• inv_access.register_allow_access(function(player, victim)): Registers a function to check if player can access victim's inventory.
• inv_access.show_inventory(player_name, victim_name): Opens victim_name's inventory.

Example

inv_access.register_allow_access(function(player, victim)
    if minetest.check_player_privs(player, "server") then
        return true
    else
        return false
    end
end)

function inv_access.show_inventory(player_name, victim_name)
    local victim = minetest.get_player_by_name(victim_name)
    if not victim then return end
    local invname = inv_access.get_detached_inventory(victim)
    minetest.after(0, minetest.show_formspec, player_name, "inv_access",
        "size[8,10]list[detached:" .. invname ..
            ";main;0,0;8,4;]list[detached:" .. invname ..
