Adding total from a repeater/dataset [SOLVED]

Hey guys,

I have a Repeater functioning as a Shopping Cart in which the amount per item is displayed inside the repeater.

I want to show the total of all items by calculating the totals from the repeater and showing it in a text element outside the repeater.

Can anyone point me in the right direction ?

I suggest using the forEachItem function to loop through all of the repeater’s items and sum up the total. You can then show that total in an element outside the repeater.

I am stuck here, Can you help ?

 $w.onReady(() => {

 let user = wixUsers.currentUser; 
 let userId = user.id;
    wixData.query("Cart")
    .eq("userId",userId)
    .find()
    .then((results) => {
        $w("#dataset1").setFilter( wixData.filter() 
        .eq("userId",userId) );
    });

    wixData.query("Cart")
    .eq("userId",userId)
    .find()
    .then( (results) => {
 let items = results.items;
            items.forEach((item) => { //did the forEach as you said
                sum = (item.gtotal);
                $w("#cgtotal").text = String(sum); //total should be displayed here
                });
})
