Exports

Chow Drop exposes a small public API for other resources. Resource name: bs_chowdrop.

Always wait until the resource is started before calling exports.

while GetResourceState('bs_chowdrop') ~= 'started' doWait(100)end

Server exports

GetDriverData(citizenid)

Returns the driver’s database row, or nil if none exists.

local driver = exports['bs_chowdrop']:GetDriverData(citizenid)if driver thenprint(driver.name, driver.level, driver.rating, driver.total_deliveries)end

---

GetOnlineDrivers()

Returns a table of drivers currently online in the app (keyed by server id).

local online = exports['bs_chowdrop']:GetOnlineDrivers()for src, data in pairs(online) doprint(src, data.citizenid, data.name, data.level)end

Each entry:

Empty / missing key = that player is not online for deliveries.

---

GetLeaderboard()

Returns the cached leaderboard array (same data used by the app).

local board = exports['bs_chowdrop']:GetLeaderboard()for _, entry in ipairs(board) doprint(entry.rank, entry.name, entry.deliveries, entry.earnings, entry.rating, entry.level)end

Refresh interval is controlled by Config.Leaderboard.RefreshInterval.

---

ResetDriver(citizenid)

Resets a fired (or existing) driver account: clears fired flag, rating back to 5.0, XP/level to defaults, deletes rating history.

local ok = exports['bs_chowdrop']:ResetDriver(citizenid)-- true if a driver row existed and was reset; false if no account

Same behavior as the admin reset command.

---

Client exports

Call these from client scripts only (local player).

IsDriverOnline()

local online = exports['bs_chowdrop']:IsDriverOnline()-- true if this client toggled "Go Online" in the app

---

IsOnDelivery()

if exports['bs_chowdrop']:IsOnDelivery() then-- player has at least one active deliveryend

Preferred way to check if the local player is mid-delivery (supports multiple concurrent orders).

---

GetDeliveryTimeRemaining(orderId?)

Seconds remaining on the delivery timer. Pass an order id, or omit to use the first active order. Returns 0 if none.

local seconds = exports['bs_chowdrop']:GetDeliveryTimeRemaining()local secondsFor = exports['bs_chowdrop']:GetDeliveryTimeRemaining(orderId)

---

GetActiveOrder()

Intended to return the local player’s active order object (or nil).

local order = exports['bs_chowdrop']:GetActiveOrder()

For “am I delivering?” logic, use IsOnDelivery() instead — the resource tracks multiple orders internally.

---

Example integrations

Block another job while delivering

-- clientif exports['bs_chowdrop']:IsOnDelivery() thenlib.notify({ description = 'Finish your Chow Drop delivery first.', type = 'error' })returnend

Server: require min driver level

-- serverlocal citizenid = -- your framework id for sourcelocal driver = exports['bs_chowdrop']:GetDriverData(citizenid)if not driver or driver.level < 3 or driver.is_fired == 1 thenreturnend

Server: count online drivers

local n = 0for _ in pairs(exports['bs_chowdrop']:GetOnlineDrivers()) don = n + 1end

---

Notes

• Identifier: Always pass the same id Chow Drop stores (citizenid / ESX identifier). Wrong id → GetDriverData / ResetDriver return nil/false.
• No other public exports — order create, staff, payment, and admin flows are internal (lib.callback / NUI), not third-party exports.
• Do not rely on undocumented net events as a stable API; they can change with updates.
• Ensure bs_chowdrop is in your resource dependencies (or start order) if another script calls these at boot.
