TileLayer Force getTileData With updateTriggers?

[jfuehner]

Hi! Do updateTriggers work with the TileLayer getTileData function?

I am attempting to trigger the getTileData function on an interval basis using an updateTriggers variable. However, I never see network calls to retrieve tiles when the updateTrigger variable changes...

Below is a simple CodePen where you can see the behavior...

I am able to get this to work if I call the TileLayer's updateState function directly passing in an params object

{
   changeFlags: {
      updateTriggersChanged: {
          all: true
      }
   }
}

This feels like a hack though...

You are changing the updateTileData variable, not the updateTriggers prop.

Update layers

I see… Thanks for clearing up my misunderstanding of updateTriggers.

My interpretation was changing a value assigned to an updateTrigger property would force the layer assessor or layer function to fire re-rendering that portion of the layer automatically… I didn’t realize I would need to set decks array of layers again.
