trouble with setting lightning picklist with database's id and name value.

My requirement is to show account name in the picklist and store id behind so when you change the value in the picklist, you will get id easily.
I tried something like this but not working.

I think this portion is not working : 
label: allValues[i].name,
value: allValues[i].id

Let me know what do you think.


markup :
<aura:attribute name="accounts" type="List" />
  <div class="slds-form-element slds-m-top_x-small slds-size_8-of-12 slds-m-left_large slds-box">
            <label class="slds-text-heading_small slds-form-element__label" for="input-unique-id">Select Account :</label>
            <div class="slds-form-element__control"> 
            <lightning:select name="mySelect" label=""  aura:id="mySelect" value="{!v.SelectedPricebook}" onchange="{!c.onPicklistChange}" class="slds-combobox slds-dropdown-trigger slds-dropdown-trigger_click slds-combobox-picklist" >
                <option text="--Select--" value="--Select--" selected="--Select--"/>
                <aura:iteration items="{!v.accounts}" var="item">
                    <option text="{!item.label}" value="{!item.value}" selected="{!item.selected}"/>
                </aura:iteration>
            </lightning:select>
            </div>
    </div>  
    
Helper :

getAccountList2 : function(component) {
        console.log('==In getAccountList2==');  
        var action = component.get("c.getAccounts");
        var opts = [];
        //Setting the Callback
            action.setCallback(this,function(response){
                //get the response state
                var state = response.getState();
                
                //check if result is successfull
                if(state == "SUCCESS"){
                   var allValues = response.getReturnValue();
                  for (var i = 0; i < allValues.length; i++) {
                    opts.push({
                        class: "optionClass", 
                        label: allValues[i].name,
                        value: allValues[i].id
                    });
                }
                component.set("v.options", opts);
                
  
                } else if(state == "ERROR"){

            });
            
            //adds the server-side action to the queue        
            $A.enqueueAction(action);
    }

      public static List <Account> getAccounts() {
        return [SELECT id, name, industry, Type, NumberOfEmployees, TickerSymbol, Phone FROM Account ORDER BY createdDate ASC limit 10];

There is no change in code given by you.

also I have controller code : 

({
     doInit : function(component, event, helper) {
        console.log('==In doInit==');  
        //helper.getSegmentDetails(component);
       helper.getAccountList2(component);  
    },
    onPicklistChange: function(component, event, helper) {
        // get the value of select option
        //alert(event.getSource().get("v.value"));
        var strtype1 = event.getSource().get("v.value")
        console.log('==strtype1==' + strtype1); 
    }
    
})
Raj VakatiRaj Vakati
GIve me you complete code to fix it rather than bit and pieces .. I know how to get the ID .. 


Change your code as below  .. 
 
cmp.find("selectItem").get("v.value").

instead of 

 event.getSource().get("v.value")

Here is complete code :

Problem is :- it is not populating values in picklist. so there is syntax problem in.

label: allValues[i].name,
value: allValues[i].id

Can you explain what you are trying to do ??


the issue in your code you used name,id but it should be Name ,Id
 
label: allValues[i].Name,
                        value: allValues[i].Id

 
Viru D.Viru D.
I changed it but bad luck. Uppercase or lowercase is not having any effect here. it is still not populating anything.

anything else ?

Perfect !! I got the issue, in my code i was setting up :  component.set("v.options", opts); which is wrong. it should be component.set("v.accounts", opts); . Thanks for all your efforts and quick response.
