Client-side check for items

• This concerns the usage of the SearchItems exports from client/exports.lua
• You can define as many items as you want to search for to get all the results.
• When searching for metadata, using a string will search for metadata.type
• To search for specific metadata use a table such as {grade=1, type='Deer meat'}
• Only partial metadata matches are required, so extra metadata will not return false

  Example 1: Search for grade 1 meat and skin (any animal)

    local inventory = exports['linden_inventory']:SearchItems({'meat', 'skin'}, {grade=1})
    if inventory then
        for name, data in pairs(inventory) do
            local count = 0
            for _, v in pairs(data) do
                if v.slot then
                    print(v.slot..' contains '..v.count..' '..name..' '..json.encode(v.metadata))
                    count = count + v.count
                end
            end
            print('You have '..count.. ' '..name)
        end
    end
  

  Example 2: Search for any type of meat

    local inventory = exports['linden_inventory']:SearchItems({'meat'})
    if inventory then
        for name, data in pairs(inventory) do
            local count = 0
            for _, v in pairs(data) do
                if v.slot then
                    print(v.slot..' contains '..v.count..' '..name..' '..json.encode(v.metadata))
                    count = count + v.count
                end
            end
            print('You have '..count.. ' '..name)
        end
    end
  

  Example 3: Alternative method of checking multiple items

    local inventory = exports['linden_inventory']:SearchItems({'meat', 'skin'})
    if inventory then
        local meat, skin = 0, 0
        for name, v in pairs(inventory.meat) do
            if v.slot then
                print(v.slot..' contains '..v.count..' '..name..' '..json.encode(v.metadata))
                count = count + v.count
            end
        end
        print('You have '..meat.. ' meat')
        for name, v in pairs(inventory.skin) do
            if v.slot then
                print(v.slot..' contains '..v.count..' '..name..' '..json.encode(v.metadata))
                count = count + v.count
            end
        end
        print('You have '..skin.. ' skin')
    end
  

  Example 4: Only return item counts

    local items, result = {['water']=false, ['meat']=false, ['skin']=false}
    local inventory = ESX.GetPlayerData().inventory
    for k,v in pairs(inventory) do
        if items[v.name] then
            if result[v.name] then
                result[v.name] = result[v.name].count + v.count
            else
                result[v.name] = v.count
            end
        end
    end
    for k,v in pairs(result) do
        print('You have '..v..' '..k)
    end
  

Police body search

• It’s just /steal in a menu basically
• Find OpenBodySearchMenu(closestPlayer) and replace it with exports['linden_inventory']:OpenTargetInventory()
• Find and remove the OpenBodySearchMenu function

Clearing player inventory

• Trigger the following event when you want to wipe their inventory (such as when dying)

    TriggerEvent('linden_inventory:clearPlayerInventory', playerId)
  

• You can use the following events to temporarily remove their inventory (such as when getting sent to jail, then released)

    TriggerEvent('linden_inventory:confiscatePlayerInventory', playerId)
    TriggerEvent('linden_inventory:recoverPlayerInventory', playerId)
  

Support for esx_property

• Find and remove the following two blocks of code from client/main.lua

    table.insert(elements, {label = _U('remove_object'),  value = 'room_inventory'})
    table.insert(elements, {label = _U('deposit_object'), value = 'player_inventory'})
  

    elseif data.current.value == 'room_inventory' then
        OpenRoomInventoryMenu(property, owner)
    elseif data.current.value == 'player_inventory' then
        OpenPlayerInventoryMenu(property, owner)
  

• Add this new event to the bottom of the file

    AddEventHandler('linden_inventory:getProperty', function(cb)
        if CurrentAction == 'room_menu' then
            cb({name = CurrentActionData.property.name, label = CurrentActionData.property.label, owner = CurrentActionData.owner, slots = 70})
        end
    end)
  

• If you were using the previous method it should still work, though I recommend adding the label
