New Customer

[StevenPM]

Been trying to find a way to check if customer is new or not.

This is far as I can get, with little luck. I am new to scripts, so please forgive.

Input.cart.customer.each do |line_item|
  if line_item.orders_count < 1
    push "New Customer"
  end
end

A Cart only has one Customer. That Customer has an Order History. How many orders are in it (and does the total include this one)?

This was just me trying to get it working, yes there would jsut be one customer.

I tried the following, but it also was a failed attempt:

if Input.cart.customer.orders_count < 1
  push "New Customer"
end

My understanding is that it should be possible to find out if customer is logged in and/or has existing placed order. So far I am just testing a draft script, so not sure if customer values are faked for demo purposes or not, either way, I am not getting new customer triggering any way I try.

I now see that the Scripts Editor returns error if it doesn't find Customer. As this is not the case in Theme Editor, I was incorrectly expecting the two tools to behave similarly, but they do not.
