How to achieve individual card functionality with JS?

Repo: https://github.com/bigolboyyo/weatherdbapp
Hello! I am working on a small project working with an API for the first time. I'm making a simple weather app that allows you to type in a location and append a "card" of data.
This card has a "front" and "back". Front being the weather data and the back being a simple textarea notepad.
As far as functionality goes I am just about there. My only issue is now when I have more than one card I only get an event listener on the first card button and the first card's button affects all the other cards created after! How would I apply the event listener for each card's buttons made and have those buttons only affect the relevant card?
Current code I'm working with
let notesBtn = document.getElementById("notes-btn");
notesBtn.addEventListener("click", handleFrontClick);
console.log(notesBtn);
function handleFrontClick(e) {
e.target.parentNode.remove();
card.appendChild(back);
let frontBtn = document.getElementById("front-btn");
frontBtn.addEventListener("click", (e) => {
e.target.parentNode.remove();
card.appendChild(front);
});

Conditional statement limiting the number of displayed elements

I'm having trouble implementing the logic that will limit me from adding the same items to my shopping list. When the item is the same, I just want to display the quantity with the existing item.
<div class="pizzas">
</div>
<div class="shoppingCart">
<p class="totalPrice">Hungry? order our pizzas</p>
</div>
// js
fetch("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/alexsimkovich/patronage/main/api/data.json")
.then(data => data.json())
.then(data => {
let valueCurrency = 0;
data.forEach(element => {
const shoppingCart = document.querySelector(".shoppingCart");
const pizzas = document.querySelector(".pizzas");
const box = document.createElement("div");
const img = document.createElement("img");
const title = document.createElement("h3");
const ingredients = document.createElement("p");
const price = document.createElement("h4");
const btn = document.createElement("button");
const totalPrice = document.querySelector(".totalPrice");
box.className = "box";
ingredients.className = "ingredients"
btn.className = "btn";
img.src = element.image;
img.className = "img";
title.innerHTML = element.title;
ingredients.innerHTML = element.ingredients;
price.innerHTML = element.price.toFixed(2) + " zł";
btn.innerHTML = "Dodaj do koszyka";
box.appendChild(img);
box.appendChild(title);
box.appendChild(ingredients);
box.appendChild(price);
box.appendChild(btn);
pizzas.appendChild(box);
btn.addEventListener("click", (e) => {
valueCurrency = valueCurrency + element.price;
const pizza = document.createElement("div");
pizza.className = "pizzaList";
const pizzasList = document.createElement("li");
const pizzaPrice = document.createElement("p");
const btnRemove = document.createElement("button");
btnRemove.innerText = "X";
pizzasList.innerText = title.textContent;
pizzaPrice.innerText = price.textContent;
pizza.appendChild(pizzasList);
pizza.appendChild(pizzaPrice);
pizza.appendChild(btnRemove);
totalPrice.innerText = "Całkowita cena: " + valueCurrency.toFixed(2);
if(pizzasList.innerText === pizzasList.innerText)
{
// don't add another item to the list
// just add +1 to existing element
}
else
{
// add an item to the list
shoppingCart.prepend(pizza);
}
btnRemove.addEventListener("click", (e) => {
pizza.remove();
valueCurrency = valueCurrency - element.price;
totalPrice.innerText = "Całkowita cena: " + valueCurrency.toFixed(2);
})
})
});
})
.catch(err => console.log(err));
My problem is exactly in the conditional statement, I don't know exactly how to implement the counting of the same pizzas option.
Thank you in advance for your help.

Since you are using html elements for this, what you can do is to use a data-attribute in your pizza element and increment it each time you need.
Something like:
if(pizzasList === pizzasList)
{
pizza.dataset.total = Number(pizza.dataset.total) + 1;
}
else
{
pizza.dataset.total = 1;
shoppingCart.prepend(pizza);
}
Then just use pizza.dataset.total to retieve the total number of repetitions.

Remove previous DOM elements when using array map method

I'm trying to implement server side pagination with NodeJS/Express. But the frontend rendering of it isn't working as expected. I fetch from a third-party API and implement the logic for the pagination. I then connect it to the frontend for rendering.
I have created cards to render the information from the API, first time remove the cards to render next page elements/cards with the code:
if(card !== undefined){
card.remove();
}
It works and it removes the cards, you can see this in the frontend, first eventlistener. But when I try to implement the same in the second eventlistener the elements/cards aren't removed and replaced with new ones.
Pagination - Backend
const express = require('express');
const router = express.Router();
const fetch = require('node-fetch');

.then(response => response.json())
.then(data => {
getDetailsPokemon(data)
}).catch(error => {
console.log(error);
})
}
getPokemonInfo()
async function getDetailsPokemon(pokemon){
const pokemonArr = pokemon.results;
const eachPokemon = pokemonArr.map(pokeEl => {
return fetch(pokeEl.url)
.then(response => response.json())
.catch(error => {
console.log(error);
})
})
Promise.all(eachPokemon)
.then(values => {
const page = parseInt(req.query.page);
const limit = parseInt(req.query.limit);
console.log(page, limit);
const startIndex = (page - 1) * limit;
const endIndex = page * limit;
console.log(startIndex, endIndex);
const results = {}

