Esri JS API - Local Stand-alone HTML

BrianRassier — Fri, 24 May 2013 21:09:34 GMT

Hello -

We have a JS app that will need to function offline, and ideally it would function as a stand-alone html page (no IIS or other server). Is it possible to package the Esri JS API in this way? So that it really isn't hosted anywhere, but references are based on a local directory structure (e.g. c:\arcgis_js_v34_api\...). The references could be absolute or relative to the stand-alone HTML page(s).

Thanks
-Brian

I found a way to get this to work. Posting here in case others need the same result.

Download JS API from Esri

Follow the install.htm, but don't enter a "myserver" value when doing the search/replace. Instead, use a relative path to the local JS API (e.g. "js/3.4/")

Open the 2 files that were searched and replaced (init.js and dojo.js)

Find the area with the text replaced from step 2, and remove the hard-coded values prior which will force "http://" to be prefixed on resources.

Follow the rest of the install steps. Now dojo and esri JS can be used with a stand-alone HTML file, without IIS, without a network connection.

I had to place the server name and then it worked.

Going further it looks for the following URLs and breaks, since our ArcGIS server is not connected to internet and we want it to run local.
