Stock Keeper craftable entries API

[slava110]

Hi. I want to integrate Create Logistics system with AE and RS. However, to allow autocrafting AE patterns from Create stock keeper GUI, I'd need some kind of AE-like craftable entries in the GUI (similar to how they're displayed in AE). Basically, where all items are displayed, there are also craftable entries that you can click on to specify amount and request crafting. I think that would be nice addition to Deployer API, since you add a lot of stuff related to Create Logistics.
Besides integration with AE or RS, it would also be possible to simply allow on-demand autocrafting with Create itself without additional redstone. Or maybe with redstone, depends on implementation.
What do you think?

Hello! I am sorry to say this, but I'm kind of unfamiliar to Applied Energistics!
Are we talking about items, energy or anything else? Crafting patterns are not really implemented for any stock inventory type that is not items. With items, you can still achieve crafting patterns!
Have you tried to use LogisticsGenericManager from deployer and LogisticsManager from create? I believe you can achieve everything you need with those two classes

Sure, I'll be happy to explain. Github doesn't allow be to attach images now, for some reason, so I'll add links to images.
In most logistic mods like AE autocraft requesting works like this:

1. Open storage GUI (terminal in AE, it's just like stock keeper in Create)

2. Terminal has both existing items and craftable items shown (or in separate categories). You can click on any craftable item and this GUI will appear:

   In that GUI you can set amount of items that should be crafted
3. After that, your request will be sent and new items will be autocrafted.

So, the idea is to integrate other logistics systems with Create, so you could use Create terminal to request autocrafting from other systems and vice-versa.
The problem is that Create Stock Keeper doesn't even have concept of craftable items in GUI, AFAIK. So you can integrate autocrafting only one way - from Create to other systems. Not from other systems to Create - create won't be able to show craftable entries until they are already crafted
