Search widget locator filter

Anonymous User — Sat, 11 Dec 2021 12:22:16 GMT

Hi all,

I am using the ArcGIS Javascript 4.x and try to apply the filter in the documentation but I am not getting it to work. I want the suggested results to be only "California".

Code is here.

//Search widget here
            var searchWidget = new Search({
                view: view,
                popupEnabled: false,
                popupOpen: false,
                resultGraphicEnabled: false,
                includeDefaultSources: false,
                
                sources: // Default sources[] when sources is not specified
                [
                    {
                        locator: new Locator({ url: "//geocode.arcgis.com/arcgis/rest/services/World/GeocodeServer" }),
                        singleLineFieldName: "SingleLine",
                        outFields: ["Addr_type"],
                        name: "ArcGIS World Geocoding Service",
                        placeholder: "Enter an address",
                        resultSymbol: {
                            type: "picture-marker",  // autocasts as new PictureMarkerSymbol()
                            url: this.basePath + "/images/search/search-symbol-32.png",
                            size: 24,
                            width: 24,
                            height: 24,
                            xoffset: 0,
                            yoffset: 0
                        },
                        filter: "State =" + "'" + "California" + "'",
                    }
                ]
            }, "search");‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Any idea?

Alex,

The filter property is expecting an object with a property of where.

            //Search widget here
            var searchWidget = new Search({
                view: view,
                popupEnabled: false,
                popupOpen: false,
                resultGraphicEnabled: false,
                includeDefaultSources: false,
                
                sources: // Default sources[] when sources is not specified
                [
                    {
                        locator: new Locator({ url: "//geocode.arcgis.com/arcgis/rest/services/World/GeocodeServer" }),
                        singleLineFieldName: "SingleLine",
                        outFields: ["Addr_type"],
                        name: "ArcGIS World Geocoding Service",
                        placeholder: "Enter an address",
                        resultSymbol: {
                            type: "picture-marker",  // autocasts as new PictureMarkerSymbol()
                            url: this.basePath + "/images/search/search-symbol-32.png",
                            size: 24,
                            width: 24,
                            height: 24,
                            xoffset: 0,
                            yoffset: 0
                        },
                        filter: {where: "State = 'California'"},
                    }
                ]
            }, "search");‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

I am not not too sure what field to query to get only california (World geocoder from ESRI) related suggested results so I went ahead and used a geometry retrieved from a MapImageservice and input it in the search widget and it does not seem to return only california addresses. Am I missing something here?

 var query = new Query();
            query.where = "NAME = 'California'";
            query.returnGeometry = true;
            var geomcalifornia;

            queryTask.execute(query).then(function (results) {
                console.log(results.features[0].geometry);
                geomcalifornia = results.features[0].geometry;

            });


 //Search widget here
            var searchWidget = new Search({
                view: view,
                popupEnabled: false,
                popupOpenOnSelect: false,
                resultGraphicEnabled: false,
                includeDefaultSources: false,
                
                sources: // Default sources[] when sources is not specified
                [
                    {
                        locator: new Locator({ url: "//geocode.arcgis.com/arcgis/rest/services/World/GeocodeServer" }),
                        singleLineFieldName: "SingleLine",
                        outFields: ["Addr_type"],
                        name: "ArcGIS World Geocoding Service",
                        placeholder: "Enter an address",
                        resultSymbol: {
                            type: "picture-marker",  // autocasts as new PictureMarkerSymbol()
                            url: this.basePath + "/images/search/search-symbol-32.png",
                            size: 24,
                            width: 24,
                            height: 24,
                            xoffset: 0,
                            yoffset: 0
                        },
                        filter: { geomcalifornia }
                    }
                ]
            }, "search");‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Alex,

Again the filter is expecting an object with certain properties.

filter: { geometry: geomcalifornia }

That did the trick. Thank you Robert!
