Custom in-panel widget, create widget error

VeronikaBraatz — Thu, 19 Mar 2015 14:02:38 GMT

Hi Everyone,

i have some issues with getting the custom in-panel widget running. I followed the steps of Create a custom in-panel widget—Web AppBuilder for ArcGIS (Developer Edition) | ArcGIS for Developers and also create a custom in panel widget problem and Question about creating custom in-panel widget. but the Widget is still not running correctly.

I can add it to a map, but as soon as I try to open it I get the following message:

"create widget error:

widgets/MyWidget/Widget"

Does anyone have some ideas about how to solve the problem?

Thanks a lot!

Veronika,

There are a couple of reasons you would get this error. Can you look at your browsers developer tools and see what the console says?

My console returns the following:

TypeError: Für die Eigenschaft "$locale" kann kein Wert festgelegt werden: Das Objekt ist Null oder undefiniert

PROTOKOLL: panel [_5_panel] created.

PROTOKOLL: create [widgets/MyWidget/Widget] error:undefined

TypeError: Das Objekt unterstützt diese Aktion nicht.

The first error occurs when assigning the widget to Header-Controller, the second appears when trying to open the widget.

Veronika,

So it looks like the first error is an issue with your locale file (nls\strings.js) do you have one what is in it?

Hi Robert,

I have a string.js file but it only says:

define({

root:({

})

});

So I guess that's the root of the problem. Can you tell me what I need to write to that file?

Veronika,

What step in the document did you get to? Step 8 is missing some instructions. Like if you un-comment the startup function then you have to place a comma behind the base class line:

baseClass: ' jimu-widget-mywidget',

And Step 9 the lines of code they want you to copy has some syntax issues (there is a double quote that does not match the others and a missing comma in step 9 part 1):

currently:

define({ root:{ label1: "This is my widget.” label2: "This is configurable." }, "zh-cn": true });

Should be:

define({ root:{ label1: "This is my widget.", label2: "This is configurable." }, "zh-cn": true });

Hi Robert,

thanks a lot for your help. Unfortunately it is still not working. Even after inserting the missing comma and changing the string.js file I still get the same error:

"SCRIPT5007: Für die Eigenschaft "$locale" kann kein Wert festgelegt werden: Das Objekt ist Null oder undefiniert

init.js, Zeile 32 Zeichen 464"

Veronika,

can you zip up your whole mywidgets folder and attach it for me to look at?

Re: Custom in-panel widget, create widget error

VeronikaBraatz — Mon, 23 Mar 2015 07:08:10 GMT

Hi Robert,

folder is attached

RobertScheitlin__GISP — Mon, 23 Mar 2015 14:25:52 GMT

Veronika,

I unzipped your folder and added it to my WAB dev version without changing anything and the widget works without error. Have you cleared your browsers cache? I tested in FireFox 36.03 and Chrome Version 41.0.2272.89 m and IE Version 11.0.9600.17691 and all browsers worked without issue.

Re: Custom in-panel widget, create widget error

The missing comma in step 9 (1) mentioned by Robert has been fixed on developers site. Thanks!

Thanks for fixing the missing comma in the documentation. There still remains the issue of the smart double quote vs a standard double quote that is causing an issue for those who just copy the code from the website.

Hi Robert,

clearing my browsers cache had no effect. I assume either our proxy or our firewall causes the problem. Do you know which ports WAB uses besides 3344?

Re: Custom in-panel widget, create widget error

RobertScheitlin__GISP — Tue, 24 Mar 2015 12:54:27 GMT

Veronkia,

Ports 3344, 3345 and 3346 are used. Can you run Web AppBuilder OK when you are not developing a widget?

Hi Robert,

WAB works fine, I just can't add custom Widgets. I installed Version 1.1 today and the Widget doesn't work with that either. Also the change of IE9 to Firefox 36 had no effect. I'm going to give it another try and start over in 1.1

Re: Custom in-panel widget, create widget error

VeronikaBraatz — Tue, 24 Mar 2015 15:35:57 GMT

I just build the Widget with WAB 1.1 and everything works fine until I copy the MyWidget folder from samplewidgets to widgets.

My Firefox console returns:

Error: dijit._WidgetsInTemplateMixin template:nls.timeout

Robert,

The smart double quote has been corrected on the developers site. Thanks!
