get the value from force:RecordData on Init handler

Question

Is there a way we can get the value from force:RecordData on init ? I am getting the onclick event of a button.

JS:

doInit: function(component, event, helper) { var opp = component.get("v.parentOpp"); console.log('Name Value: '+ opp.Name); }

Error:

Action failed: c:createIWSRecord$controller$doInit [Cannot read property 'Name' of null] quickActionHandlerHelper.js failed to create component - forceChatter:lightningComponent

force:recordData handles loading the record(s) asynchronously. As such, it will not be available during the init handler, and will likely not be available in the first render/afterRender cycle either. The official method is to use the recordUpdated event. ({ recordUpdate: function(component, event, helper) { alert(component.get("v.record").Name); } })
