title: Fetch picklist values through SOQL query in Salesforce
body: <p>I am using Djnago &amp; Salesforce.</p>
  
  <p>I establish connection between them through simple-salesforce</p>
  
  <p>I have created a custom picklist on Contact Object of Salesforce.</p>
  
  <p>I wont to fetch all the 20 values of my picklist &amp; display in Django.</p>
  
  <p>I am looking for SOQL to fetch values from Salesforce.</p>
  
  <pre><code>sf = Salesforce(instance_url='https://test.salesforce.com', session_id='')
  sf1 = Salesforce(connection parameters)
  sf3 = sf1.query("SELECT Color__c FROM Contact")
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>sf3 will give me values set for respective Contact records. </p>
  
  <p>I want to fetch all the 20 values I have entered while creating Color__c on Contact object. In Apex we can do that, something like below</p>
  
  <pre><code>public class PicklistUtil { 
      public static List&lt;Schema.PicklistEntry&gt; getContactColor() { 
          return Contact.Color__c.getDescribe().getPicklistValues(); 
     } 
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am looking to do the same in Django. Can someone please help?</p>
