Popup

AMD: require(["esri/widgets/Popup"], (Popup) => { /* code goes here */ });
ESM: import Popup from "@arcgis/core/widgets/Popup.js";
Class: esri/widgets/Popup
Inheritance: Popup Widget Accessor
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.0

The Popup widget allows users to view content from feature attributes. Popups enhance web applications by providing users with a simple way to interact with and view attributes in a layer. They play an important role in relaying information to the user, which improves the storytelling capabilities of the application.

All Views contain a default popup. This popup can display generic content, which is set in its title and content properties. When content is set directly on the Popup instance it is not tied to a specific feature or layer.

popup-basic-example

In the image above, the text "Marriage in NY, Zip Code: 11385" is the popup's title. The remaining text is its content. A dock button popup-dock-btn may also be available in the top right corner of the popup. This allows the user to dock the popup to one of the sides or corners of the view. The options for docking may be set in the dockOptions property.

Popups can also contain actions that act like buttons, which execute a function defined by the developer when clicked. By default, every popup has a "Zoom in" action popupTemplate-zoom-action that allows users to zoom to the selected feature. See the actions property for information about adding custom actions to a popup.

In most cases this module will not need to be loaded into your application because the view contains a default instance of popup.

PopupTemplate is closely related to Popup, but is more specific to layers and graphics. It allows you to define custom title and content templates based on the source of the selected feature. When a layer or a graphic has a defined PopupTemplate, the popup will display the content defined in the PopupTemplate when the feature is clicked. The content may contain field values from the attributes of the selected feature.

Custom PopupTemplates may also be assigned directly to a popup by setting graphics on the features property. For more information about Popup and how it relates to PopupTemplate see the samples listed below.

For information about gaining full control of widget styles, see the Styling topic.

Property Details

Autocasts from Object[]

Defines actions that may be executed by clicking the icon or image symbolizing them in the popup. By default, every popup has a zoom-to action styled with a magnifying glass icon popupTemplate-zoom-action. When this icon is clicked, the view zooms in four LODs and centers on the selected feature.

You may remove this action from the default popup actions by setting includeDefaultActions to false in the PopupViewModel, or by setting the overwriteActions property to true in a PopupTemplate. The order of each action in the popup is the order in which they appear in the array.

The trigger-action event fires each time an action in the popup is clicked. This event should be used to execute custom code for each action clicked. For example, if you would like to add a zoom-out action to the popup that zooms the view out several LODs, you would define the zoom-out code in a separate function. Then you would call the custom zoom-out function in the trigger-action event handler. See the sample code snippet below for more details on how this works.

Actions are defined with the properties listed in the ActionButton or ActionToggle classes.

See also
Example
// Defines an action to zoom out from the selected feature
let zoomOutAction = {
  // This text is displayed as a tooltip
  title: "Zoom out",
  // The ID by which to reference the action in the event handler
  id: "zoom-out",
  // Sets the icon font used to style the action button
  className: "esri-icon-zoom-out-magnifying-glass"
};
// Adds the custom action to the popup.
view.popup.actions.push(zoomOutAction);

// The function to execute when the zoom-out action is clicked
function zoomOut() {
  // in this case the view zooms out two LODs on each click
  view.goTo({
    center: view.center,
    zoom: view.zoom - 2
  });
}

// This event fires for each click on any action
view.popup.on("trigger-action", function(event){
  // If the zoom-out action is clicked, fire the zoomOut() function
  if(event.action.id === "zoom-out"){
    zoomOut();
  }
});
alignment String|Function
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.8

Position of the popup in relation to the selected feature. The default behavior is to display above the feature and adjust if not enough room. If needing to explicitly control where the popup displays in relation to the feature, choose an option besides auto.

Possible Values:"auto"|"top-center"|"top-right"|"bottom-left"|"bottom-center"|"bottom-right"

Default Value:auto
Example
// Popup will display on the bottom-right of the selected feature regardless of where that feature is located
view.popup.alignment = "bottom-right";
autoCloseEnabled Boolean

This closes the popup when the View camera or Viewpoint changes.

Default Value:false
autoOpenEnabled Boolean
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.10

This property indicates to the Popup that it needs to allow or disallow the click event propagation.

