Association

AMD: require(["esri/rest/networks/support/Association"], (Association) => { /* code goes here */ });
ESM: import Association from "@arcgis/core/rest/networks/support/Association.js";
Class: esri/rest/networks/support/Association
Inheritance: Association Accessor
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.25

The utility network associations model connectivity, containment and structure relations between assets. An Association connects two network elements, the "From" and "To", and order of the association matter. This class defines an association and its basic properties.

Example
// Utility network service url
const networkServiceUrl = "https://myserver.esri.com/server/rest/services/NapervilleElectric/UtilityNetworkServer";

// Define the QueryAssociationsParameters
const queryAssociationsParameters = new QueryAssociationsParameters({
  associationTypes: ["containment", "attachment", "junction-edge-from-connectivity"],
  elements: [
    {
      networkSourceId: 2,
      globalId: "{46B3FA19-2237-4D38-A7CF-AA34C3T40420}",
      objectId: 44,
      terminalId: 1,

      networkSourceId: 9,
      globalId: "{321C0089-1165-42D9-K45B-ED91B1A40500}",

      terminalId: 1,
      assetGroupCode: 13,
      assetTypeCode: 441
    }
 ]
});

// Query associations, and assign the query result to a variable of type QueryAssociationsResult
const queryAssociationsResult = await queryAssociations(networkServiceUrl, queryAssociationsParameters);

// Print out the first association
console.log(queryAssociationsResult.associations[0]);

declaredClass

Inherited
Property
declaredClass Stringreadonly
Inherited from Accessor

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

errorCode

Property
errorCode Number

Error code returned from the server for a failed associations query.

errorMessage

Property
errorMessage String

Message returned from the server for a failed associations query.

fromNetworkElement

Property
fromNetworkElement NetworkElement

The from side network element of the association. Contains the globalid, network source, and terminal.

globalId

Property
globalId String

The globalId (UUID) of the association record, uniquely identifes this association row.

isContentVisible

Property
isContentVisible Boolean

Specifies the content visibility on the map.

line

Property
line Polyline

The synthesized polyline geometry created between the two network elements.

percentAlong

Property
percentAlong Number

This double parameter of value of 0-1 indicates a percentage along the line of where the trace location is placed. Applicable to line features only.

Example
Line feature with objectId 100 with 2 midspan junctions (j1,j2). The line feature has 3 edge network elements
F-j1, j1-j2 and j2-T.

                                       OID=100
                               F------j1------j2------T

F-j1  (objectId=100, positionFrom=0, positionTo=0.33)
j1-j2 (objectId=100, positionFrom=0.33, positionTo=0.66)
j2-T  (objectId=100, positionFrom=0.66, positionTo=1)

When percentAlong is 0.5 (50%) the starting location will be placed on the middle edge (j1-j2)

                                       OID=100
                               F------j1---x--j2------T

When percentAlong is 0.1 (10%) the starting location will be placed on the first edge (F-j1)

                                       OID=100
                               F-x----j1------j2------T

toNetworkElement

Property
toNetworkElement NetworkElement

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.
