Name Type Summary Class
SpatialReference

The spatial reference in which the geometries are buffered.

BufferParameters
String

The name of the class.

Accessor
Number[]

The distances the input features are buffered.

BufferParameters
Boolean

If the input geometries are in a geographic coordinate system, set geodesic to true to generate a buffer polygon using a geodesic distance.

BufferParameters
Geometry[]

The input geometries to buffer.

BufferParameters
SpatialReference

The spatial reference for the returned geometries.

BufferParameters
Boolean

If true, all geometries buffered at a given distance are unioned into a single (possibly multipart) polygon, and the unioned geometry is placed in the output array.

BufferParameters
String

The units for calculating each buffer distance.

BufferParameters

Property Details

bufferSpatialReference

Property
bufferSpatialReference SpatialReference

The spatial reference in which the geometries are buffered.

If bufferSpatialReference is not specified, the geometries are buffered in the spatial reference specified by outSpatialReference. If outSpatialReference is also not specified, they are buffered in the spatial reference of the features.

declaredClass

Inherited
Property
declaredClass Stringreadonly
Inherited from Accessor

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

distances

Property
distances Number[]

The distances the input features are buffered. The distance units are specified by unit.

geodesic

Property
geodesic Boolean

If the input geometries are in a geographic coordinate system, set geodesic to true to generate a buffer polygon using a geodesic distance. The bufferSpatialReference property is ignored when geodesic is set to true. Requires ArcGIS Server 10.1 or greater geometry service. For more information, see the ArcGIS REST API documentation on the GeometryService buffer operation and the geodesic property.

geometries

Property
geometries Geometry[]

The input geometries to buffer.

outSpatialReference

Property
outSpatialReference SpatialReference

The spatial reference for the returned geometries.

If outSpatialReference is not specified, the output geometries are in the spatial reference specified by bufferSpatialReference. If bufferSpatialReference also is not specified, they are in the spatial reference of the features.

unionResults

Property
unionResults Boolean

If true, all geometries buffered at a given distance are unioned into a single (possibly multipart) polygon, and the unioned geometry is placed in the output array.

unit

Property
unit String

The units for calculating each buffer distance. If unit is not specified, the units are derived from bufferSpatialReference. If bufferSpatialReference is not specified, the units are derived from the features.

For a list of valid units, see esriSRUnitType Constants and esriSRUnit2Type Constants.

Possible Values:"feet"|"kilometers"|"meters"|"miles"|"nautical-miles"|"yards"

Method Overview

Name 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.

BufferParameters
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.

addHandles

Inherited
Method
addHandles(handleOrHandles, groupKey)
Inherited from Accessor
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.25 Accessor since 4.0, addHandles added at 4.25.

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
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.25 Accessor since 4.0, hasHandles added at 4.25.

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
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.25 Accessor since 4.0, removeHandles added at 4.25.

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.