Use view.popup.autoOpenEnabled = false; when needing to stop the click event propagation.

Default Value:true
Example
view.popup.autoOpenEnabled = false;
view.on("click", function(event) {
  view.popup.open({
    // Set the popup
  });
});
collapsed Boolean
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.5

Indicates whether the popup displays its content. If true, only the header displays.

Default Value:false
collapseEnabled Boolean

Indicates whether to enable collapse functionality for the popup.

Default Value:true

The ID or node representing the DOM element containing the widget. This property can only be set once. The following examples are all valid use cases when working with widgets.

Examples
// Create the HTML div element programmatically at runtime and set to the widget's container
const basemapGallery = new BasemapGallery({
  view: view,
  container: document.createElement("div")
});

// Add the widget to the top-right corner of the view
view.ui.add(basemapGallery, {
  position: "top-right"
});
// Specify an already-defined HTML div element in the widget's container

const basemapGallery = new BasemapGallery({
  view: view,
  container: basemapGalleryDiv
});

// Add the widget to the top-right corner of the view
view.ui.add(basemapGallery, {
  position: "top-right"
});

// HTML markup
<body>
  <div id="viewDiv"></div>
  <div id="basemapGalleryDiv"></div>
</body>
// Specify the widget while adding to the view's UI

Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.7

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

defaultPopupTemplateEnabled Boolean
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.11

Enables automatic creation of a popup template for layers that have popups enabled but no popupTemplate defined. Automatic popup templates are supported for layers that support the createPopupTemplate method. (Supported for FeatureLayer, GeoJSONLayer, OGCFeatureLayer, SceneLayer, CSVLayer, PointCloudLayer, StreamLayer, and ImageryLayer).

  • Starting with version 4.12, PopupTemplate content can no longer be set using a wildcard, e.g. *. Instead, set the defaultPopupTemplateEnabled property to true.

Default Value:false
dockEnabled Boolean

Indicates whether the placement of the popup is docked to the side of the view.

Docking the popup allows for a better user experience, particularly when opening popups in apps on mobile devices. When a popup is "dockEnabled" it means the popup no longer points to the selected feature or the location assigned to it. Rather it is attached to a side, the top, or the bottom of the view.

See dockOptions to override default options related to docking the popup.

Default Value:false
See also
Example
// The popup will automatically be dockEnabled when made visible
view.popup.dockEnabled = true;
dockOptions Object

Docking the popup allows for a better user experience, particularly when opening popups in apps on mobile devices. When a popup is "dockEnabled" it means the popup no longer points to the selected feature or the location assigned to it. Rather it is placed in one of the corners of the view or to the top or bottom of it. This property allows the developer to set various options for docking the popup.

See the object specification table below to override default docking properties on the popup.

buttonEnabled Boolean
optional

If true, displays the dock button. If false, hides the dock button from the popup.

position String|Function
optional
Default Value:auto

The position in the view at which to dock the popup. Can be set as either a string or function. See the table below for known string values and their position in the view based on the view's size.

Known Value View size > breakpoint View size < breakpoint
auto top-right bottom 100%
top-left top-left top 100%
top-center top-center top 100%
top-right top-right top 100%
bottom-left bottom-left bottom 100%
bottom-center bottom-center bottom 100%
bottom-right bottom-right bottom 100%

If viewing the popup in a mobile UI, the default dock position is bottom 100%.

See also
Example
view.popup.dockOptions = {
  // Disable the dock button so users cannot undock the popup
  buttonEnabled: false,
  // Dock the popup when the size of the view is less than or equal to 600x1000 pixels
  breakpoint: {
    width: 600,
    height: 1000
  }
};
featureCount Numberreadonly

The number of selected features available to the popup.

Default Value:0
features Graphic[]

An array of features associated with the popup. Each graphic in this array must have a valid PopupTemplate set. They may share the same PopupTemplate or have unique PopupTemplates depending on their attributes. The content and title of the popup is set based on the content and title properties of each graphic's respective PopupTemplate.

When more than one graphic exists in this array, the current content of the Popup is set based on the value of the selected feature.

This value is null if no features are associated with the popup.

