🎒qb-inventory

Store your precious!

Introduction

  • Handles all the player's storage such as personal, vehicle, stash, drops

  • qb-shops integration for displaying all items available to buy

  • Built-in support for usable vending machines

All exports listed are SERVER only unless specified

Inventory State

The inventory state is controlled via state bags using a state bag name of inv_busy. You can use this state to control whether the inventory should be able to be opened or not

Example (server):

RegisterCommand('checkState', function(source)
    local player = Player(source)
    local state = player.state.inv_busy
    print('Inventory current state is', state)
end, true)

RegisterCommand('lockInventory', function(source)
    local player = Player(source)
    player.state.inv_busy = true
    print('Inventory current state is', state)
end, true)

RegisterCommand('unlockInventory', function(source)
    local player = Player(source)
    player.state.inv_busy = false
    print('Inventory current state is', state)
end, true)

Example (client):

RegisterCommand('lockInventory', function()
    LocalPlayer.state:set('inv_busy', true, true)
end, false)

RegisterCommand('unlockInventory', function()
    LocalPlayer.state:set('inv_busy', false, true)
end, false)

Item Info

You can use SetItemData to achieve this

Items support additional information that can be added to them via an info attribute. This information will display on the item when the player hovers over it in a key,value pair format

Example:

RegisterCommand('addItemWithInfo', function(source, args)
    local itemName = args[1]
    if not itemName then return end
    local info = {
        uniqueData1 = 'uniqueData1',
        uniqueData2 = 'uniqueData2',
        uniqueData3 = 'uniqueData3',
        uniqueData4 = 'uniqueData4',
    }
    exports['qb-inventory']:AddItem(source, itemName, 1, false, info, 'qb-inventory:testAdd')
end, true)

RegisterCommand('editItemWithInfo', function(source)
    local Player = QBCore.Functions.GetPlayer(source)
    if not Player then return end
    local items = Player.PlayerData.items
    local itemInfo = items[1]
    print(json.encode(itemInfo, { indent = true }))
    itemInfo.info = {
        newInfo = 'New Info'
    }
    print(json.encode(itemInfo, { indent = true }))
    items[1] = itemInfo
    Player.Functions.SetPlayerData('items', items)
end, true)

LoadInventory

This function will retrieve the players inventory from the database via their unique identifier aka citizenid

exports['qb-inventory']:LoadInventory(source, citizenid)

  • source: number

  • citizenid: string

  • returns: table

RegisterCommand('getInv', function(source)

    local items = exports['qb-inventory']:LoadInventory(source, citizenid)
    print(json.encode(items, { indent = true }))
end)

SaveInventory

    print('Inventory cleared for player '..source..', excluding item: '..filterItem)
end, true)

RegisterCommand('clearInventoryExcludeItems', function(source)
    local filterItems = {'item1', 'item2'}
