To solidity function that takes (array of structs) as a parameter.

let slctedItems = [{name:'item1', qty:2},{name:'item2', qty:3}];

contract.methods.calcItems(slctedItems).call((err, total) => {

      // code

    })

//solidity code

 struct Item{

        string name;
        uint qty;

    }

        //code
