arches-esri-add-in

An ESRI add-in that will interface with a Koop.js service backed by an Arches data store. This add-in requires both the installation of the ArcGIS Pro add-in and the installation and configuation of a koop.js server configured to serve data from an Arches installation.

System Requirements

ArcGIS Pro v2.5(?)
Arches v5.2.x(?) Deployment
Arches-Koop

How to install and use the Arches-Esri addin

Download and install Arches-Esri add-in

  1. Select the branch that corresponds with the version of the plugin you would like to install.
  2. Download the .esriAddinX file from arches_arcgispro_addin/dist folder
  3. Once downloaded, double click the add in to install or follow the instructions found here
  4. Follow instructions to install and configure koop on your Arches server.

Installing koop on your Arches server

  1. Clone the koop repository on your Arches server.

  2. Navigate to the root folder of the repository and run yarn install

  3. Koop.js has an issue with the spatial transformation. Although ArcGIS Pro sends the valid spatial reference wkid, it does not pass the koop.js’ validation step. As a result the reprojection to some coordinate systems fails, including British National Grid. Here is a work-around the issue. The change will let users bypass the validation steps. (Note that this can cause an error in koop.js if a client application other than except for ArcGIS Pro is used with a Spatial Reference is indeed invalid). Make the following modifications:

file: /arches-koop/node_modules/featureserver/dist/geometry/normalize-spatial-reference.js  
instruction: comment out lines 18-27

file: /arches-koop/node_modules/winnow/lib/normalize-query-options/geometry-filter-spatial-reference.js  
instruction: comment out line 18

Configuring koop on your Arches server

  1. Edit the config file (arches-koop/config/development.json) based on the Arches geojson api

"url": for the Arches server
"nodeid": geometry node
"nodegroup": the values that you want to include as the properties, multiple nodegroupa can be added, separated by commas
"type": geometry type (from Point, LineString, Polygon, MultiPoint, MultiLineString, MultiPolygon) you will have to check the response to confirm your selection
"properties: to map the incoming properties for the specified nodegroups to the attribute names for ArcGIS

Other parameters for the Arches geojson API can also be added, such as "use_display_values": true

  1. To start the koop.js development server run yarn start from the root of the arches-koop application
  2. Koop will run at the port 8080 by default, this can be changed in arches-koop/config/default.json if necessary.
