Esri loader while offline?

bladesv — Sun, 29 May 2022 04:48:47 GMT

Hi,

I am about to start development on a web application that will not ever be connected to the www.

I am looking into using "react-arcgis" which uses "esri-loader".

According to the documentation, esri-loader uses a CDN, and I was wandering if it is possible to locally download the entire arcgis-js library and direct the loader to load it locally instead from the CDN?

Thank you

Why not use use ES Modules with local assets: https://developers.arcgis.com/javascript/latest/es-modules/

Before ES Modules came along esri-loader was the best way to get JS API to play nicely with, say, React, but it's not really necessary any more

From the documentation:

"To download the ArcGIS API for JavaScript and its documentation, navigate to the ArcGIS API for JavaScript download page and log-in with your Esri global account."

I too use this to host the API on networks that have no internet access.
