Total number of cart item at navbar is not updating for only first time

[ritwickdey]

Hi Mosh. First, - a lot of thanks for creating such awesome course with a shopping site project.

I found a issue that the total no of cart is not updating for only first time of visit (I mean, if the value of cartId is null/ undefined at LOCAL STORAGE).

If I reload the page, that is working perfectly fine.

I've noticed, this issue is occurring due to two async call on getOrCreateCartId(). 2nd async is called before the 1st async task is completed (call to firebase + store the key value to localstoage). That's why there are 2 call to server & 2 unique key generated.

https://github.com/mosh-hamedani/organic-shop/blob/403b20f74b9156f42d0a5d823e0cd765dea41af3/src/app/shared/services/shopping-cart.service.ts#L44-L51

if i write the code like this (temporary solution)

private async getOrCreateCartId(): Promise<string> {  
   let cartId = localStorage.getItem('cartId'); 
   if (cartId) return cartId;  
  
   let result = await this.create(); 
   /*checking again, if value if already set by 1st async process.*/
   let cartId = localStorage.getItem('cartId'); 
   if (cartId) return cartId; 

   localStorage.setItem('cartId', result.key); 
   return result.key; 
 } 

I know, this is bad code, I am repeating 2 same line.... however, still we're still hitting server 2 times for getting key.

Please let me know if I'm wrong.

@ritwickdey Can you explain which are the 2 async calls to getOrCreateCartId() in detail.

Just simply remove the await from the 4th line.

let result = this.create();
