Custom Label in Lightning Component

Custom Label in Lightning Component:
$Label.c.labelName for the default namespace.
$Label.namespace.labelName if your org has a namespace, or to access a label in a managed package.

<aura:component implements="flexipage:availableForAllPageTypes">
    <div onclick="{!c.clickLabel}">
        <ui:outputText value="{!$Label.c.Message}" />
    </div>
</aura:component>

Custom Label in Javascript:
$A.get(“$Label.c.labelName”) for the default namespace.
$A.get(“$Label.namespace.labelName”) if your org has a namespace, or to access a label in a managed package.

({
    clickLabel : function(component, event, helper) {
        var label = $A.get("$Label.c.Message");
        alert(label);
    }
})

Salesforce Lightning Datatable With Pagination

Apex Class:

public class SampleController {
    
    //Get Account Records
    @AuraEnabled
    public static  List<Account> getAccounts(Integer pageSize, Integer pageNumber){
        Integer offset = (pageNumber - 1) * pageSize;
        List<Account> accList = new List<Account>();
        accList = [SELECT Id, Name, AccountNumber, Industry, Phone FROM Account LIMIT :pageSize OFFSET :offset];
        return accList;
    }
    
    //Delete Account
    @AuraEnabled
    public static void deleteAccount(Account acc){
        Delete acc;
    }

Get Picklist Values Dynamically In Lightning Component

In below example I’m retrieving “Account” object “Industry” picklist values and populating on lightning component using lightning:select and creating account record.

Apex Controller:

public class SampleAuraController {
    
    @AuraEnabled //Save Account Data
    Public static void createAccount(Account objacc){
        try{
            //Insert Account Record
            insert objacc; 
            
        }catch(Exception e){
            //throw exception message
            throw new AuraHandledException(e.getMessage());
        }
        finally {
        }
    }
    
    @AuraEnabled //get Account Industry Picklist Values
    public static Map<String, String> getIndustry(){
        Map<String, String> options = new Map<String, String>();
        //get Account Industry Field Describe
        Schema.DescribeFieldResult fieldResult = Account.Industry.getDescribe();
        //get Account Industry Picklist Values
        List<Schema.PicklistEntry> pList = fieldResult.getPicklistValues();
        for (Schema.PicklistEntry p: pList) {
            //Put Picklist Value & Label in Map
            options.put(p.getValue(), p.getLabel());
        }
        return options;
    }
}

Lightning OverlayLibrary Modal

In Spring 18 Salesforce has provided lightning:overlayLibrary tag to displays messages via modals and popovers. This component requires API version 41.0 and later. lightning:overlayLibrary is not supported in the lightning application. It’s supported only on salesforce lightning experience Lightning, Console, Communities.

In this example, I’m using below components:

Main Component (Sample.cmp) – Will contain lightning:overlayLibrary tag with aura:id attribute and a lightning:button
Modal Content (OverlayLibraryModal.cmp) – The component responsible for containing all the content to show in the Modal as content.

Sample.cmp:

Set or Modify Field Values in Onsubmit Event of lightning:recordeditform

Sometimes we can have a requirement to add or modify field values in onsubmit event of lightning:recordeditform. In below example, I’m creating “Lead” object record using lightning:recordeditform and in onsubmit event, I’m adding “Description” field value of “Lead” object.
