Custom Framework

If you are using a framework other than QBox, QBCore, or ESX, you can still use the Billing System by implementing the Bridge API.

Implementation Steps

1. Set Config

In your config.lua, set the framework to 'custom':

Config.Framework = 'custom'

2. Client-Side Bridge (bridge/client.lua)

Open bridge/client.lua and locate the elseif fw == 'custom' then blocks. You need to implement the following functions:

• GetPlayerData(): Should return a table with player information.

• Notify(msg, type): Your framework's notification function.

• GetNearbyPlayers(): (Optional) If your framework has a specific way to get nearby players.

-- Example Client implementation
elseif fw == 'custom' then
    function Bridge.GetPlayerData()
        return exports['my-core']:GetPlayerData()
    end

    function Bridge.Notify(msg, type)
        exports['my-notifications']:Show(msg, type)
    end
end

3. Server-Side Bridge (bridge/server.lua)

Open bridge/server.lua and implement the core logic for money and player handling:

• GetPlayer(source): Return your framework's player object.

• GetPlayerBank(source): Return player's bank balance.

• GetPlayerCash(source): Return player's cash balance.

• RemoveMoney(source, amount, type): CRITICAL - Deduct money and return boolean.

• AddMoney(source, amount, type): Add money to a player.

-- Example Server implementation
elseif fw == 'custom' then
    function Bridge.GetPlayer(source)
        return exports['my-core']:GetPlayer(source)
    end

    function Bridge.RemoveMoney(source, amount, type)
        local player = Bridge.GetPlayer(source)
        if player.money >= amount then
            player.removeMoney(amount, type)
            return true
        end
        return false
    end
end

4. Shared Bridge (bridge/shared.lua)

Ensure your framework detection logic is added to bridge/shared.lua if you want it to be auto-detected, or just rely on the manual 'custom' setting.

Required Return Formats

Player Data

{
    identifier = "string",
    name = "string",
    job = {
        name = "string",
        label = "string",
        grade = number,
        isBoss = boolean
    }
}

Money Functions

• RemoveMoney MUST return true if deduction was successful, and false otherwise. This is vital for preventing payment exploits.

Testing Your Implementation

1. Verify Startup: Check the console for [Billing Bridge] Framework set to: custom.

2. Verify Job Check: Ensure you can open the tablet with an allowed job.

3. Verify Money:

   • Try to pay with not enough money (should fail).

   • Try to pay with enough money (should succeed and deduct).

4. Verify Notifications: Success/Error messages should appear using your framework's UI.

Security Warning: Never trust client-side data for money transactions. Always perform the final check and deduction on the server side within the bridge.
