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.

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.

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]
			},
		},
	},
}

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.

Hello again, and sorry, I should have stated but I am a bit new to lua, I have good experience in c++ and lsl(lyndon scripting language) but very little in lua, I would love to learn more and have been playing around a bit with it. As far as the globals I should use local for the most of then unless I need to globally access them correct?

Im sorry but I don't see a reply to me, I am trying to figure how to get the value for this part of he code:

local itemLink = blahblah -- Get your itemlink somehow

How do I get item link in that variable?

Thank you again, any help would be great.


Here is some of the code:

function TradeTalker_Broadcast()

    rString = EditBox_RecruitmentString:GetText()
    bCastTime = EditBox_BroadcastTime:GetNumber()
    bCastTimeString = tostring(bCastTime)
    TradeTalker_ClearFocus()
    if bCastTime <= 29 then
        DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage("[TradeTalker]Sorry, this is not a spamming tool. Time must be greater than 30 seconds.")
        TradeTalker_StopTimer()
    else
    DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage(string.format("%s %s %s", "[TradeTalker]Starting broadcast in ", bCastTimeString, " seconds..."))
    f:Show()
    
    -- Frame to receive OnUpdate calls
    -- last is the time since the code last executed
    -- throttle is the time to wait between executions (in seconds). This is a 1 minute delay.
    local last, throttle = 0, bCastTime
    f:SetScript('OnUpdate', function(self, elapsed)

	-- Increment the time since last update

	last = last + elapsed

	-- If the time since last execution exceeds the wait time, then broadcast a message.
    
	if last >= throttle then
		local index = GetChannelName("Trade - City") -- It finds trade is a channel at index 1
        if (index~=nil) then 
            SendChatMessage(rString, "CHANNEL", nil, index);
        end
        
		-- Reset time since last update

		last = 0

	    end

    end)
    
    end
    
end

--[[
   Shift click func.
]]--
function TradeTalkerUI:OnClick(self, button)

    local itemLink = blahblah -- Get your itemlink somehow
    local itemName = GetItemInfo(itemLink)
    if (itemLink and button == "LeftButton" and IsShiftKeyDown() and ChatFrameEditBox:IsVisible()) then
        -- Insert itemlink into chat
        ChatFrameEditBox:Insert(itemLink)
        return
    end
    if (itemLink and button == "LeftButton" and IsShiftKeyDown() and (not ChatFrameEditBox:IsVisible()) and (EditBox_RecruitmentString and EditBox_RecruitmentString:IsVisible())) then
        -- Insert itemlink into AH browse editbox
        EditBox_RecruitmentString:SetText(itemName)
        return
    end
    
end

In regards to this post http://forums.curseforge.com/showthread.php?t=10347 I also am looking for the same function but to no avail have been able to get the itemlink from chat or inventory. Any help would be great, thank you, rawroot
