Example Apps

[dbouwman]

In order to ensure that the api works for our desired use-cases, I propose we build some simple applications to validate the library.

The following demos seem useful:

• jquery app
• dojo app
• ember js app
• angular js app
• react app
• node cli app

For the browser demos, the app should use oAuth to get a token, then instantiate a session and execute a simple, authenticated search @ AGO.

The node example should take the creds as command-line args, and iterate over all the items the user owns, listing the titles.

At this point, lets keep these as vanilla as possible - just bootstrap + minimal code needed. We can build idiomatic examples down the road.

I'll sign-up to create the arcgis-rest-js-demos repo, and build the jquery, ember and node examples. Need some Dojo/Angular/React people to jump in as well @tomwayson @mjuniper??

agreed! I can write one with choo 🚆

it's a _mono_repo, so why not just stick 'em in a /demo folder here?

I'm with @jgravois lets just keep everything in one place. You could just add demos/* to https://github.com/ArcGIS/arcgis-rest-js/blob/master/lerna.json#L4.

I would also add the following server-side oauth 2 examples:

• Vanilla HapiJS Oauth 2 Server
• HapiJS + Bell
• Vanilla Express Oauth 2 server
• Express + Passport

@dbouwman I'm writing some helper methods for handling oauth so I'll take the jQuery example.

@jgravois @patrickarlt - sounds great!

I've added the start of a Vanilla JS client side app and a barebones express app in #16.

more demos/ are always welcome.
