contextmenus.lua

These functions provide a unified way to interact with different context menu systems, such as OX and WarMenu, depending on what's available on the server.

• openMenu(Menu, data)

  • Opens a context menu using the preferred menu system.
  • Automatically selects between supported systems like OX or WarMenu based on availability.
  • The Menu parameter should be a list of menu entries, and the data parameter can be used to set headers, subtexts, and actions like onBack, onExit, and canClose.
  • Example:

    openMenu({
        { header = "Option 1", txt = "Description 1", onSelect = function() print("Option 1 selected") end },
        { header = "Option 2", txt = "Description 2", onSelect = function() print("Option 2 selected") end },
    }, {
        header = "Main Menu",
        headertxt = "Select an option",
        onBack = function() print("Return selected") end,
        onExit = function() print("Menu closed") end,
        canClose = true,
    })
    

• isOx()

  • Checks whether the OX context menu system is available on the server.
  • Allows to do specific things if ox_lib menu is in use
  • Example:

    if isOx() then
        print("OX Context Menu is available")
    end
    

• isWarMenuOpen()

  • Returns whether WarMenu is currently open.
  • Useful to prevent opening a new menu if one is already active.
  • Example:

    if not isWarMenuOpen() then
        openMenu("main_menu", menuData)
    end
    

  • Returns whether the WarMenu is currently open.
