on a borough boundary.
const featureFilter = new FeatureFilter({
  where: "BoroughEdge='true'"
});
layerView.featureEffect = new FeatureEffect({
  filter: featureFilter,
  includedEffect: "drop-shadow(3px, 3px, 3px, black)",
  excludedEffect: "blur(1px) brightness(65%)"
});

filter

Property
filter FeatureFilterautocast
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.11 StreamLayerView since 4.4, filter added at 4.11.

The attribute, geometry, and time extent filter. Only the features that satisfy the filter are displayed on the view.

Example
// display earthquakes that have
// magnitude value of 3 or higher
layerView.filter = new FeatureFilter({
  where: "mag >= 3",
});

highlightOptions

Property
highlightOptions HighlightOptions
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.26 StreamLayerView since 4.4, highlightOptions added at 4.26.

Options for configuring the highlight. Use the highlight() method on the layer view to highlight a feature. The layerView's highlightOptions will take precedence over the view's highlightOptions if both properties are set.

Known Limitations

  • The highlightOptions on layer views are only supported in 2D MapView.
Example
// Features in the layerview will be highlighted with bright
// yellow colors in the map.
const layerView = await view.whenLayerView(layer);
layerView.highlightOptions = {
  color: [255, 255, 0, 1],
  haloOpacity: 0.9,
  fillOpacity: 0.2
};

updating

Inherited
Property
updating Booleanreadonly
Inherited from LayerView

Indicates if the layer view is making any updates that will impact what is displayed on the map. For example, this value is true when renderer, definitionExpression, filter or effect is changed or if the layer view is in the process of the fetching data.

Watch dataUpdating property instead to only know when the data has been updated (e.g. to run statistics query on all feature available in the layer view).

Default Value:false
Example
// Check for the first time layerView.updating becomes false. Then query for
// features that are visible within the view associated with the layer view.
await reactiveUtils.whenOnce(() => !layerView.updating);
const query = layerView.createQuery();
query.geometry = layerView.view.extent;
const result = layerView.queryFeatures(query);

Inherited from LayerView
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.6 LayerView since 4.0, when added at 4.6.

when() may be leveraged once an instance of the class is created. This method takes two input parameters: a callback function and an errback function. The callback executes when the instance of the class loads. The errback executes if the instance of the class fails to load.

Parameters
callback Function
optional

The function to call when the promise resolves.

errback Function
optional

The function to execute when the promise fails.

Returns
Type Description
Promise Returns a new promise for the result of callback that may be used to chain additional functions.
Example
// Although this example uses MapView, any class instance that is a promise may use when() in the same way
let view = new MapView();
view.when(function(){
  // This function will execute once the promise is resolved
}, function(error){
  // This function will execute if the promise is rejected due to an error
});

Event Overview

Name Type Summary Class

StreamLayerView

Event Details

data-received

Event
data-received

Fires when the layer view receives features. The event payload contains the attributes and geometry of a feature received from the stream service.

Properties
attributes Object

Name-value pairs of fields and field values associated with the received data.

geometry Object

A location of the received data containing x, y coordinates for points, paths for lines, and rings for polygons, along with the spatial reference wkid.

message-received

Event
message-received
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.26 StreamLayerView since 4.4, message-received added at 4.26.

Fires when the layer view receives a message sent to the websocket connection.

Property
message Object

The message object sent to the websocket connection.

update-rate

Event
update-rate
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.17 StreamLayerView since 4.4, update-rate added at 4.17.

Fires after the layer starts receiving updates from the stream service. It will return the websocket and the client update rates per second. The update rate indicates number of features are being pushed from the server and being processed on the client side. The client update rate will be approximately equal to the websocket update rate unless the service is pushing updates at a rate faster than the client can handle. In which case, the API will down-throttle the update rate and will cause the client update rate to be lower.

Properties
client Number

The client update rate per second. Returns number of features being processed on the client.

websocket Number

Update rate per second for websocket/service. Returns number of features being pushed from the server.
