I have made my research, but couldn't find the answer.
I have a Lightning App in Salesforce, I used LWC Js and Apex. In one part of the app the user can add a 'desk item' (by typing its name) and select from a checkbox 1-2 items to add them to the 'desk'.
I used Apex to transfer the value of the 'desk item' to an Object and I can show it in a list (in the app).
How can I add the checkbox value(s) to the submitDesk(){...}
so it sends its value(s) along with the 'desk item' value?
I don' know where/how exactly to add and to get it back?
The JS Code
import { LightningElement, track } from 'lwc';
import createDesk from '@salesforce/apex/FlexOfficeController.createDesk';
import getDesks from '@salesforce/apex/FlexOfficeController.getDesks';
import { ShowToastEvent } from 'lightning/platformShowToastEvent';
export default class DeskList extends LightningElement {
// Desk
@track data_desks = [];
//table to show the desks's Id + Name, and the checkbox
columns = [
{ label: 'Id', fieldName: 'Id', type: 'text' },
{ label: 'Name', fieldName: 'Name', type: 'text' },
{ label: 'Accessories', fieldName: **the checkbox value**, type: 'text' }
];
// value to the picklist
connectedCallback(){
this.retreiveDesk();
}
retreiveDesk(){
getDesks({})
.then(d => {
this.data_desks = JSON.parse(d);
})
}
desk = {};
changeValue(event){
this.desk[event.target.name] = event.target.value
}
submitDesk(){
console.log(this.desk, this.value + 'Hi there');
createDesk({desk:JSON.stringify(this.desk)})
.then(data=> {
console.log(data + 'hello');
this.retreiveDesk();
// toaster
const evt = new ShowToastEvent({
title: "New desk",
message: `succefully created. Check out your reservation.`,
variant: "success"
})
this.dispatchEvent(evt);
})
}
// Checkbox
value = [];
get options() {
return [
{ label: 'Mouse', value: 'mouse' },
{ label: 'Screen', value: 'screen' },
];
}
// put the checkbox values into a string ('join')
get checkboxValues() {
console.log(this.value);
return this.value.join(',');
}
handleCheckboxChange(event) {
this.value = event.detail.value;
}
}
Apex Controller
public class FlexOfficeController {
@AuraEnabled
public static string createDesk(String desk){
try {
Desk__c d = (Desk__c)JSON.deserialize(desk, Desk__c.class);
insert d;
return d.id;
} catch (Exception e) {
throw new AuraHandledException(e.getMessage());
}
}
@AuraEnabled
public static string getDesks(){
try {
List<Desk__c> desks = new List<Desk__c> ();
desks = [SELECT Id, Name FROM Desk__c];
return JSON.serialize(desks);
} catch (Exception e) {
throw new AuraHandledException(e.getMessage());
}
}
}
