How do I craft a given item from lua?

[Mythbrion]

Hi there,
Just trying to find the method that is called when you click an item to craft.
I realise there is an insert command to place an item in the player's inventory, but I would like to be able to have an item begin crafting on a condition set in a mod.
Hoping there is a simple 'player.craft(itemname, quantity)' style solution, but I couldn't find the code to do it.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you.

No one has any info?
Is this something we don't have access to from code?
Any information welcome, or perhaps a work around to emulate crafting an item, taking out mats, waiting a time, then inserting the desired item perhaps.
Messy but might work if there is no way to trigger a player to craft.

You can find all the methods that modify a player here. By the looks of it it doeesn't look like it's possible to force a player to craft something. You can ask the devs to make it possible by making a post about it here.

Thank you very much! I will make a topic requesting it there.
