How to save lightning:input type="datetime-local" to database?
It seems that there is a bug with lightning:input type="datetime-local" tag. When I add this tag in my component, thenchoose a date and time using the date time selector and try to save the record to database, apex is not able to take the value? Any pointers on how to save this value to a date time field present on an object. Below is the sample code I am trying to implement:
dateTimeLocal.cmp
DateTimeLocalCtrl.apxc
dateTimeLocal.cmp
<aura:component controller="DateTimeLocalCtrl">
<aura:attribute name="lead" type="Lead" default="{'sobjectType':'Lead','id':'00Q9000001BtwNE'}"/>
<lightning:input type="datetime-local" label="Start" name="Start" value="{!v.lead.Start__c}"/>
<lightning:button label="Save" iconName="utility:save" onclick="{!c.doSave}"/>
</aura:component>
dateTimeLocalController.js
({
doSave : function(component, event, helper) {
var action = component.get("c.upsertLead");
var lead = component.get("v.lead");
console.log("*****Date: "+component.get("v.lead.Start__c"));
// set param to method
action.setParams({
'ld': lead
});
// set a callBack
action.setCallback(this, function(response) {
var state = response.getState();
if (state === "SUCCESS") {
console.log("*****Success");
}else{
console.log("*****Failure");
}
});
// enqueue the Action
$A.enqueueAction(action);
}
})
DateTimeLocalCtrl.apxc
public class DateTimeLocalCtrl {
@AuraEnabled
public static Lead upsertLead(Lead ld){
upsert ld;
return ld;
}
}
