Hey,

I want to make my site available in offline mode. I have succeeded getting my tiled layers stored in a local storage and it's working offline.

The only problem I have is getting my dynamic layers stored..

I have tried anything, but the problem is getting all the images from the server to be stored locally (it's too much data).

Only option I have in mind is getting all the features with a query task and draw them in the client, but the problem with this option is that my symbology is very heavy and I don't think I can draw it in the client side.

I need to know if it's possible at all to make a local dynamic layer in javascript (I saw something about it in the .NET and WPF api),

and if it is, how I do it?

Thanks!

Hi Alex,

Currently it is not possible to make dynamic layer offline using JavaScript application. Dynamic layer generates the tiles at server end as per the request and essentially needs a connected environment.

As of now JavaScript API cannot read .mpk files or .geodatabase files directly from your machine like Runtime applications which are basically windows applications.

I am not sure how heavy your symbology is but you should be able to render it on client.

Thanks,

Akshay
