Fabric composer tips and tricks - deleting asset from array


If you want to delete an element from an asset or participant that as a reference array to another asset or participant, the process is pretty similar to deleting an element from a javascript array:

1. Getting a registry for the asset or participant
const assetReg = await getAssetRegistry(namespace + '.Asset'); 

2. Getting an index of the asset or participant to be deleted
var index = asset.arrayOfReferences.indexOf(assetToBeDeleted);

3. Delete the index in a javascript style
  if (index > -1) {
     asset.arrayOfReferences.splice(index, 1);
  }

4. Update the asset
assetReg.update(asset);
