How does one modify an inventory item on the server?

[multox]

I'm having trouble writing a change to an item in a player's inventory on the server.  Although I've found the object and changed the property that I want changed nothing appears different.  I suspect that I'm missing a key step but not sure what.  Any hints?

 

function onMarkTrashPressedServer(enabledMaterials, selectedRarities)
if onClient() then return end

local itemsMarked = 0
local inv = Player(callingPlayer):getInventory():getItems()

    for index, slotItem in pairs(inv) do
        local iitem = slotItem.item
        if ((iitem == nil) or iitem.trash or iitem.favorite) then goto continue end

        local item = SellableInventoryItem(iitem, index, buyer)
	local name = Rarity(item.rarity.value).name .. " " .. Material(item:getMaterial()).name .. " " ..item:getName()
	local material = Material(item:getMaterial()).value
	local rarity = Rarity(item.rarity.value).value

	if (enabledMaterials[material]) then
		local selectedMaxRarity = selectedRarities[material]
		if (rarity <= selectedMaxRarity) then
			--print("Trashing " .. name)
			iitem.trash = 1
			inv[index] = iitem  ???? <---- What needs to be done here to save the trash change?
			itemsMarked = itemsMarked + 1
		end
	end

        ::continue::
    end

Player(callingPlayer):sendChatMessage("Server", 0, itemsMarked .. " items have been marked as trash.")
end

you need to remove/add to the inventory object not the item object.

 

local inv = Player(callingPlayer):getInventory()

for index, slotItem in pairs(inv:getItems()) do
  local iitem = slotItem.item
  inv:remove(index)
  iitem.trash = 1
  slotItem.item = iitem
  inv:add(slotItem,index)
end

 

Untested, but this should help yopu get close to what ya want to achieve
