Bot inventory sorting

Personal bot inventory browser sorting is now available. You canĀ sort inventory in two ways:

  • by creation date (default, like viewer does)
  • by name

The sorting is saved so you can stick to your favorite mode. Inventory folders are always sorted by name (there’s no info on creation date available from SL).

HTTP API commands added and updated

HTTP API updates: control your Second Life botSmartBots HTTP API functions have been extended by adding the new functionality.

listinventory – retrieve the bot’s inventory contents

listinventory command allows listing the bot’s inventory: items, wearables, folders. Now this command shows the object’s permissions. More information available in docs.

give_inventory command improved

give_inventory command sends inventory items to a specific resident. Now it is possible to send the whole folders (just specify the folder inventory UUID – system determines the inventory item type automatically).

Also, the error handling has been improved: the function now returns an error if object permissions do not contain a ‘Transfer” flag.

These changes are published already, you may use them in your applications or try HTTP API by using SmartBots API Testing Suite.

  • wear and take off clothes
  • attach objects
  • change inventory objects’ permissions

This is just a first step to fully-functional inventory manager: we will add animation support, delivery and other features soon.
