How to chain selectors in order to get element inside with webdriverio - webdriver-io

Question

I have a page with list of products on it.
This is how HTML DOM looks like for one product item:
<div class="module card listing-search-card js-product-card " id="product-entry-123" data-product-id="123" data-toggle-status="open" data-out-of-stock="" data-toggle-isbundle="false" data-load-prices-async="false">
<div class="product-entry__wrapper">
<div class="card__header">
<div class="promotion">
<div class="product-entry__right promotion-card__body on-promotion--banner-offer">
</div>
<a href="/Products/p/123" tabindex="-1">
<picture>
<img class="card__image mobile-img lazyload" src="/medias/image-mobile">
<img class="card__image desktop-img lazyloaded" src="/medias/image-desktop">
</picture>
</a>
</div>
</div>
<div class="product-entry__body-actions-wrapper">
<div class="product-entry__body card__body">
<h3 class="card__title">
Schweppes
</h3>
<div class="product-entry__summary card__description-wrapper">
<div class="product-entry__summary__list">
<div class="card__detail-wrapper">
<div class="product-entry__summary__item card__description-product-detail">

<div class="product-entry__summary__item card__description-product-code">

</div>
</div>
<div class="container-type">

</div>
</div>
<div class="add-to-cart__footer add-to-cart__action">
<div class="success-overlay">Add to cart</div>
<div class="add-to-cart__action--active">

</div>
<div class="add-to-cart__total">
<button class="button button--primary js-addToCart" role="button" title="Add

<div class="add-to-template">

trigger="openAddToTemplateModal" data-product-code="123">
<span>Add to list</span>
</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
I am calling this function:
isSortedAlphabeticallyAscending($$('div.js-product-card'));
And the function implementation is:
isSortedAlphabeticallyAscending(list) {
for (let i = 0; i < (list.length - 1); i++) {
let outOfStockCurrent = list[i].getAttribute('data-out-of-stock');
let outOfStockNext = list[i + 1].getAttribute('data-out-of-stock');
let idCurrent = list[i].getAttribute('id');
let idNext = list[i + 1].getAttribute('id');
console.log("outOfStockCurrent " + outOfStockCurrent + " " + idCurrent);
console.log("outOfStockNext " + outOfStockNext + " " + idNext);
let productIdCurrent = idCurrent.split('-').pop();
let productIdNext = idNext.split('-').pop();
let currentText = list[i].$('a[href*="' + productIdCurrent + '"]').getText();
let nextText = list[i+1].$('a[href*="'+ productIdNext + '"]').getText();
console.log("currentText " + currentText);
console.log("nextText " + nextText);
if(outOfStockCurrent === "true" || outOfStockNext === "true") continue;
if (currentText > nextText) return false;
}
return true;
}
I ignore out of stock products since they are always at the bottom of the page.
But the list[i].$('a[href*="' + productIdCurrent + '"]').getText() is always returning empty text.
I would like it to get "Schweppes" text, i.e. product name.
Is there a way to chain somehow differently part with .$a[href ...] to get the text from the <a> tag inside the <div> element of the list of products using webdriverio 5?
Thanks!

Answer 1

The above selector list[i].$('a[href*="' + productIdCurrent + '"]').getText() targeted 2 elements.
What I needed to go one div further and find it there:
list[i].$('div.product-entry__body-actions-wrapper').$('a[href*="' + productIdCurrent + '"]').getText()
And voila, text appeared :)
Hope it will help someone with the similar issue :D
