Legend Not Rendered on Legend Widget

[pegafal]

Hi,

When using ES Module @Anonymous User/core 4.18.1 for angular project, Legend with visual variable was not rendered properly.

The legend worked when doing in memory build. But when doing production build by issuing command

ng build --configuration=production

the legend didn't show and this error was shown on Chrome console.

Step to reproduced the error

1) Create new project by using latest angular cli

ng new my-project
cd my-project
ng generate c map-test

2) Add this simple code to add legend with visual variable

    esriConfig.assetsPath = '/assets';
    const map = new Map({
      basemap: 'topo-vector'
    });

    const view = new MapView({
      map: map,
      container: 'map-container',
      center: [-84, 32],
      zoom: 5,
      constraints: {
        rotationEnabled: false
      }
    });

    const renderer: any = {
      type: 'simple',
      symbol: {
        type: 'simple-marker',
        size: '6px',
        outline: {
          width: '0px'
        }
      },
      visualVariables: [{
        type: 'color',
        valueExpressionTitle: `Legend Title`,
        field: 'some_field',
        stops: [{
          value: 0, color: '#ff0000'
        }, {
          value: 20000, color: '#0f0'
        }]
      }]
    };

    const legendLayer = new FeatureLayer({
      id: 'legend-id',
      source: [],
      fields: [{
        name: 'ObjectID',
        type: 'oid'
      }],
      opacity: 0.5,
      listMode: 'hide',
      objectIdField: 'ObjectID',
      geometryType: 'point',
      title: 'My legend',
      visible: true
    });
    legendLayer.renderer = renderer;

    map.add(legendLayer);

    const legends = new Legend({
      view: view
    });
    view.ui.add(legends, {
      position: 'bottom-right'
    });

  3) run production build

ng build --configuration=production

PS. I tested using latest angular version (11) as well as angular version 8

There's been a few bugs fixed that might be related to your issue. Try testing using 4.19-next build, which will be released to production in a few weeks. With 4.19 the assets will load via CDN by default, but you can still load them locally if needed. So comment out your assetsPath code when you try this upgrade:

npm i @Anonymous User/core@next

Also, here's a working repo you can use to test: https://github.com/Esri/jsapi-resources/tree/master/esm-samples/jsapi-angular-cli

Yes, 4.19 seems to fix this issue.

Thanks
