MapServiceDraft

Synthèse

The MapServiceDraft class allows you to create a service definition draft file (.sddraft) for a map service that copies all data or references registered data to ArcGIS Server.

Discussion

To create the MapServiceDraft object, use the arcpy.sharing.CreateSharingDraft function and set the server_type parameter to STANDALONE_SERVER and the service_type parameter to MAP_SERVICE. The MapServiceDraft object can then be configured by setting service level properties and metadata properties. Use the targetServer property to specify the server to which the map service is published.

You can also set map service properties by modifying the .sddraft file. If no value is specified for a property, the default is set. You must set the appropriate property values even if you are overwriting a map service that has existing configured properties.

Remarque :

If metadata properties (credits, description, summary, tags, and useLimitations) are not set or consist of empty strings, the map service will source metadata from the map.

For more information about authoring metadata, see View and edit metadata.

After the MapServiceDraft object is configured, it can be saved to a service definition draft file (.sddraft) using the exportToSDDraft method. It can then be staged and shared to ArcGIS Server using the Stage Service and Upload Service Definition tools. For more information, see What is the arcpy.sharing module.

Once the .sddraft file has been staged and uploaded to the server, the tools in the Caching toolset, such as the Manage Map Server Cache Tiles tool, can be used to create and manage map server caches for faster display of map services.

Code samples are available for the following:

Exemple de code

Publish a map service to a server folder

The following script creates a service definition draft file (.sddraft) for a map service and sets metadata properties. The map service is published to a folder in a stand-alone ArcGIS Server site.

import arcpy
import os

# Set output file names
outdir = r"C:\Project\Output"
service_name = "MapServiceDraftExample"
sddraft_filename = service_name + ".sddraft"
sddraft_output_filename = os.path.join(outdir, sddraft_filename)
sd_filename = service_name + ".sd"
sd_output_filename = os.path.join(outdir, sd_filename)

# Reference map to publish
aprx = arcpy.mp.ArcGISProject(r"C:\Project\World.aprx")
m = aprx.listMaps('World')[0]

# Create MapServiceDraft and set metadata and server folder properties
target_server_connection = r"C:\Project\gisserver.ags.esri.com (publisher).ags"
sddraft = arcpy.sharing.CreateSharingDraft("STANDALONE_SERVER", "MAP_SERVICE", service_name, m)
sddraft.targetServer = target_server_connection
sddraft.credits = "These are credits"
sddraft.description = "This is description"
sddraft.summary = "This is summary"
sddraft.tags = "tag1, tag2"
sddraft.useLimitations = "These are use limitations"
sddraft.serverFolder = "MyServerFolder"

# Create Service Definition Draft file
sddraft.exportToSDDraft(sddraft_output_filename)

# Stage Service
print("Start Staging")
arcpy.server.StageService(sddraft_output_filename, sd_output_filename)

# Publish to server
print("Start Uploading")
arcpy.server.UploadServiceDefinition(sd_output_filename, target_server_connection)

print("Finish Publishing")
Overwrite a map service

The following script overwrites a map service. If the service name already exists, the service will be overwritten. Otherwise, a new service will be created. If you want the map service to have specific properties, you must set property values even if the map service being overwritten already has properties configured. Otherwise, the existing properties will be overwritten with default settings.

import arcpy
import os

# Set output file names
outdir = r"C:\Project\Output"
service_name = "MapServiceDraftExample"
sddraft_filename = service_name + ".sddraft"
sddraft_output_filename = os.path.join(outdir, sddraft_filename)
sd_filename = service_name + ".sd"
sd_output_filename = os.path.join(outdir, sd_filename)

# Reference map to publish
aprx = arcpy.mp.ArcGISProject(r"C:\Project\World.aprx")
m = aprx.listMaps('World')[0]

# Create MapServiceDraft and set overwrite property
target_server_connection = r"C:\Project\gisserver.ags.esri.com (publisher).ags"
sddraft = arcpy.sharing.CreateSharingDraft("STANDALONE_SERVER", "MAP_SERVICE", service_name, m)

print("Finish Publishing")
Publish a map service with a feature service

The following script creates a service definition draft file (.sddraft) for a map service that references registered data. The data store must already be registered on the server for the data to be referenced. It then enables the feature capability and sets map service and feature service properties. The .sddraft file is then staged and published to ArcGIS Server.

import arcpy
import os

# Set output file names
outdir = r"C:\Project\Output"
service_name = "MapServiceDraftExample"
sddraft_filename = service_name + ".sddraft"
sddraft_output_filename = os.path.join(outdir, sddraft_filename)
sd_filename = service_name + ".sd"
sd_output_filename = os.path.join(outdir, sd_filename)

# Reference map to publish
aprx = arcpy.mp.ArcGISProject(r"C:\Project\World.aprx")
m = aprx.listMaps('World')[0]

# Create MapServiceDraft and set copyDataToServer property to false to reference registered data
target_server_connection = r"C:\Project\gisserver.ags.esri.com (publisher).ags"

Publish a map service that draws from existing cache

Analyze and register a data store

The following script creates a service definition draft file (.sddraft) for a map service. The service definition draft file is analyzed during staging.

Set a time zone and configure pooling

The following script creates a service definition draft file (.sddraft) for a map service. The data store must already be registered on the server for the data to be referenced. It then sets a time zone for layers with date fields and configures service instance settings. The .sddraft file is then staged and published to ArcGIS Server.

Analyze to confirm map is set to allow assignment of unique numeric IDs

The following script creates a service definition draft file (.sddraft) for a map service that enables the checkUniqueIDAssignment property. The service definition draft file is analyzed during staging.
