All, I have been having a hard time with this and I thought I ask the community. ESRI recently updated the community map and I really like to use it as a basemap in my application. There is no name for it in the API like others ('streets', 'topo', etc) and of course I could not find the rest end point for the service. So I tried to make use of the BasemapGallery which includes the Community map and here is the script I tried:
// init the map
require([
'esri/map',
'esri/dijit/BasemapGallery',
'dojo/_base/array'
], (Map, BasemapGallery, array) => {
const __map = new Map("map-view", {
center: [-84.242458, 40.144803],
zoom: 15,
basemap: "topo-vector" // there is no name for the community map in the collection
});
const _basemapGallery = new BasemapGallery({
showArcGISBasemaps: true,
map: __map
}, "basemapGalleryDiv");
_basemapGallery.on("load", evt => {
console.log(evt.target.basemaps);
array.map(evt.target.basemaps, b =>{
if(b.title === "Community Map"){
_basemapGallery.select(b.id); // This only selects the map (will be added on top of the current basemap 'topo-vector') but not setting it as basemap
}
});
});
});
Any suggestions please?
