Hey guys, I am building a small project that is requiring me to store an array for later use. I am storing the array as follows.

local options1 = {
	name = L["OxyAddon Setup"],
	type = "group",
	handler = OxyAddon,
	get = function(item) return OxyAddon.db.profile[item[#item]] end,
	set = function(item, value) OxyAddon.db.profile[item[#item]] = value end,
	args = {
		GroundMount = {
			type = "input",
			name = L["Ground Mounts Label"],
			desc = L["Ground Mounts Desc"],
			usage = L["Ground Mounts Usage"],
			order = 1,
			width = "full",
			get = "GetGroundMounts",
			set = "SetGroundMounts",
		},


unction OxyAddon:GetGroundMounts(info)
	self.string = ""
	for index,value in ipairs(self.db.profile.GroundMount) do
		self.string = self.string..value..";"
	end
	return self.string
end

function OxyAddon:SetGroundMounts(info, newValue)
	self.db.profile.GroundMount = { strsplit(";", newValue) }
end

When I run this it returns a hex number or similar, but mot the actual data I have entered.

print(self.db.profile.GroundMount)

Question is How do I store a array in the acedb and or fetch it for later use.


Thank you, Any help would be great.

It is a number, it would be like 1,2,3

The Database contents look like this.

OxyAddonDB = {
	["profileKeys"] = {
		["Milfanated - Shandris"] = "Default",
	},
	["profiles"] = {
		["Default"] = {
			["GroundMount"] = {
				"2,3,4", -- [1]
			},
		},
	},
}

In short I am trying to make a random mount caster
for all the dif type of area, ground, flying, and sea. I want to store the numbers of the mount ex. out of 12 on each page using the numbers say 3 are flyers, number 2 across, number 5 across and so on, would look like 2,5,...
I was using the options and acedb so i could have diff profiles for each toon. you would go into interface>addons tab and select my addon in txt boxes were numbers 2,5,... for ground mounts, and in the flying mounts was 1,3,... what ever the numbers are will randomly choose a mount and cast.

Thanks! Any help is great.

This is my set:

set = function(item, value) OxyAddon.db.profile[item[#item]] = value end,

This is my set function:

function OxyAddon:SetGroundMounts(info, newValue)
	self.db.profile.GroundMount = { strsplit(";", newValue) }
end

This is my get:

get = function(item) return OxyAddon.db.profile[item[#item]] end,

This is my get function:

function OxyAddon:GetGroundMounts(info)
	self.string = ""
	for index,value in ipairs(self.db.profile.GroundMount) do
		self.string = self.string..value..";"
	end
	return self.string
end

Any help would be great, thanks again guys.

Yes, it is. The get function in an AceOptions table receives the options node as the first parameter. It's usually referred to as info rather than item, but the name assigned to the variable does not affect its contents.
