Describe

Sorry, I found another one...

Using getItem() with only item name as parameter works well but under one condition : when i take the last stack of an item from the ME (so there's no more of it) and then try to getItem() by name, I get a java exception thrown at me that stops execution. Expected is an empty return i think ?

• Doing the same with the same item, keeping one in ME works.
• Doing the same with other items (still presents in ME) works.
• Doing the same with another item, removing it from ME, does the same.
• Doing the same with a random string (ie. an unknown item) works.

It seems only referenced, but absent items are affected.

I get the name from another inventory so i'm sure it's valid.

currentseed = reprocessor.getItemDetail(1)
if (currentseed) then
	print(currentseed.name)
	availibleseed = bridge.getItem({name=currentseed.name})

Steps to reproduce

1. Put any number of items in ME
2. Remove them
3. Try to call getItem() on an ME bridge with given item name as filter

Multiplayer?

You're using the filter wrong
name needs to be an string, so you need to wrap it in parentheses

EDIT: I assume this is a var?

another edit...
Nvm, didn't read the whole thing. I'm sorry for that

Do you have a log for me?

Could you test this version?
Unzip the file before using it

Yes it's a variable, I don't get what you mean with the parenthesis but you must be right, i got it working like this
availibleseed = bridge.getItem({name=textutils.serialize(currentseed.name)})
This return a null value.

And sure, here it is.

Nope, sorry, it returns a null item even with something in ME :(

That's what I meant with the edit. I thought you're just inputting a string without the quotation marks(I'm a bit tired and wrote parentheses instead of quotation marks...)

Thank you for the log, I'll look into that

Thank you

ok. Doesn't matter, i'll check for both.

Thanks again for the quick fix !

Much better, no exception, and retruns an empty table/object.
Shouldn't you return nil though ? That's what i get with a random/bad item name.

Not sure tbh. In some places it's an empty table, in some places it's nil
I decided to use empty tables, but ig nil would be better

That's a thing I want to improve in 0.8

If anyone needs a workaround, you can use pcall which is a bit like you would catch a exception in java.

local function  getItem(id)
    local ok, data = pcall(storage.getItem, {name = id})
    -- if the data is nil, return an table with a zero amount
    if not data then
       return {name = id, amount = 0}
    end
end

local cobblestone = getItem("minecraft:cobblestone")
print(cobblestone.amount)
