The geocoder configuration is not respected if anonymous access has been disabled #19

Open ghost opened 8 years ago

Please make the geocoder configurable like they do in Web AppBuilder so we can use our own geocoding service. Thanks.

glazou commented 8 years ago

We introduced with last release an optional geocoder configuration in the app/config.js file that should be identical to what WebAppBuilder is offering. Note that if you have configured custom geocoder in your Organization settings, those will be used.

See https://github.com/Esri/map-series-storytelling-template-js/blob/master/src/app/config.js#L473

We are not hosting the code, so changing JS file is not an option. We do have configured our custom geocoder in our org account settings ( thecityofcalgary.maps.arcgis.com) but the story map is not picking it up, and still using ESRI geocoder. See the attached screenshot.

Ok sorry, I found the issue. It appear that if your ArcGIS Online Organization has disabledanonymous access, the geocoder configuration defined is not applied properly. This is the setting:

Until we fix this with our next release planned for June 13th, you can either enable that setting or use the downloadable version and configure it manually.

I changed the title of your issue to reflect the issue and will update you here once fixed.

Thanks for looking into this. We don't want to allow public access of the site for various reasons. Hopefully you guys can fix this soon. My recommendation is to add a simple interface to allow user to set custom geocoder inside story map (cloud hosted), rather than getting it from AGOL as many orgs tend to have more than one custom geocoder for various purpose. We might create a custom geocoder just for this story map to make user search more relative.

Thanks, I did not realize this requirements. I would like to avoid redeveloping a full UI to configure geocoder in the builder but I can see a more limited UI just to select which of the geocoder configured in the Organization should be available in the story with checkbox. How does that sound?

ghost commented 8 years ago

That sounds good too. Thanks.
