GraphProperty | API Reference | ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.31

Specifies the properties of for entity types and relationship types defined in the graph schema by the data model. Each instance of a specified graph object type will include these properties.

Examples

//The `EntityType`  'person' may have the following properties.
[{
  name: "first_name"
  alias: "First Name",
  defaultValue: null,
  defaultVisibility: true,
  editable: true,
  fieldType: "esriFieldTypeString",
  geometryType: "esriGeometryNull",
  hasM: false,
  hasZ: false,
  nullable: true,
  required: false,
  searchable: false,
  systemMaintained: false
},
{
  name: "age",
  alias: "Age",
  defaultValue: null,
  defaultVisibility: true,
  editable: true,
  fieldType: "esriFieldTypeNumber",
  geometryType: "esriGeometryNull",
  hasM: false,
  hasZ: false,
  nullable: false,
  required: false,
  searchable: true,
  systemMaintained: false
}]

Return Type	Summary	Class
	Adds one or more handles which are to be tied to the lifecycle of the object.	Accessor
*	Creates a new instance of this class and initializes it with values from a JSON object generated from an ArcGIS product.	GraphProperty
Boolean	Returns true if a named group of handles exist.	Accessor
	Removes a group of handles owned by the object.	Accessor
Object	Converts an instance of this class to its ArcGIS portal JSON representation.	GraphProperty

Method Details

addHandles Inherited Method addHandles(handleOrHandles, groupKey) Inherited from Accessor

Adds one or more handles which are to be tied to the lifecycle of the object. The handles will be removed when the object is destroyed.

// Manually manage handles
const handle = reactiveUtils.when(
  () => !view.updating,
  () => {
    wkidSelect.disabled = false;
  },
  { once: true }
);

this.addHandles(handle);

// Destroy the object
this.destroy();

Parameters

handleOrHandles WatchHandle|WatchHandle []

Handles marked for removal once the object is destroyed.

groupKey *

optional

Key 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.

fromJSON Method fromJSON(json){*}static

Creates a new instance of this class and initializes it with values from a JSON object generated from an ArcGIS product. The object passed into the input json parameter often comes from a response to a query operation in the REST API or a toJSON() method from another ArcGIS product. See the Using fromJSON() topic in the Guide for details and examples of when and how to use this function.

Parameter

json Object

A JSON representation of the instance in the ArcGIS format. See the ArcGIS REST API documentation for examples of the structure of various input JSON objects.

Returns

Type	Description
*	Returns a new instance of this class.

hasHandles Inherited Method hasHandles(groupKey){Boolean} Inherited from Accessor

Returns true if a named group of handles exist.

Parameter

groupKey *

optional

A group key.

Returns

Type	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");
}

removeHandles Inherited Method removeHandles(groupKey) Inherited from Accessor

Removes a group of handles owned by the object.

Parameter

groupKey *

optional

A group key or an array or collection of group keys to remove.

Example

obj.removeHandles(); // removes handles from default group

obj.removeHandles("handle-group");
obj.removeHandles("other-handle-group");

toJSON Method toJSON(){Object}

Converts an instance of this class to its ArcGIS portal JSON representation. See the Using fromJSON() guide topic for more information.

Returns

Type	Description
Object	The ArcGIS portal JSON representation of an instance of this class.
