excerpt: Get a field value from the current client's hash table in RAMDb.
ramdb_db_fnc_hashGet
Description Retrieves the value associated with a specific field in the hash table of the current client/player. This function automatically determines the appropriate hash ID based on the caller's identity, making it more convenient than hashGetId which requires manually specifying an ID. It accesses hash data asynchronously and returns the result through a callback function.
Syntax [_keyField, _function, _call, _netId] call ramdb_db_fnc_hashGet
Parameters Parameter Type Description Default _keyField String Name of the field in the hash to retrieve "" _function String Name of the function to receive the retrieved data "" _call Boolean Whether to call the function directly (true) or spawn (false) false _netId String (Optional) NetID of the player to receive the data ""
Return Value None. The retrieved data is passed to the specified callback function asynchronously.
Examples
Retrieve a player's loadout: ["loadout", "ramdb_db_fnc_test"] call ramdb_db_fnc_hashGet;
Retrieve data with synchronous callback: ["playerScore", "ramdb_db_fnc_processScore", true] call ramdb_db_fnc_hashGet;
Retrieve data and send it to a specific client: ["loadout", "ramdb_db_fnc_test", false, netId player] remoteExecCall ["ramdb_db_fnc_hashGet", 2, false];
Notes Retrieves a value from the current client's hash table The data is retrieved asynchronously through the extension's callback system Both the field name and callback function name must be provided Input validation ensures both required parameters are non-empty When a netId is provided, the data is sent to that specific client The _call parameter determines whether the function is called directly (synchronous) or spawned (asynchronous) This function automatically determines which hash table to use based on the caller's identity Use hashGetId when you need to specify a particular hash table by ID All operations are logged for debugging purposes
