inventory library

Library for inventories interaction.

-- ID = 0 (core:empty) means that slot is empty.
inventory.get(
    -- inventory ID
    invid: int,
    -- slot index
    slot: int
) -> int, int
-- Returns item ID and count. 

-- Set slot content, deleting the data contained before.
inventory.set(
    -- inventory ID
    invid: int,
    -- slot index
    slot: int,
    -- item index
    itemid: int,
    -- item count
    count: int
)

-- Sets the count of items in the slot without affecting the data if the argument is non-zero.
inventory.set_count(
    -- inventory ID
    invid: int,
    -- slot index
    slot: int,
    -- item count
    count: int
)

-- Checks for the presence of a local property by name without copying its value.
-- Preferably for tables, but not primitive types.
inventory.has_data(
    -- inventory ID
    invid: int,
    -- slot index
    slot: int,
    -- property name
    name: str
) -> bool

-- Returns inventory size (slots number). 
-- Throws an exception if there's no inventory having specified ID.
inventory.size(invid: int) -> int

-- Add an item to the specified inventory. 
-- Returns remaining count if could not to add fully.
inventory.add(invid: int, itemid: int, count: int) -> int

-- Returns the index of the first matching slot in the given range.
-- If no matching slot was found, returns nil
inventory.find_by_item(
    -- inventory id
    invid: int,
    -- item id
    itemid: int,
    -- [optional] index of the slot range start (from 0)
    range_begin: int,
    -- [optional] index of the slot range end (from 0)
    range_end: int,
    -- [optional] minimum item count in the slot
    min_count: int = 1
) -> int

-- Returns block inventory ID or 0.
inventory.get_block(x: int, y: int, z: int) -> int

-- Bind inventory to the specified block.
inventory.bind_block(invid: int, x: int, y: int, z: int)

-- Unbind inventory from the specified block.
inventory.unbind_block(x: int, y: int, z: int)

-- Remove inventory.
inventory.remove(invid: int)

Warning

Unbound inventories will be deleted on world close.

Local properties of an item are data attached to the last item in the stack. When splitting the stack (RMB), the data is not copied but moved to a new stack. Properties can be of any serializable type, including tables. Unlike block fields, property names do not need to be registered in the item definition.

The combination of

inventory.get(...)
inventory.get_all_data(...)
inventory.set(...)
inventory.set_all_data(...)

for moving is inefficient, use inventory.move or inventory.move_range.

-- Returns a copy of value of a local property of an item by name or nil.
inventory.get_data(
    -- inventory ID
    invid: int,
    -- slot index
    slot: int,
    -- property name
    name: str
) -> any

-- Sets the value of a local property of an item by name.
-- Nil value removes the property.
inventory.set_data(
    -- inventory ID
    invid: int,
    -- slot index
    slot: int,
    -- property name
    name: str
    -- value
    value: any
)

-- Returns a copy of the table of all local item properties.
inventory.get_all_data(
    -- inventory ID
    invid: int,
    -- slot index
    slot: int,
) -> table
-- Create inventory. Returns the created ID.
inventory.create(size: int) -> int

-- Create inventory copy. Returns the created copy ID.
inventory.clone(invid: int) -> int

-- Move an item from slotA of invA to slotB of invB. 
-- invA may be the same as invB.
-- If slotB will be chosen automaticly if argument is not specified.
-- The move may be incomplete if the available slot has no enough stack space.
inventory.move(invA: int, slotA: int, invB: int, slotB: int)

-- Moves an item from slotA of inventory invA to a suitable slot(s)
-- in the specified range of inventory invB.
-- invA may be the same as invB.
-- The move may be incomplete if the available slots are filled.
inventory.move(
    invA: int, 
    slotA: int, 
    invB: int, 
    rangeBegin: int, 
    [optional] rangeEnd: int
)

-- Decreases the item count in the slot by specified number.
inventory.decrement(
    -- inventory id
    invid: int,
    -- slot index
    slot: int,
    -- count to subtract
    [optional] count: int = 1
)

-- Decreases the remaining uses counter / durability of an item,
-- creating a local `uses` property if none.
-- Removes one item from the slot when the counter reaches zero.
-- Does nothing if the `uses` property is not specified in the item's JSON.
-- See an item property `uses`
inventory.use(
    -- inventory id
    invid: int,
    -- slot index
    slot: int
)
