Detect loaded maps in MapView

GregoryBologna — Thu, 11 Feb 2021 21:01:50 GMT

I am loading two maps in a view. One map is the basemap "streets", and the other is from a 3rd party provider that is infrequently unavailable. How can I know if the "streets" basemap is the only map loaded in the view?

Example

const map = new Map({
basemap: "streets"
});
const anothermap = new GroupLayer({
title: "Aerials",
visible: true,
visibilityMode: "exclusive",
layers: tileServers
});
map.add(anothermap);

I only want to know if "anothermap" did not get loaded.

I found this post by Robert S. but baseLayerViews is always 0.

var view = new MapView({
map: map,
[...]
view.when(function () {
//  this is always 0 and it blows up
// view.basemapView.baseLayerViews.getItemAt(0)
    watchUtils.whenFalse(view.basemapView.baseLayerViews.getItemAt(0), 'updating', (updating) => {
      if(view.stationary){
        console.log('Done Updating');
      } else {
        watchUtils.whenTrueOnce(view, "stationary", (still) => {
          console.log('Done Updating');
        });
      }
    });
[...]

This blog post shows how you can tell when a layer is loaded and ready: https://odoe.net/blog/when-are-layers-done

I want to know if the basemap is the only map in the view when the entire view is done.

- basemap--------Loaded
- anothermap----Not loaded
-- layers
