How to get widget's config.json inside isFeatureSupported()

[KevinTelles]

I am building a FeatureAction for my custom widget. I want to allow only features of services defined in the widget's config.json to have access to this FeatureAction. So I need the contents of the config.json file.

I could get it from the widget object using the WidgetManager, problem is that when the widget is not loaded the object won't be found. I don't want to force the user to open the widget before using the FeatureAction. Is there a way to accomplish this?

Here's a conceptual and simplified example of what I am trying to accomplish. 

isFeatureSupported: function(featureSet) {

   if (featureSet.features.length !== 1)

      var feature = featureSet.features[0]

      var config = getWidgetConfig() // how?

      return config.supportedServices.includes(feature.layer.url) 

},

Kevin,

  How would the widget not be loaded if this is a feature action of that widget?...

I use a test like this to make sure the action is only shown for a particular widget.

    isFeatureSupported: function(featureSet, layer){
      var supported = false;
      supported = featureSet.features.length > 1 && layer;
      var tWidget = WidgetManager.getInstance().getWidgetById(this.widgetId);
      if(tWidget && tWidget.state === 'active'){
        return supported;
      }else{
        return false;
      };
    },‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

I don't know. `getWidgetById()` only works after I open the widget. The code you provided actually forces the user to open and keep the widget open for the FeatureAction to work.

Edit: I found a solution in case anyone is curious:

_getWidgetObj: function(widgetId) {
   return this.appConfig.widgetOnScreen.widgets
      .concat(this.appConfig.widgetPool.widgets)
      .find(function(widget){
         return widget.id === widgetId
      })
},

The function above will find the widget object regardless of it being loaded or not.

Kevin,

   Here is a more simple one line solution:

this.appConfig.getConfigElementById(this.widgetId).config
