Angular update object in object array

Issue

Say i have the following object array, lets name it itemArray;

{
  "totalItems": 2,
  "items": [
    {
      "id": 1,
      "name": "foo"

    },
    {
      "id": 2,
      "name": "bar"
    },
    ]
}

And i have a subscription that returns the updated result of only id 2. How would i update the object array without looping through the entire array?

What i would like is something like the example below;

updateUser(user){
    this.myservice.getUpdate(user.id)
    .subscribe(newitem => {
      this.updateArray(newitem);
    });
}

  updateArray(newitem){
    this.itemArray.items[newitem.id].name = newitem.name
  }

or even better, replacing the entire object;

  updateArray(newitem){
    this.itemArray.items[newitem.id] = newitem
  }

This example however updates the array based on the index of the array. So how do i instead update based on newitem.id?

Template requested in comment:

<tr *ngFor="let u of itemsArray.items; let i = index">
  <td>{{ u.id }}</td>
  <td>{{ u.name }}</td>
  <td>
    <input type="checkbox" checked="u.accepted" [(ngModel)]="itemsArray.items[i].accepted" (ngModelChange)="updateUser(u)">
    <label for="singleCheckbox-{{i}}"></label>
  </td>
</tr>

Solution

I have created this Plunker based on your example that updates the object equal to newItem.id

Here's the snippet of my functions:

showUpdatedItem(newItem){
    let updateItem = this.itemArray.items.find(this.findIndexToUpdate, newItem.id);

    let index = this.itemArray.items.indexOf(updateItem);


    this.itemArray.items[index] = newItem;

  }

  findIndexToUpdate(newItem) { 
        return newItem.id === this;
  }

Hope this helps.
