I am new to experience builder and javascript as a whole so please bear with me. I am creating a custom widget that will apply unique value symbols to a feature layer (set in the settings file of the widget) based on a given field. So far I have been able to access the feature layer on line 13 but I am unsure how to apply the symbology on the feature layer. On the returned feature layer's methods, I didn't see any method to set the renderer.

 

 

 /** @jsx jsx */
 import { React, AllWidgetProps, jsx, DataSourceComponent,
SqlQueryParams, DataSourceManager, QueriableDataSource,
DataSource } from "jimu-core";
 import { JimuMapViewComponent, JimuMapView, FeatureLayerDataSource } from "jimu-arcgis";
 import Point from "esri/geometry/Point";
 import { Button } from 'jimu-ui'
 export default class Widget extends React.PureComponent<AllWidgetProps<any>, any> 
 {
 
  onButtonClicked = e => {
    const datasrc=this.props.useDataSources[0]
    const fl=DataSourceManager.getInstance().getDataSource(datasrc.dataSourceId) as FeatureLayerDataSource
    //need to set a renderer to fl here
  }

   render() {
     return <div className="widget-starter jimu-widget">
        <DataSourceComponent 
          useDataSource={this.props.useDataSources[0]}
          widgetId={this.props.id}
        />

        <Button onClick={this.onButtonClicked} size="default">
          Button
        </Button>
      </div>;
   }
 }

Hi KisakyeM,

Please find my modified codes which it's solved, noted that you have to modify both setting.tsx and widget.tsx and then select data source and map object. 

In your setting.tsx, I saw you disable the <MapWidgetSelector>, which I think you would need to enable it, and then you can select the Map Object for using before launching app. Then in you widget.tsx, firstly you need to set up <JimuMapViewComponent>, and then you would need to write additional lines of code to add layer into the Map Object after you select the option for rendering the symbologies, cuz I didn’t see you have codes adding the layer into the Map Object, I think this is the reason why you can’t see MapView got updated the symbology based on your selected field.
