getting item's name - can you help for my borken program

i want to write a program for automated draconic heart. i want to send required items from turtle to the chest. program have to do send specific number of these items.

here is the code.

local d = {}
local q = {}
local i = 1
local glow = 0
local quartz = 0
local dia = 0
local drac = 0
local res = 0

turtle.select(1)

while i < 6 do
	
turtle.select(i)
	
d[i] = turtle.getItemDetail(i)
	
q[i] = turtle.getItemCount(i)
	
print("",d[i].name)
	
print("",q[i])
	
i = i + 1
end

function find()
		
if d[i].name == minecraft.glowstone then
		  
   i = glow
		
elseif
		  
   d[i].name == minecraft.quartz_block then
		  
   i = quartz
		
elseif
		  
   d[i].name == minecraft.diamond_block then
		  
   i = dia
		
elseif
		  
   d[i].name == DraconicEvolution.draconium then
		  
   i = 1
		  
while i < 6 and d[i].name == DraconicEvolution.draconium do
				
	  if q[i] < q[i+1] then
					
		 i = res
				
	  else
					
		 i = drac
				
	  end  
		  
end
		
end
find()
print(""..glow)
print(""..quartz)
print(""..dia)
print(""..res)
print(""..drac)
		  

i tried to get items' details and i send to their name's to the variable "d". then compared their name's with all 5 items in "find" function. program giving me items' name and quantity. but it give me error in find() function. i don't know lua very much. i think it is about char - string thing. i could not figure out. i hope you guys give me some help. :)/>

And the error says….?

I would assume "attempt to index ? (a nil value)".

He should be using the string version of "minecraft:glowstone", not minecraft.glowstone. The same applies to all other names in the code.

yes it was the error.

when i used

if d[i].name == minecraft:glowstone then
   i = glow
elseif
...
  
end

it said "…then required"

i think i tried with quotes but i gave me error again. i am not sure so i will try will quotes again like "minecraft:glowstone"

i tried with quotes like "minecraft:glowstone" but it gave me same error for same line. which is right under function find() line. i can print item's name with "d.name" but i can not compare item's name with it.

edit:

this time it worked. :)/> yes you were right "minecraft:glowstone" sitatution. the problem was about one variable which i can not remember which it is right now. :)/>

i put code here. but it has not finished yet. maybe someone use it or develope more. it has not finished yet.

local d = {}
local q = {}
local i = 1
local glow = 0
local qua = 0
local dia = 0

local rs = --(which direction you pull redstone signal for activating ritual via fake player)
local act = --(activitaion signal for ritual. you can use level emiter+crafting card for it)
--turtle drops items to up. so you have to need chest there. then you can send the items builder.

os.pullEvent(redstone.getInput(act))

rs.setOutput(rs)
sleep(wait)

while true do --program checks every time quantities of item. so when there is no item in its slot program will be end.
