unified_inventory API
=====================
This file provides information about the API of unified_inventory.
Misc functions
--------------
Grouped by use-case, afterwards sorted alphabetically.
* `unified_inventory.is_creative(name)`
* Checks whether creative is enabled or the player has `creative`
Pages
-----
Register a new page: The callback inside this function is called on user input.
unified_inventory.register_page("pagename", {
get_formspec = function(player)
-- ^ `player` is an `ObjectRef`
-- Compute the formspec string here
return {
formspec = "button[2,2;2,1;mybutton;Press me]",
-- ^ Final form of the formspec to display
draw_inventory = false,
-- ^ Optional. Hides the player's `main` inventory list
draw_item_list = false,
-- ^ Optional. Hides the item list on the right side
}
end,
})
Buttons
-------
Register a new button for the bottom row:
unified_inventory.register_button("skins", {
type = "image",
image = "skins_skin_button.png",
tooltip = "Skins",
hide_lite = true
-- ^ Button is hidden when following two conditions are met:
-- Configuration line `unified_inventory_lite = true`
-- Player does not have the privilege `ui_full`
})
Crafting
--------
The code blocks below document each possible parameter using exemplary values.
Provide information to display custom craft types:
unified_inventory.register_craft_type("mytype", {
-- ^ Unique identifier for `register_craft`
description = "Sample Craft",
-- ^ Text shown below the crafting arrow
icon = "dummy.png",
-- ^ Image shown above the crafting arrow
width = 3,
height = 3,
-- ^ Maximal input dimensions of the recipes
dynamic_display_size = function(craft)
-- ^ `craft` is the definition from `register_craft`
return {
width = 2,
height = 3
}
end,
-- ^ Optional callback to change the displayed recipe size
uses_crafting_grid = true,
})
Register a non-standard craft recipe:
unified_inventory.register_craft({
output = "default:foobar",
type = "mytype",
-- ^ Standard craft type or custom (see `register_craft_type`)
items = {
{ "default:foo" },
{ "default:bar" }
},
width = 3,
-- ^ Same as `minetest.register_recipe`
})
