Toolkit

ArcGIS Maps SDK for Kotlin offers a toolkit, ArcGIS Maps SDK for Kotlin Toolkit, that contains composable UI components to help simplify your Android development work. Available components include:

  • Authenticator - Displays a user interface when network and ArcGIS authentication challenges occur.
  • Compass - Shows a compass direction when the map is rotated. Auto-hides when the map points north.
  • FloorFilter - Allows filtering of floor plan data in a geo view by a site, a building in the site, or a floor in the building.

The fastest way to get the toolkit into your app is to reference the compiled library (.aar file) from Jfrog, as described below. For instructions on using the toolkit from source code for example, if you want to customize it see Developer setup in the toolkit's repo.

Modular toolkit library

The toolkit has library modules that can be deployed independent of each other in an application. Note that an individual library module can contain one or more composable UI components.

Reference the library from Jfrog

  1. If you haven't already, install and set up ArcGIS Maps SDK for Kotlin.

  2. Ensure the Esri public Jfrog Maven repository is in your project's gradle file, https://esri.jfrog.io/artifactory/arcgis

            ...
        }
    }
  3. Add the toolkit dependencies to the module's gradle file. Specify only the toolkit components that you will use in your app.

        implementation 'com.esri:arcgis-maps-kotlin-toolkit-compass:200.2.0'
    }

    Alternatively, you can declare the toolkit's bom (Bill of Materials) subproject and version number as a dependency. The BOM itself specifies versions of the toolkit components that are compatible with each other. You can see which versions these are in the BOM's .pom file at https://esri.jfrog.io/ui/native/arcgis/com/esri/arcgis-maps-kotlin-toolkit-bom/. For more information, see the toolkit repo's top-level README.
