Client Function Reference

Learn about and how to use common core client functions!

QBCore.Functions.GetPlayerData

  • Perhaps the most used function in the framework. This function returns the players data of the current source which, since its used client side, is automatically the client or player. It can be used with modifiers on the end starting with a "." (period)
function QBCore.Functions.GetPlayerData(cb)
if not cb then return QBCore.PlayerData end
cb(QBCore.PlayerData)
end
-- Example
local Player = QBCore.Functions.GetPlayerData()
print(QBCore.Debug(Player))
OR
local Player = QBCore.Functions.GetPlayerData()
local jobName = Player.job.name
print(jobName)

QBCore.Functions.GetCoords

  • This function operates very similarly to how the native GetEntityCoords does, but it returns the heading as well
function QBCore.Functions.GetCoords(entity)
return vector4(GetEntityCoords(entity), GetEntityHeading(entity))
end
-- Example
local coords = QBCore.Functions.GetCoords(PlayerPedId())
print(coords)

QBCore.Functions.HasItem

  • Returns whether a player has a certain item
function QBCore.Functions.HasItem(item)
local p = promise.new()
QBCore.Functions.TriggerCallback('QBCore:HasItem', function(result)
p:resolve(result)
end, item)
return Citizen.Await(p)
end
-- Example
local hasItem = QBCore.Functions.HasItem('my_cool_item')
print(hasItem)

QBCore.Functions.Notify

Arguments
Type
Required
Default
message
string | table
yes
'Placeholder'
type
string
yes
'primary'
length
number
yes
5000
function QBCore.Functions.Notify(text, textype, length)
if type(text) == "table" then
local ttext = text.text or 'Placeholder'
local caption = text.caption or 'Placeholder'
local ttype = textype or 'primary'
local length = length or 5000
SendNUIMessage({
type = ttype,
length = length,
text = ttext,
caption = caption
})
else
local ttype = textype or 'primary'
local length = length or 5000
SendNUIMessage({
type = ttype,
length = length,
text = text
})
end
end
-- Example
QBCore.Functions.Notify('This is a test', 'success', 5000)
QBCore.Functions.Notify({text = 'Test', caption = 'Test Caption'}, 'police', 5000)

QBCore.Functions.TriggerCallback

  • Function used to call from the client to the server and receive a value back
function QBCore.Functions.TriggerCallback(name, cb, ...)
QBCore.ServerCallbacks[name] = cb
TriggerServerEvent('QBCore:Server:TriggerCallback', name, ...)
end
-- Example
QBCore.Functions.TriggerCallback('callbackName', function(result)
print('I got this from the CreateCallBack --> '..result)
end, 'my_parameter_name')

QBCore.Functions.Progressbar

  • Wrapper for progressbar export
function QBCore.Functions.Progressbar(name, label, duration, useWhileDead, canCancel, disableControls, animation, prop, propTwo, onFinish, onCancel)
exports['progressbar']:Progress({
name = name:lower(),
duration = duration,
label = label,
useWhileDead = useWhileDead,
canCancel = canCancel,
controlDisables = disableControls,
animation = animation,
prop = prop,
propTwo = propTwo,
}, function(cancelled)
if not cancelled then
if onFinish then
onFinish()
end
else
if onCancel then
onCancel()
end
end
end)
end
-- Available parameters to be called
local Action = {
name = "",
duration = 0,
label = "",
useWhileDead = false,
canCancel = true,
disarm = true,
controlDisables = {
disableMovement = false,
disableCarMovement = false,
disableMouse = false,

},
animation = {
animDict = nil,
anim = nil,
flags = 0,
task = nil,
},
prop = {
model = nil,
bone = nil,
coords = { x = 0.0, y = 0.0, z = 0.0 },
rotation = { x = 0.0, y = 0.0, z = 0.0 },
},
propTwo = {
model = nil,
bone = nil,
coords = { x = 0.0, y = 0.0, z = 0.0 },
rotation = { x = 0.0, y = 0.0, z = 0.0 },
},
}
-- Example
QBCore.Functions.Progressbar('Changeme', 'What the player sees', 1500, false, true, {
disableMovement = true,
disableCarMovement = true,
