Jacob Schmidt 8c0e8144e5 docs: Update documentation links and function references
This commit updates the documentation to reflect the current function names and link structure. Specifically, it addresses the following:

*   Corrected internal links within the documentation to point to the correct markdown files (e.g., `hashDelete.md` instead of `hashDelete`).
*   Updated related function references to reflect the current function names and include missing functions.
*   Removed outdated function references.
*   Added `ramdb_db_fnc_scheduler` to related functions where appropriate.
*   Updated the links section to use the correct markdown file names.

ArmaRAMDb - Set Key mdi:file-text-outline Set the value of stored key from RAMDb.

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

[_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:

["playerInventory", ["item1", "item2", "item3"]] call ramdb_db_fnc_set;

Store player data under their UID:

[getPlayerUID player, [name player, getPos player, getAllGear player]] call ramdb_db_fnc_set;

Call the set function remotely from a client:

["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
  • ramdb_db_fnc_get: Retrieves a value by key
  • ramdb_db_fnc_delete: Removes a value by key
  • ramdb_db_fnc_scheduler: Processes the callback response
