# ramdb_db_fnc_set
|
|
|
|
## Description
|
|
Stores a value in the database with the specified key. This function allows saving various data types (arrays, strings, numbers, or booleans) that can be retrieved later using the key.
|
|
|
|
## Syntax
|
|
```sqf
|
|
[_key, _data] call ramdb_db_fnc_set
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Parameters
|
|
| Parameter | Type | Description | Default |
|
|
|-----------|----------------------------------|----------------------------------------------|---------|
|
|
| `_key` | String | Name of the key to store the data under | "" |
|
|
| `_data` | Array, String, Number, or Boolean| The value to store in the database | [] |
|
|
|
|
## Return Value
|
|
None. The operation runs asynchronously.
|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
### Store a simple array:
|
|
```sqf
|
|
["playerInventory", ["item1", "item2", "item3"]] call ramdb_db_fnc_set;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Store player data under their UID:
|
|
```sqf
|
|
[getPlayerUID player, [name player, getPos player, getAllGear player]] call ramdb_db_fnc_set;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Call the set function remotely from a client:
|
|
```sqf
|
|
["serverSetting", [true, 30, "normal"]] remoteExecCall ["ramdb_db_fnc_set", 2, false];
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Notes
|
|
- The function validates both the key and data before attempting to store
|
|
- If the key already exists, its value will be overwritten
|
|
- Complex data structures should be serialized into arrays
|
|
- There are no size limits for data, but extremely large values might impact performance
|
|
- For structured data, consider using hash tables instead of key-value pairs
|
