esri/widgets/Locate/LocateViewModel
Provides the logic for the Locate widget, which animates the View to the user's current location.
The (geolocation) functionality is not supported on insecure origins. To use it, switch your application to a secure origin, such as HTTPS. Note that localhost is considered "potentially secure" and can be used for easy testing in browsers that supports Window.isSecureContext (currently Chrome and Firefox).
As of version 4.2, the Locate Button no longer displays in non-secure web apps. At version 4.1 this only applied to Google Chrome.
let locateWidget = new Locate({
viewModel: { // autocasts as new LocateViewModel()
view: view // attaches the Locate button to the view
},
container: "locateDiv"
});

// Manually manage handles const handle = reactiveUtils.when( () => !view.updating, () => { wkidSelect.disabled = false; }, { once: true } ); this.addHandles(handle); // Destroy the object this.destroy();
ParametershandleOrHandles WatchHandle|WatchHandle[]Handles marked for removal once the object is destroyed.
groupKey *optionalKey identifying the group to which the handles should be added. All the handles in the group can later be removed with Accessor.removeHandles(). If no key is provided the handles are added to a default group.

Returns true if a named group of handles exist.
ParametergroupKey *optionalA group key.
ReturnsType Description Boolean Returns true
if a named group of handles exist.Example// Remove a named group of handles if they exist. if (obj.hasHandles("watch-view-updates")) { obj.removeHandles("watch-view-updates"); }
-
Animates the view to the user's location.
ReturnsType Description Promise<object> Resolves to an object with the same specification as the event object defined in the locate event. Examplelet locateWidget = new Locate({ viewModel: { // autocasts as new LocateViewModel() view: view }, container: "locateDiv" }); locateWidget.locate().then(function(){ // Fires after the user's location has been found });
-
on
on(type, listener){Object}
-
Registers an event handler on the instance. Call this method to hook an event with a listener.
ParametersReturnsType Description Object Returns an event handler with a remove()
method that should be called to stop listening for the event(s).Property Type Description remove Function When called, removes the listener from the event. Exampleview.on("click", function(event){ // event is the event handle returned after the event fires. console.log(event.mapPoint); });
