Crafting something but don't know where you've put your iron? This is a small mod to show you where items are in nearby inventories, like Extra Utilities 2's old feature. Needs to be installed on both the server and client.
A client-only version of the mod is available here, inspired by HenneGamer's ChestCounter mod.
Usage
Hover over an item in your inventory or REI, and press the keybind (default "Y") to find all stacks of that item in nearly inventories. You can also hold shift to also match the item's NBT, useful for favouriting your best pickaxe in REI to find later. The mod is highly configurable, ranging from visual options to server-side range and rate-limiting options if wanted.
Can't get it to work on 1.16.1 server. The plugin is loaded on server and on client, but pressing the hotkey only closes the inventory and then shows nothing.

Okay, it's because of shaders. The outline does not show when using OptiFine with a shader active.
In reply to dienes_16:
I'll have a look when I can about that.
please make it clientside
In reply to pawlisssssimo:
I would also like to see this client-side :)

it'd be cool if you could add a way to store chest items in the client cache so you can use it on non-modded servers
Were you able to make it client side only? No server side required?
Also, if you have a shulker inside a chest, could you query the shulker as well?
In reply to criticalkosh:
1: That would be better suited for a seperate mod; this one is more for accurate results from the server.
2: I'll add it to the TODO list once 1.16 comes out.
Requires Fabric API 0.8.2, which I can't find?
Nvm, It need the loader
Does this work clientside only on multiplayer servers?
In reply to Aliysium:
Nope, the inventories are stored on the server, so there's no effective way to do this.

Chestcounter does it, though it only knows what you saw last. It has a search function though which would be a great addition to this mod.
In reply to SuprRonin:
Oh, that's an interesting way to do it. I'll see, though I kind of want to keep the mod simple in functionality.
In reply to JackFred2:
Yeah I checked your mod and it works with REI so it doesn't need a search function. But multiplayer support would be great. Eitheir way thanks for making such a nice mod :)
In reply to SuprRonin:
Oh this is cool. Hopefully this can get implemented here as there is no Fabric for Chest Counter.
Do you have any plans to port this onto 1.15.2? This is a good port of the forge version.
In reply to lightningsushi:
No plans right now, but I'll have a look.
Edit: Initial release out, wasn't too difficult.
