fromGraphic

static Method
Signature
fromGraphic (graphic: Graphic): DirectionLine
Since

Creates a DirectionLine from the parsed Graphic. The method assumes that the graphic's attributes conform to the route layer item schema.

Parameters
ParameterTypeDescriptionRequired
graphic

A Graphic instance.

Returns
DirectionLine

A DirectionLine instance.

fromJSON

inheritedstatic Method
Signature
fromJSON (json: any): any
Inherited from: JSONSupportMixin

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.

Parameters
ParameterTypeDescriptionRequired
json
any

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
any

Returns a new instance of this class.

clone

inherited Method
Signature
clone (): this
Inherited from: ClonableMixin

Creates a deep clone of this object. Any properties that store values by reference will be assigned copies of the referenced values on the cloned instance.

Returns
this

A deep clone of the class instance that invoked this method.

toGraphic

Method
Signature
toGraphic (): Graphic
Since
ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.24

Creates a Graphic from the DirectionLine instance. The resulting graphic will have attributes that conform to the route layer item schema.

Returns
Graphic

A Graphic instance.

toJSON

inherited Method
Signature
toJSON (): any
Inherited from: JSONSupportMixin

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

Returns
any

The ArcGIS portal JSON representation of an instance of this class.
