TableList widget

This sample demonstrates how to edit using the TableList widget. In this example, two FeatureLayer tables are displayed in this widget. One table is saved within a WebMap, while the other is added dynamically in the app by calling the fromPortalItem method and passing in the itemId of the associated hosted table.

The widget takes a map property which contains a collection of tables. The tables are read as a collection of layers. In order for the widget to recognize if a table is valid, the feature layer's isTable property must return true.

If a table is loaded dynamically, it must first be loaded and added to the map's tables collection. The following snippet shows how this is handled.

Layer.fromPortalItem({
  portalItem: {
    // autocasts new PortalItem()
    id: "6aa49be79248400ebd28f1d0c6af3f9f" // loads a feature layer table from AGO portal item
  }
}).then(function(layer) {
  layer.load().then(function() {
    // Must first load the layer and then check if it's a table
    if (layer.isTable) {
      webmap.tables.add(layer); // add this table to the map's tables collection
    }
  });
});

When instantiating the widget, pass in a valid Map. In this case, we are setting it to a WebMap containing a feature layer table.

const tableList = new TableList({
  // Two tables should display, the first one is stored within the webmap,
  //ie. Chicago public health statistics. The other is dynamically loaded
  //from the portal item, ie. Chicago Covid daily cases deaths and hospitalizations.
  map: webmap, // get access to the map which has the collection of tables
  listItemCreatedFunction: createActions // call createActions function to set ActionToggle and ActionButton