Javascript - can't iterate over object in incremental search

I'm very new to javascript/dev so I hope there is a an obvious solution that I've not thought of. My code returns search items from TVMaze.com API. The feature giving me trouble is the incremental search (as a user types in input box, the code returns and displays images by creating a new div and appending images, removing and replacing the an div).
My problem is that on deleting all characters from input box, I receive the error: "Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: shows is not iterable" which I suppose means that there is no object to iterate over? Thanks in advance for any help.
const input = document.querySelector("#query");
input.addEventListener("input", async function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
const searchTerm = e.target.value;
const config = { params: { q: searchTerm } };
const res = await axios.get(`http://api.tvmaze.com/search/shows?`, config);
makeImages(res.data);
clearList();
});
const makeImages = (shows) => {
const div = document.createElement("div");
for (let result of shows) {
if (result.show.image) {
const img = document.createElement("IMG");
img.className += "resultImage";
img.src = result.show.image.medium;
const title = document.createElement("h3");
title.className += "resultTitle";
title.innerText = result.show.name;
const year = document.createElement("h4");
year.className += "score";
year.innerText = result.show.premiered;
var sub = year.innerText.substring(0, 4);
var yearNum = parseInt(sub);
div.append(year);
div.append(img);
div.append(title);
document.body.appendChild(div);
}
if (yearNum <= 2000) {
var retro = document.createElement("h5");
retro.className = "retro";
retro.innerText = "retro";
div.append(retro);
}
}
};
let clearList = () => {
var allImg = document.querySelectorAll("IMG");
if (allImg.length === 0) {
document.createElement("div");
return makeImages();
}
var oldDiv = document.querySelector("div");
oldDiv.remove();
console.log(oldDiv);
};

How do I Convert a HTML Collection into an array, without emptying it? #2

I am trying to convert an HTML Collection of "li"s into an array, but the result in the array being emptied.
I read this question and applied that, but it doesn't work.How do I convert a HTMLCollection into an array, without emptying it?
<body>
<ul id="base"></ul>
<script>
const json = [{
"id" : "1",
"date" : "2013/05/05",
},{
"id" : "2",
"date" : "2019/05/05",
}];
for (item of json) {
const list = document.createElement('li');
list.textContent = `${item.date}`;
base.appendChild(list)
}
///the code above works fine.
const base = document.getElementById("base");
const myNodeList = base.getElementsByTagName("li");
console.log(myNodeList);
// gives HTMLCollection
const myArray = Array.from(myNodeList)
// returns empty array
</script>
</body>
the result
I tested the same code on console and it worked fine as below.

The code cannot work before you are using base before initializing it. Placing the initialization before using it makes it work.
Here I modified it: https://jsfiddle.net/tk78z5gq/

Thank you so much guys!
The problem was async.
I should have said that earlier, I fetch the data from NeDB with async function.
The array was empty because DOM was executed before async function fetching data was executed.
The full code below was fixed one. I'm not sure this is best way, but at least it worked.
let dataM = null;
async function getHTMLData() {
const response = await fetch('/api');
const data = await response.json();
dataM = data;
const base = document.getElementById("base");
for (item of data) {
const root = document.createElement('li');
root.className = "col-md-auto";
root.title = `${item.date}`;
const border = document.createElement('div');
border.className = "row no-gutters border rounded overflow-hidden flex-md-row mb-4 shadow-sm h-md-250 position-relative";
root.appendChild(border);
const flex = document.createElement('div');
flex.className = "col p-4 d-flex flex-column position-static";
border.appendChild(flex);
const country = document.createElement('strong');
country.className = "d-inline-block mb-2 text-primary";
const title = document.createElement('h3');
title.className = "mb-0";
const date = document.createElement('div');
date.className = "mb-1 text-muted";
date.id = "date";
const fieldItem = document.createElement('p');
fieldItem.className = "mb-auto";
const imageRoot = document.createElement('figure');
imageRoot.className = "image mb-2";
const link = document.createElement('a');
link.className = "p-4";
const linkText = document.createTextNode("Source");
country.textContent = `${item.country}`;
title.textContent = `${item.title}`;
date.textContent = `${item.date}`;
fieldItem.textContent = `${(item.fieldItem)}`;
for (var i = 0; i < item.imageSrc.length; i++) {
const image = document.createElement('img');
image.src = item.imageSrc[i];
image.alt = 'seized items'
image.className = "w-5 h-5";
// image.crossOrigin ="use-credentials";
imageRoot.appendChild(image);
}
const imageText = document.createElement('text');
imageText.innerHTML = `<br>${item.imageText}`;
imageRoot.appendChild(imageText);
link.appendChild(linkText);
link.title = "Source";
link.href = item.URL;
link.className = "";
flex.append(country, title, date, fieldItem, imageRoot, link);
base.appendChild(root);
}
}
sortDate();
