Writing a local ArcGis application with Javascript

JoelGraff — Tue, 20 May 2014 18:15:57 GMT

Hello,

I'm building an ArcGIS application that's locally hosted on our network. I have no plans of making it a mobile application or making it available via the web.

Simply put, I'm interested in being able to build a browser-based javascript application that allows a few users to enter data (add features to a pre-defined feature class) via their desktops, so I don't have to manually add everything myself in ArcMap.

Anyway, I know nothing of javascript and ArcGIS, but I was hoping there would be a few straight-forward tutorials that might be useful for doing what I want. I think the ArcGIS JavaScript API tutorials will get me a good start, but I don't think they go quite in the direction I need to go.

That looks like it'll do the trick. I think the problem that gets in my way the most is using a map without having to publish it on a server. For some reason, our IT people aren't really in favor of allowing us to use the ArcGIS server they have set up...

you will either have to use arcgis server, or an arcgis online account.

Sorry about hijacking the thread. But I think I'm facing a similar challenge, but cannot view the link being referred to by Tim. -

I think this is what you are looking for...No hyperlink in "this" ?

Can you please re-paste the URL?
Thanks!

Nebojsa,

It's been a while, but I think this is what I have posted:

Editor widget with simple toolbar | ArcGIS API for JavaScript‌

Hope this helps!