Example
// When setting the features property, the graphics pushed to this property
// must have a PopupTemplate set.
let g1 = new Graphic();
g1.popupTemplate = new PopupTemplate({
  title: "Results title",
  content: "Results: {ATTRIBUTE_NAME}"
});
// Set the graphics as an array to the popup instance. The content and title of
// the popup will be set depending on the PopupTemplate of the graphics.
// Each graphic may share the same PopupTemplate or have a unique PopupTemplate
let graphics = [g1, g2, g3, g4, g5];
view.popup.features = graphics;
goToOverride GoToOverride
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.8

This function provides the ability to override either the MapView goTo() or SceneView goTo() methods.

  goToParams.options.duration = updatedDuration;
  return view.goTo(goToParams.target, goToParams.options);
};
headingLevel Number
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.20

Indicates the heading level to use for the title of the popup. By default, the title is rendered as a level 2 heading (e.g. <h2>Popup title</h2>).

fetchFeatures(screenPoint, options){Promise<FetchPopupFeaturesResult>}
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.15

Use this method to return feature(s) at a given screen location. These features are fetched from all of the LayerViews in the view. In order to use this, a layer must already have an associated PopupTemplate and have its popupEnabled. These features can then be used within a custom Popup or Feature widget experience. One example could be a custom side panel that displays feature-specific information based on an end user's click location. This method allows a developer the ability to control how the input location is handled, and then subsequently, what to do with the results.

Parameters
screenPoint Object

An object representing a point on the screen. This point can be in either the MapView or SceneView.

Specification
x Number

The x coordinate.

y Number

The y coordinate.

optional

The options to pass into the fetchFeatures method.

Returns
Type Description
Promise<FetchPopupFeaturesResult> Resolves with the selected hitTest location. In addition, it also returns an array of graphics if the hitTest is performed directly on the view, a single Promise containing an array of all resulting graphics, or an array of objects containing this array of resulting graphics in addition to its associated layerview. Most commonly if accessing all features, use the single promise returned in the result's allGraphicsPromise and call .then() as seen in the example snippet.

own(handleOrHandles)inherited
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.24

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

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

this.own(handle); // Handle gets removed when the widget is destroyed.
Parameter
handleOrHandles WatchHandle|WatchHandle[]

Handles marked for removal once the widget is destroyed.

postInitialize()inherited

This method is primarily used by developers when implementing custom widgets. Executes after widget is ready for rendering.

Selects the feature at the previous index in relation to the selected feature.

Returns
Type Description
PopupViewModel Returns an instance of the popup's view model.

removeHandles(groupKey)inherited
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 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");
render(){Object}inherited

This method is primarily used by developers when implementing custom widgets. It must be implemented by subclasses for rendering.

Returns
Type Description
Object The rendered virtual node.
renderNow()inherited

Renders widget to the DOM immediately.

reposition()

Positions the popup on the view. Moves the popup into the view's extent if the popup is partially or fully outside the view's extent.

If the popup is partially out of view, the view will move to fully show the popup. If the popup is fully out of view, the view will move to the popup's location.

scheduleRender()inherited

This method is primarily used by developers when implementing custom widgets. Schedules widget rendering. This method is useful for changes affecting the UI.

triggerAction(actionIndex)

Triggers the trigger-action event and executes the action at the specified index in the actions array.

Parameter
actionIndex Number

The index of the action to execute.

when(callback, errback){Promise}inherited
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.19

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.
Example
// Although this example uses the BasemapGallery widget, any class instance that is a promise may use when() in the same way
let bmGallery = new BasemapGallery();
bmGallery.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
});

Example
// Defines an action to zoom out from the selected feature
let zoomOutAction = {
 // This text is displayed as a tooltip
 title: "Zoom out",
 // The ID used to reference this action in the event handler
 id: "zoom-out",
 // Sets the icon font used to style the action button
 className: "esri-icon-zoom-out-magnifying-glass"
};
// Adds the custom action to the popup
view.popup.actions.push(zoomOutAction);

// Fires each time an action is clicked
view.popup.on("trigger-action", function(event){
  // If the zoom-out action is clicked, than execute the following code
  if(event.action.id === "zoom-out"){
    // Zoom out two levels (LODs)
    view.goTo({
