Modules

Summary

Modules are extensions that provide scripting resources and functionality that isn't provided in the default server. Modules also have the ability to include 3rd party libraries (such as MySQL).

Module SDK

The module SDK for GTA Connected is known as "GalacticC" ... It's a C library that provides all the necessary functions to create classes, namespaces, functions, and properties to use in your server resources.

How to Create

First, you'll need to either create the module source yourself or find one that already exists. Grab the sample module download, compile the module source (be sure to include GalacticC as a header!) and if all goes well, you should end up with a DLL file corresponding to the project name in Visual Studio.

Resources

Once the module is loaded, all namespaces, classes, functions and properties it provides are available to use in scripting resources. Each module will have it's own namespace inside the module namespace. For example, if your module's namespace is "mysql" and you have a "connect" function within that namespace, then the syntax within scripting would be "module.mysql.connect()"
