FeatureSharingDraft

Synthèse

The FeatureSharingDraft class allows you to create a service definition draft file (.sddraft) for a web feature layer that copies all data to either ArcGIS Enterprise or ArcGIS Online. To configure the properties of a web feature layer that references registered data, modify the MapImageSharingDraft class to include a feature layer.

Discussion

To create the FeatureSharingDraft object, use the Map object's getWebLayerSharingDraft method and set the service_type parameter to FEATURE. The FeatureSharingDraft object can then be configured by setting service level properties and metadata properties.

Remarque :

Si les propriétés des métadonnées (credits, description, summary, tags et useLimitations) ne sont pas définies ou si elles sont composées de chaînes vides, l’élément de la couche Web génère des métadonnées à partir de la carte ou de la couche, selon l’élément partagé. Pour plus d’informations sur la façon dont les couches web génèrent des métadonnées, consultez la section Métadonnées de la couche web.

After the FeatureSharingDraft object has been configured, it can be saved to a service definition draft file (.sddraft) using the exportToSDDraft method. It can then be staged and shared to either ArcGIS Enterprise or ArcGIS Online using the Stage Service and Upload Service Definition tools. For more information, see Introduction to arcpy.sharing.

• Publish a table using field types compatible with earlier ArcGIS Pro releases

Propriétés

Propriété	Explication	Type de données
allowExporting (Lecture et écriture)	A Boolean that specifies whether users can export the web layer to different formats.	Boolean
checkUniqueIDAssignment (Lecture et écriture)	A Boolean that specifies whether the map is analyzed to confirm that the Allow assignment of unique numeric IDs for sharing web layers option in Map Properties is enabled. For more information, see Assign layer IDs.	Boolean
credits (Lecture et écriture)	A string that represents the credits.	String
description (Lecture et écriture)	A string that represents the description.	String
offline (Lecture et écriture)	A Boolean that specifies whether a portal connection is required. If offline is set to False, you must be signed in to a portal to create a service definition draft file (.sddraft) using the exportToSDDraft function. If offline is set to True, a service definition draft file can be created without being signed in to a portal.	Boolean
offlineTarget (Lecture et écriture)	A string that indicates the target portal version to which the service definition will be published. Specifying a version ensures that the service definition contains content compatible with your portal. This property is only honored if offline is set to True. ENTERPRISE_10x—Content will be compatible with ArcGIS Enterprise 10.9.1 or earlier. This is the default. ENTERPRISE_11—Content will be compatible with ArcGIS Enterprise 11.0 or later. ONLINE—Content will be compatible with ArcGIS Online.	String
overwriteExistingService (Lecture et écriture)	A Boolean that specifies whether an existing web layer will be overwritten.	Boolean
portalFolder (Lecture et écriture)	A string that represents the name of the portal folder where the web layer will be published. The default folder is your root folder in My Content.	String
serverType (Lecture seule)	Returns a string representing the server type as specified when the sharing draft was created from the getWebLayerSharingDraft function from the map class. The only possible value returned from serverType for FeatureSharingDraft is HOSTING_SERVER. A serverType value of HOSTING_SERVER indicates support for sharing to ArcGIS Enterprise or ArcGIS Online.	String
serviceName (Lecture et écriture)	A string that represents the name of the web layer. This is the name people will see and use to identify the web layer. The name can only contain alphanumeric characters and underscores. No spaces or special characters are allowed. The name cannot be more than 120 characters.	String
summary (Lecture et écriture)	A string that represents the summary.	String
tags (Lecture et écriture)	A string that represents the tags. Multiple tags can be added or separated by a comma or semicolon.	String
useCIMSymbols (Lecture et écriture)	A Boolean that specifies whether Esri Cartographic Information Model (CIM) symbols, also known as ArcGIS Pro symbols, will be used. Set useCIMSymbols to False to use symbols that can be rendered by all clients. Set useCIMSymbols to True to use CIM symbols supported by newer clients such as ArcGIS API for JavaScript 4.x. This property is only honored if the service definition is published to ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Enterprise 11.3 or later.	Boolean
useLimitations (Lecture et écriture)	A string that represents the use limitations.	String

Exemple de code

Publish a web feature layer to a portal folder

The following script creates a web feature layer service definition draft file (.sddraft) for a map and sets metadata, export data properties, and CIM symbols. The web feature layer is published to a folder in either ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Enterprise and shared with everyone (public). Portal information is obtained from the SignInToPortal function.

import arcpy
import os
import xml.dom.minidom as DOM

# Sign in to portal
arcpy.SignInToPortal("https://www.arcgis.com", "MyUserName", "MyPassword")

# Set output file names

print("Start Uploading")
arcpy.server.UploadServiceDefinition(sd_output_filename, server_type)

print("Finish Publishing")

Overwrite a web feature layer

The following script overwrites a web feature layer. If the service name already exists, the service will be overwritten; otherwise, a new service will be created.

import arcpy
import os

# Sign in to portal
arcpy.SignInToPortal("https://www.arcgis.com", "MyUserName", "MyPassword")

# Set output file names
outdir = r"C:\Project\Output"
service_name = "FeatureSharingDraftExample"

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 FeatureSharingDraft and set overwrite property
server_type = "HOSTING_SERVER"
sddraft = m.getWebLayerSharingDraft(server_type, "FEATURE", service_name)
sddraft.overwriteExistingService = True

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

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

# Share to portal
print("Start Uploading")
arcpy.server.UploadServiceDefinition(sd_output_filename, server_type)

print("Finish Publishing")

Set create and sync capabilities

The following script creates a web feature layer service definition draft file (.sddraft). It then sets the create and sync capabilities on the web feature layer by modifying the .sddraft file using the xml.dom.minidom standard Python library. The modified .sddraft file is then staged and published to a portal.

import arcpy
import os
import xml.dom.minidom as DOM

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 FeatureSharingDraft
server_type = "HOSTING_SERVER"
sddraft = m.getWebLayerSharingDraft(server_type, "FEATURE", service_name)

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

"""Modify the .sddraft file to enable create and sync"""
# Read the .sddraft file
doc = DOM.parse(sddraft_output_filename)

# Find all elements named TypeName
# This is where the additional layers and capabilities are defined
typeNames = doc.getElementsByTagName('TypeName')
for typeName in typeNames:
    # Get the TypeName to enable
    if typeName.firstChild.data == "FeatureServer":

                                            else:
                                                txt = doc.createTextNode("Create,Sync,Query")
                                                prop1.nextSibling.appendChild(txt)

# Write to the .sddraft file
