Available since Server 1.0.0, Client 1.0.0
void exportFunction(string name, function Function)
The exportFunction function is used to export a function so it can be used in other resources.
Parameters
| 1) | string | name | The name of the exported function. |
| 2) | function | Function | The function to export. |
Return
| void | This function doesn't return a value. |
Notes
- To use this function in another resource, use findResourceByName in the other resource, which returns a resource object. You can then use resource.exports or resource.getExport to access exported functions.
- Only simple types (string, number, boolean, null) are guaranteed to work across resource boundaries. Passing compound types (objects, arrays, tables) is discouraged — depending on the language combination involved, this may cause crashes or undefined behaviour. If structured data must be passed, serialize it to a JSON string before the call and deserialize on the receiving side.
Examples
Example 1 - JavaScript:
bindEventHandler("OnResourceStart", thisResource, function(event, resource) {
exportFunction("testFunc", testFunc);
});
function testFunc(foo, bar) {
return true;
}
