Add support for local ArcGIS API for JavaScript

garysheppardjr commented 8 years ago

Unless I missed it, the cookbook has no support for the following:

[ ] Installing and hosting the ArcGIS API for JavaScript locally
- This might not matter, since Portal for ArcGIS includes the API for JavaScript.
[ ] Configuring ArcGIS Server to use an instance of the ArcGIS API for JavaScript other than the one on js.arcgis.com
- This could be the instance of the API for JavaScript that Portal for ArcGIS provides.
- It could be another instance that Chef installs and hosts.
- Or it could be another instance running at an arbitrary URL.

This capability is important for those who want to view services through the Services Directory while not connected to the internet.

@garys-esri Could you provide a reference to ArcGIS documentation that describes the manual installation procedure for " ArcGIS API for JavaScript" that needs to be automated?

@pbobov See the Download section at the bottom of this page:

https://developers.arcgis.com/javascript/jshelp/intro_accessapi.html#download-api

The step-by-step instructions are in the API download package. I don't think they're published online.
