Swift filter over array reference

Question

I have the two following arrays:

// Customers
let customers: [Customer] = [
    Customer(id: 1, firstname: "John", lastname: "Doe"),
    Customer(id: 2, firstname: "Jane", lastname: "Doe"),
    Customer(id: 3, firstname: "James", lastname: "Doe")
]

// Subscriptions
let subscriptions: [Subscription] = [
    Subscription(id: 1, costs: 1000, subTemplate: subscriptionTemplates[0], owner: customers[0]),
    Subscription(id: 2, costs: 700, subTemplate: subscriptionTemplates[1], owner: customers[0]),
    Subscription(id: 3, costs: 1200, subTemplate: subscriptionTemplates[6], owner: customers[1])
]

Now I want to make a list with all the customers that have an active subscription.

I've tried the following:

// List with all active subscriptions
List {
    ForEach(customers) { customer in
        ForEach(subscriptions) { sub in
            if(sub.owner == customer) {
                NavigationLink(destination: CustomerAboDetailView()) {
                    AboListItemView(customer: customer)
                }
            }
        }
                        
    }
}

I get the following error:

Binary operator '==' cannot be applied to two 'Customer' operands

Does anyone know a method to solve this problem?

You can make your Customer model conform to Equatable and you can check if two objects are equal

class Customer {
    var id : Int
    var firstname : String
    var lastname : String
    
    init(id: Int, firstname: String, lastname : String) {
        self.id = id
        self.firstname = firstname
        self.lastname = lastname
    }
}

extension Customer: Equatable {
    static func == (lhs: Customer, rhs: Customer) -> Bool {
        return
            lhs.id == rhs.id //<< predicate when two objects are same
    }
}
