I have a function written in angularJS that utilizes find to verify the presence of an item in an array;
function checkCartItem(item) {
return $scope.cart[0].cart_items.find(function(itm) {
return itm.item_id === item.item_id
});
}
The function, as shown above, takes an item as input and then checks if the item_id of the provided item exists in the items within the cart_items array.
Now, I am looking to enhance this function.
The cart_items array contains a sub array called cart_modifier_items. When a cart_item is passed, it includes the cart_modifier_items. However, my current function only looks for a match in cart_item.
How can I modify this function to also include the cart_modifier_items in the check?
Essentially, I want to validate if the item.item_id matches any item in $scope.cart[0].cart_items - which the function already does.
But, I also need to verify if the item.cart_modifier_item[i] exists in
$scope.cart[0].cart_items[i].cart_modifier_itemsi represents looping through all the cart_items.
Any assistance or guidance on this matter would be highly appreciated.
