How to customize a map tool so as to be able to add a shapefile then create an object and zoom to it?

Question

How to customize a map tool so as to be able to add a shapefile then create an object and zoom to it? We tried to customize a map tool so as to be able to add a shapefile then create an object and zoom to it to use this tool in the cityworks map and zoom to it, but seems that we missing something, I highly appreciate if someone can have a look on this: define(["dojo/dom", "dojo/json", "dojo/on", "dojo/parser", "dojo/sniff", "dojo/_base/array", "esri/Color", "dojo/domReady!", "esri/config", "esri/InfoTemplate", "esri/request", "esri/geometry/scaleUtils", "esri/layers/FeatureLayer", "esri/renderers/SimpleRenderer", "esri/symbols/PictureMarkerSymbol", "esri/symbols/SimpleFillSymbol", "esri/symbols/SimpleLineSymbol" ], function ( esriConfig, InfoTemplate, Map, request, scaleUtils, FeatureLayer, SimpleRenderer, PictureMarkerSymbol, SimpleFillSymbol, SimpleLineSymbol, dom, JSON, on, parser, sniff, arrayUtils, Color, lang ) { parser.parse(); var portalUrl = "https://www.arcgis.com"; esriConfig.defaults.io.proxyUrl = "/proxy/"; on(dom.byId("uploadForm"), "change", function (event) { var fileName = event.target.value.toLowerCase(); if (sniff("ie")) { //filename is full path in IE so extract the file name var arr = fileName.split("\"); fileName = arr[arr.length - 1]; } if (fileName.indexOf(".zip") !== -1) {//is file a zip - if not notify user generateFeatureCollection(fileName); } else { dom.byId('upload-status').innerHTML = '

'; } }); function generateFeatureCollection (fileName) { var name = fileName.split("."); //Chrome and IE add c:\fakepath to the value - we need to remove it //See this link for more info: http://davidwalsh.name/fakepath name = name[0].replace("c:\fakepath\", ""); dom.byId('upload-status').innerHTML = 'Loading ' + name; //Define the input params for generate see the rest doc for details //http://www.arcgis.com/apidocs/rest/index.html?generate.html var params = { 'name': name, 'targetSR': map.spatialReference, 'maxRecordCount': 1000, 'enforceInputFileSizeLimit': true, 'enforceOutputJsonSizeLimit': true }; //generalize features for display Here we generalize at 1:40,000 which is approx 10 meters //This should work well when using web mercator. var extent = scaleUtils.getExtentForScale(map, 40000); var resolution = extent.getWidth() / map.width; params.generalize = true; params.maxAllowableOffset = resolution; params.reducePrecision = true; params.numberOfDigitsAfterDecimal = 0; var myContent = { 'filetype': 'shapefile', 'publishParameters': JSON.stringify(params), 'f': 'json', 'callback.html': 'textarea' }; //use the rest generate operation to generate a feature collection from the zipped shapefile request({ url: portalUrl + '/sharing/rest/content/features/generate', content: myContent, form: dom.byId('uploadForm'), handleAs: 'json', load: lang.hitch(this, function (response) { if (response.error) { errorHandler(response.error); return; } var layerName = response.featureCollection.layers[0].layerDefinition.name; dom.byId('upload-status').innerHTML = 'Loaded: ' + layerName; addShapefileToMap(response.featureCollection); }), error: lang.hitch(this, errorHandler) }); } function errorHandler (error) { dom.byId('upload-status').innerHTML = "

Thank you Egge for your advice, I am not sure if the dialog that select and add the shapefile is working fine, when I tried to add the js tool thats written above, the toolbar is stopped working, may you please have a look on the above js code? or may you please advice me how to check my code if it is written correctly? software? tool?... define(["dojo/dom", "dojo/json", "dojo/on", "dojo/parser", "dojo/sniff", "dojo/_base/array", "esri/Color", "dojo/domReady!", "esri/config", "esri/InfoTemplate", "esri/request", "esri/geometry/scaleUtils", "esri/layers/FeatureLayer", "esri/renderers/SimpleRenderer", "esri/symbols/PictureMarkerSymbol", "esri/symbols/SimpleFillSymbol", "esri/symbols/SimpleLineSymbol" ], function ( esriConfig, InfoTemplate, Map, request, scaleUtils, FeatureLayer, SimpleRenderer, PictureMarkerSymbol, SimpleFillSymbol, SimpleLineSymbol, dom, JSON, on, parser, sniff, arrayUtils, Color, lang ) { parser.parse(); var portalUrl = "https://www.arcgis.com"; esriConfig.defaults.io.proxyUrl = "/proxy/"; on(dom.byId("uploadForm"), "change", function (event) { var fileName = event.target.value.toLowerCase(); if (sniff("ie")) { //filename is full path in IE so extract the file name var arr = fileName.split("\"); fileName = arr[arr.length - 1]; } if (fileName.indexOf(".zip") !== -1) {//is file a zip - if not notify user generateFeatureCollection(fileName); } else { dom.byId('upload-status').innerHTML = '

Hi Majdoleen Awadallah,

Yeah, the idea would be to start with a working example of the new functionality you want to add to an existing application. That example is provided by Esri.

Now the next step is to integrate this functionality in your existing cityworks application. And this requires - apart from a lot of trial and error - at least some experience with JavaScript and the ArcGIS API for JavaScript 3.x.

You indicate you are missing 'something'. But what exactly ae you missing? Did you already manage to create the dialog to select and add the shapefile? Does the shapefile appear in the wrong location? What error messages do you get?

This would really require someone to go and sit down to accomplish this.

Did you contact Cityworks? Are they able to help?

BR,
