How to check whether string is present in array with lodash js?

Question

My snippet looks something like this:

let go = "hello";

let col =["12","hello","14","15"];

let f = _.some(col,go);

I want to check whether the go value is present in col TRUE/FALSE. When I run this I get , f=false? How can I fix this or how to check the presence of a string in an array of strings (with lodash)?

Answer 1

Should work

let go = "hello";

let col =["12","hello","14","15"];

let f = _.includes(col,go);

Answer 2

With only javascript you can use indexOf. If it is present it will return the index of the element else -1

let go = "12";
let col = ["12", "hello", "14", "15"];
var isElemPresent = (col.indexOf(go) !== -1) ? true : false
console.log(isElemPresent)
