Requirement:   Show standard object picklist values on lightining component

We face alot of problems in lightining when there is a requirement when we need to Show standard object picklist on  lightining component . do not worry I  have a solution for you .

You need to do three things to show picklist value on lightining component.

  1.  Get the picklist value as a list in your component controller
  2.   call your controller method from js controller on page load or use doinit method  and set the picklist values to the input select items in component.
  3.  then you have to use  input select tag on your component and iterate over the list you set from jscontroller

 

Lightining component:  


<aura:component implements="forceCommunity:availableForAllPageTypes" access="global" controller="yourcomponentcontrollerclass">

<aura:handler name="init" value="{!this}" action="{!c.doInit}"/>

<div class="slds-p-around--none slds-panel__section">
<div class="slds-p-horizontal--small slds-size--1-of-2">
<div class="slds-form-element">
<label class="slds-form-element__label">Industry</label>
<div class="slds-form-element__control" style="min-height: 18px;">

// We use input select tag to display picklist values, here we are showing accounts industry picklist values
<ui:inputSelect class="slds-input hide" aura:id="editMode11" value="{!v.acc.Industry}">

// now we iterate over the list of picklist here we set items value from  js controller

<aura:iteration items="" var="level" aura:id="picklist">
<ui:inputSelectOption text="{!level}" label="{!level}"/>
</aura:iteration>
</ui:inputSelect>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</aura:component>

 


@@@@@@@@@@@@@   JS controller @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

({
doInit : function(component, event, helper)
{

// getting picklist value as a list 
var pickVal = component.get("c.getPickListValuesIntoList");
pickVal.setCallback(this, function(response) {
var state = response.getState();
if (component.isValid() && state === "SUCCESS") {
console.log('picklist Values : ',response.getReturnValue());

// We are setting picklist values to the input select items in component
component.find("picklist").set("v.items", response.getReturnValue());
}
else {
console.log("Failed with state: " + state);
}
});
$A.enqueueAction(pickVal);
}
})

 


@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ Component Controller @@@@@@@@@@@@@@

 

public class yourcomponentcontrollerclass{

// getting picklist values  into list 
@AuraEnabled
public static List<String> getPickListValuesIntoList(){
List<String> pickListValuesList= new List<String>();
Schema.DescribeFieldResult fieldResult = Account.Industry.getDescribe();
List<Schema.PicklistEntry> ple = fieldResult.getPicklistValues();
for( Schema.PicklistEntry pickListVal : ple){
pickListValuesList.add(pickListVal.getLabel());
}
return pickListValuesList;
}
}
