Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

offline-editor-js

Maintenance Mode As of May 1, 2016 no new functionality will be added to this project. For additional details refer to this issue.

If you need a fully integrated, robust offline solution that's officially supported, then please refer to our native ArcGIS Runtime SDKs for iOS, Android, .NET, Xamarin, Java, OSx and Qt.

Getting Started

Online samples are available here: http://esri.github.io/offline-editor-js/demo/

This project is also available on npm: https://www.npmjs.com/package/esri-offline-maps

Libraries

This repo contains the following libraries in the /dist directory. The use of basic in the name indicates intermittent offline-only, and advanced indicates the library can be used for both intermittent and full offline.

Reference URLs are provided for developement only. It's recommended to use a CDN or host your own.

Use_Case | Name, Description and gh-pages URL --- | --- Basic editing | offline-edit-basic-min.js Simple, lightweight (15k minimized) offline editing library that automatically caches adds, updates and deletes when the internet is temporarily interrupted.http://esri.github.io/offline-editor-js/dist/offline-edit-basic-min.js Advanced editing | offline-edit-advanced-min.js Used for intermittent and full offline editing workflows. Also includes limited support for attachments. http://esri.github.io/offline-editor-js/dist/offline-edit-advanced-min.js Basic map tiles | offline-tiles-basic-min.js Caches map tiles for simple, intermittent-only offline workflows. Use this library with ArcGIS Online Web maps as well as with tiled map services. http://esri.github.io/offline-editor-js/dist/offline-tiles-basic-min.js Advanced map tiles | offline-tiles-advanced-min.js Used for intermittent and full offline tile caching. Extends any ArcGIS Tiled Map Service. This library should be used in conjunction with an HTML5 Application Cache Manifest coding pattern.http://esri.github.io/offline-editor-js/dist/offline-tiles-advanced-min.js TPK files | offline-tpk-min.js Reads TPK files and displays and caches them as a tiled map layer. Works for both intermittent and full offline.http://esri.github.io/offline-editor-js/dist/offline-tpk-min.js

src files are for software development-only. Themin versions are minified and should be used in production.

#Workflows Supported The following workflow is currently supported for both both features and tiles:

  1. Load web application while online.

  2. Once all tiles, features and attachments are loaded then programmatically take application offline.

  3. Make edits while offline.

  4. Return online when you want to resync edits.

This workflow is supported for intermittent offline and full offline. There are samples in the /samples directory for both use cases. For more information on the differences between intermittent and full offline check out this blog post.

Full offline requires the use of an application manifest to allow for browser reloads and restarts while offline. The application manifest lets you store .html, .js, .css and image files locally. There is also a wiki doc to help you learn more about using the cache with this library.

Attachment Support: Attachments are supported with some limitations. See documentation here

Architecture

##Setup Instructions

  1. Fork and clone the repo.
  2. After cloning from github, cd into the offline-editor-js folder
  3. Run git submodule init and git submodule update
  4. Try out the apps in the /samples folder. If they run, then everything is set up correctly.

##Build Instructions

  1. From the root directory run npm install
  2. Run Grunt build. If there are no errors, the minimized (min) and source (src) versions of the libraries will be output to /dist
  3. For production automation see the npm scripts listed in package.json.

##Limitations

  • Currently does not support related tables, domains or subtypes. The ArcGIS Runtime SDKs fully support these and more.
  • There are browser limitations and technical dependencies. The offline capabilities in this toolkit depend on certain JavaScript capabilities being present in the browser. Go here for a detailed breakdown.
  • Attachments are supported with some limitations listed here.
  • Browser storage space on mobile devices is a known limitation. This applies to stand-alone web applications and hybrid applications.
  • The ArcGIS Editor Widget (ArcGIS API for JavaScript v3.x) may not work with OfflineEditAdvanced after a full offline restart. It's recommended that you build your own custom editing functionality that is fully mobile and offline compliant.

Supported browsers

  • Only the latest versions of Chrome, Firefox and Safari are supported.
  • The most up to date information on this library's browser support can be found here.

##Dependencies

  • ArcGIS API for JavaScript (v3.14+)

  • Offline.js - it allows detection of the online/offline condition and provides events to hook callbacks on when this condition changes

  • Node.js required for building the source

  • IndexedDBShim - polyfill to simulate indexedDB functionality in browsers/platforms where it is not supported notably older versions desktop Safari and iOS Safari.

  • Sub-modules (see /vendor directory)

  • Non sub-module based libraries that are used internally by this project

    • FileSaver.js - library to assist with uploading and downloading of files containing tile information.
    • grunt-manifest node.js library to assist with the creation of manifest files.
    • zip A library for zipping and unzipping files.
    • xml2json A library for converting XML to JSON. Handles complex XML.
