Shared

A table containing cached function results, which may be constants or infrequently changed.

Default values

• resource: string
  • the value returned by GetCurrentResourceName (opens in a new tab).
• game: 'fxserver' | 'fivem' | 'redm'
  • the value returned by GetGameName (opens in a new tab).

Adding new cached values

Values can be cached permanently, or added with a timeout.

cache(key, func, timeout)

• key: string
  • a unique name to store and access the cached state.
• func: function
  • a function to call when the cache is invalidated/empty.
• timeout?: number
  • a timer in milliseconds to clear the cached state.

local i = 0
 
while true do
    Wait(1000)
    i += 1
 
    print(cache('test', function() return i end, 5000))
end
