To display the record edit page for an object, set the object name on the recordId attribute and fire the event. This example displays the record edit page for a contact that’s specified by recordId.

1editRecord : function(component, event, helper) {
2    var editRecordEvent = $A.get("e.force:editRecord");
3    editRecordEvent.setParams({
4         "recordId": component.get("v.contact.Id")
5   });
6    editRecordEvent.fire();
7}

This event is handled by the one.app container. It’s supported in Lightning Experience and Salesforce1 only.
