 owner = false,
 owned = false,
 items = {
 [1] = { ... },
 [2] = { ... }
 }
}
```

exports.nord_inventory:GetInventories(type?, detailed?)
exports.nord_inventory:GetInventoryItems(target, owner?)
exports.nord_inventory:GetSlot(target, slot)
exports.nord_inventory:GetEmptySlot(target)
exports.nord_inventory:GetSlotForItem(target, itemName, metadata?)
```

## Item lookup helpers

```lua
exports.nord_inventory:GetSlotWithItem(target, itemName, metadata?, strict?)
exports.nord_inventory:GetSlotsWithItem(target, itemName, metadata?, strict?)
exports.nord_inventory:GetSlotIdWithItem(target, itemName, metadata?, strict?)
exports.nord_inventory:GetSlotIdsWithItem(target, itemName, metadata?, strict?)
exports.nord_inventory:GetItemCount(target, itemName, metadata?, strict?)
exports.nord_inventory:GetItemSlots(target, itemName, metadata?)
exports.nord_inventory:GetItem(target, itemName, metadata?, returnsCount?)
```

## Search

```lua
local count = exports.nord_inventory:Search(source, 'count', 'water')
local slots = exports.nord_inventory:Search(source, 'slots', 'water')
```

Alias:

```lua
exports.nord_inventory:SearchInventory(...)
```

Multiple item names can be passed as a table. The result then becomes a table keyed by item name.
