Get currency type inside container?

[Toirealach]

local itemType, specializedItemType = GetItemLinkItemType(itemLink)

I know I can call GetItemLinkItemType() to determine that an item is a container and that its specialized type is a currency container, but is there any way for me to know which CurrencyType that the currency container actually contains?

Not that I know off.

In the past I added a maximum Tel'Var check into an addon and I had searched (years ago though) for the same and ended in a list of Tel'Var containing container's itemIds so I could get the itemId from the itemlink and see if the item is such a Tel'Var container.

local curtType = {
    CURT_MONEY,
    CURT_TELVAR_STONES,
    CURT_ALLIANCE_POINTS,
    CURT_UNDAUNTED_KEYS,
    CURT_WRIT_VOUCHERS,
    CURT_EVENT_TICKETS,
    CURT_ARCHIVAL_FORTUNES
}

for _, curt in ipairs(curtType) do
    local unowned, _ = GetLootCurrency(curt)
    if (unowned > 0) then
            d(GetString(GetCurrencyName(curt, false, true) .. ": " .. unowned)
    end
end

You may only be able to do the corresponding check after opening the container. Add any currency type you need to the curtType

Thanks, I guess I'll add to the wishlist then...

If GetItemLinkItemType() returns an ItemType of ITEMTYPE_CONTAINER_CURRENCY then the SpecializedItemType which the function returns should tell us which currency is in the container, e.g.:

SPECIALIZED_ITEMTYPE_CONTAINER_CURRENCY_MONEY
SPECIALIZED_ITEMTYPE_CONTAINER_CURRENCY_CHAOTIC_CREATIA
SPECIALIZED_ITEMTYPE_CONTAINER_CURRENCY_TELVAR_STONES

etc. for any all types of currency containers that exist in game.
