Hello!

Is there any way to use custom library that would be accessible from all widgets in Experience Builder? I'd imagine something similar to folder /libs in Web AppBuilder.

Thanks,

Matěj.

There is a "dependency" property in widget manifest.json, you can put your lib url here. The dependent lib will be loaded before when widget start load.

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, I don't think that solves my issue.

Let's say I want use this simple custom library:

export default class TestLib {
    constructor() {}

    private static _instance: TestLib;
    private _list: __esri.Graphic[] = [];

    public get list(): __esri.Graphic[] {
        return this._list;
    }

    public append(item: __esri.Graphic): void {
        this._list.push(item);
    }

    public static getInstance(): TestLib {
        if (!this._instance)
            this._instance = new TestLib();
        return this._instance;
    }
}

In Web AppBuilder all I need to do is place the file in the /libs folder, and access it from widgets using:

import testLib from "libs/testLib"

I there some similar way in Experience Builder?

Thanks.

I assume you are using a third party lib, so you can just load the lib by using a CDN URL like https://abc.com/...., or you can download the lib and put it in the app and load it by using “lib/abc.js”. However, if you are using your own lib, this is a little complex because you need to build your lib as an entry using webpack first before you can load it.
