esearch default filter

RudoDuncan — Tue, 22 Mar 2016 16:59:55 GMT

Is it possible to display the first couple of days of calls for service so that my users can see the last 48hrs by default? Then if they wanted to see something prior to that they can search for it using the filter. Currently, my users have to put in a date filter every time they open the application.

Rudo,

You have two choices:

You use the url search Web AppBuilder for ArcGIS | Help - Enhanced Search widget | URL Search
Or you edit the widget.js to do the search for your once the widget opens.

When the user clicks on the widget I want the last 48hrs to display by default. From there give my users the power to filter whatever they need after that. Where in the widget.js can I put that parameter in?

Rudo,

I can keep on being your personal programmer . You are going to have to try to do stuff yourself or hire a programmer.

In the Widget.js after line 910 insert this code, where line 14: 5, 0, equals the search layer number (so 5 is the sixth configured search layer) and 0 is the first expression for that layer.

//Now execute your default search get the last 48 hours
var d = new Date();
var endTime = locale.format(d, {
  selector: "date",
  datePattern: "yyyy-MM-dd h:mm:ss a"
});
d.setDate(d.getDate() - 2);
var startTime = locale.format(d, {
  selector: "date",
  datePattern: "yyyy-MM-dd h:mm:ss a"
});

this._queryFromURL(startTime + '~' + endTime, 5, 0, false);

I'm sorry, I am learning the developer side as I am going along, my apologies.

On line 13 you have 5,0. What do you mean by 6th configured search layer?

Rudo,

Each search layer that you have configured to be able to search is called a search layer (most being a different url then the others).

Yes, I realized that after I've sent the message sorry. I only have one.

Rudo,

So it would be

this._queryFromURL(startTime + '~' + endTime, 0, 0, false);

You deleted a 0 for some reason and I made a change to the 4th parameter.

Is this what is should be?

Also is this how the url search parameters should look like?

looks good

Thanks, I refreshed my browser and clicked on my widget and noting happened. I am sure that I am missing something silly here. I am a novice javascript developer.

Rudo,

actually the code above looks good but the placement does NOT. It looks like line 910 for you placed the code inside the _removeResultItem function. This is not the correct place for it. Remove that code from there an scroll up and fin the comment "//now check if there is a url search to do" and count that line and down 27 line. The next line after 27th should be: "if(this.serviceFailureNames.length > 0){". Right above "if(this.serviceFailureNames.length > 0){" is where you need to place the code. This is the issue with providing line numbers to code that on your end I am not sure what version or changes you have made.

Re: esearch default filter

RudoDuncan — Fri, 25 Mar 2016 16:00:27 GMT

Not providing the line number confused me a little. Would this help?

Re: esearch default filter

RobertScheitlin__GISP — Fri, 25 Mar 2016 16:09:30 GMT

Rudo,

Our line numbers are quite different. Where you need to add the code is NOT in the _removeResultItem function. It is in the _initLayerSelect function. Where you need to put it is before the line numbers you show above. What you need to do is search for this text "if(this.serviceFailureNames.length > 0){" it should only occur once in your code and you need to add the code we are talking about right above that line.

I believe I pasted the code in the right spot and still nothing happened.

Rudo,

Is your browsers web console showing any errors?

Re: esearch default filter

RudoDuncan — Mon, 28 Mar 2016 14:50:39 GMT

It looks like this is the only error that I am getting.

I've attach my Widget.js of my cfsSearch folder. If you get a chance to look at the code, maybe you can spot something that I am not seeing. Thanks again Robert.

RobertScheitlin__GISP — Mon, 28 Mar 2016 15:13:03 GMT

Rudo,

Nothing is jumping out, beside you still had the code added to the _removeResultItem function which would eventually cause an issue. Please attach your whole cfssearch widget folder as it looks like you have errors in other files in your widget.
