Hi Everyone,
i have some issues with getting the custom in-panel widget running. I followed the steps of Create a custom in-panel widget—Web AppBuilder for ArcGIS (Developer Edition) | ArcGIS for Developer... and also create a custom in panel widget problem and Question about creating custom in-panel widget. but the Widget is still not running correctly.
I can add it to a map, but as soon as I try to open it I get the following message:
"create widget error:
widgets/MyWidget/Widget"
Does anyone have some ideas about how to solve the problem?
Thanks a lot!
Veronika,
There are a couple of reasons you would get this error. Can you look at your browsers developer tools and see what the console says?
My console returns the following:
TypeError: Für die Eigenschaft "$locale" kann kein Wert festgelegt werden: Das Objekt ist Null oder undefiniert
PROTOKOLL: panel [_5_panel] created.
PROTOKOLL: create [widgets/MyWidget/Widget] error:undefined
TypeError: Das Objekt unterstützt diese Aktion nicht.
The first error occurs when assigning the widget to Header-Controller, the second appears when trying to open the widget.
Veronika,
So it looks like the first error is an issue with your locale file (nls\strings.js) do you have one what is in it?
Hi Robert,
I have a string.js file but it only says:
define({
root:({
})
});
So I guess that's the root of the problem. Can you tell me what I need to write to that file?
Veronika,
What step in the document did you get to? Step 8 is missing some instructions. Like if you un-comment the startup function then you have to place a comma behind the base class line:
baseClass: ' jimu-widget-mywidget',
And Step 9 the lines of code they want you to copy has some syntax issues (there is a double quote that does not match the others and a missing comma in step 9 part 1):
currently:
define({
root:{
label1: "This is my widget.”
label2: "This is configurable."
},
"zh-cn": true
});
Should be:
define({
root:{
label1: "This is my widget.",
label2: "This is configurable."
},
"zh-cn": true
});
Hi Robert,
thanks a lot for your help. Unfortunately it is still not working. Even after inserting the missing comma and changing the string.js file I still get the same error:
"SCRIPT5007: Für die Eigenschaft "$locale" kann kein Wert festgelegt werden: Das Objekt ist Null oder undefiniert
init.js, Zeile 32 Zeichen 464"
Veronika,
can you zip up your whole mywidgets folder and attach it for me to look at?
Veronika,
I unzipped your folder and added it to my WAB dev version without changing anything and the widget works without error. Have you cleared your browsers cache? I tested in FireFox 36.03 and Chrome Version 41.0.2272.89 m and IE Version 11.0.9600.17691 and all browsers worked without issue.
