Check if a bottom level nested component has xxx attribute

Hey all, happy Monday! Trying to figure out how to check if a selected parent component has a bottom level child component (number of nesting levels changes) with xxx attribute. Any ideas, is this possible?

something like this:

def find_attr(ents, mydict, myattr)
  ents.grep(Sketchup::ComponentInstance){|inst|
     return inst if inst.get_attribute(mydict, myattr)
    find_attr(inst.definition.entities, mydict, myattr)
  }
  nil
end

def attribute?(mydict, myattr)
  model = Sketchup.active_model
  selection = model.selection
  inst = selection.grep(Sketchup::ComponentInstance).first
  return unless inst
  ents = inst.definition.entities
  first_comp_with_attr = find_attr(ents, mydict, myattr)
end

attribute?("mydictionary", "myattribute")
