# Newspaper script for QBCore
Note that this is no longer maintained and will not receive any updates/fixes.

[![CodeFactor](https://www.codefactor.io/repository/github/xfutte/futte-newspaper/badge)](https://www.codefactor.io/repository/github/xfutte/futte-newspaper)

This newspaper resource will add a newspaper functionality to your beautiful QBCore FiveM server.

This resource supports:

- Buying a newspaper at a newspaper stand
- Viewing news
- Writing, updating & deleting news as a news reporter
- Previewing a story before publishing it
- Display of prison sentences when someone gets sent to jail
- Easy configuration

I'll offer support in **[my Discord server](https://discord.gg/R7MMSsZJ8r)**.

## Dependencies
- qb-target
- qb-inventory
- oxmysql

## Implementation
1. Run the attached import.sql file in the database.
2. Add the following to the `police:server:JailPlayer` event 
```lua
local name = OtherPlayer.PlayerData.charinfo.firstname.." "..OtherPlayer.PlayerData.charinfo.lastname
exports['futte-newspaper']:CreateJailStory(name, time)
```
after the line
```lua
if not Player or not OtherPlayer or Player.PlayerData.job.name ~= "police" then return end
```
3. Add the newspaper.png image into your qb-inventory folder, where all the other images are located (located in the root of the repo).
4. Add following to either your shared.lua or items.lua file based on what version of qb-core you have installed:
```lua
['newspaper'] = {['name'] = 'newspaper', ['label'] = 'Newspaper', ['weight'] = 10, ['type'] = 'item', ['image'] = 'newspaper.png', ['unique'] = false , ['useable'] = true, ['shouldClose'] = true, ['combinable'] = nil, ['description'] = 'Los Santos Newspaper'},
```
---

### Pickle Prison support
if you use [Pickle Prison](https://github.com/PickleModifications/pickle_prisons), navigate to `pickle_prisons\modules\prison\server.lua`
search for 
```lua
function JailPlayer(source, time, index, noSave)
```
and replace that whole function with this one
```lua
function JailPlayer(source, time, index, noSave)
    local Player = QBCore.Functions.GetPlayer(source)
    local name = Player.PlayerData.charinfo.firstname.." "..Player.PlayerData.charinfo.lastname
    if Prisoners[source] then return end
    local index = index or "default"
    local prison = Config.Prisons[index]
    if not time or not prison then return end
    local identifier = GetIdentifier(source)
    Prisoners[source] = {
        identifier = identifier,
        index = index,
        time = time,
        inventory = TakeInventory(source),
        sentence_date = os.time(),
    }
    SetPlayerMetadata(source, "injail", time)
    exports['futte-newspaper']:CreateJailStory(name, time)
    TriggerClientEvent("pickle_prisons:jailPlayer", source, Prisoners[source])
    if noSave then return end
    MySQL.Async.execute("DELETE FROM pickle_prisons WHERE identifier=@identifier;", {["@identifier"] = identifier})
    MySQL.Async.execute("INSERT INTO pickle_prisons (identifier, prison, time, inventory, sentence_date) VALUES (@identifier, @prison, @time, @inventory, @sentence_date);", {
        ["@identifier"] = Prisoners[source].identifier,
        ["@prison"] = Prisoners[source].index,
        ["@time"] = Prisoners[source].time,
        ["@inventory"] = json.encode(Prisoners[source].inventory),
        ["@sentence_date"] = Prisoners[source].sentence_date,
    })
end
```

:bulb: Initially there will be a "Welcome.." story. As soon as you add your first story the "Welcome.." story will delete itself.

## Development

1. Navigate to ./web in a command prompt and run `npm install` to install all dependencies. If you don't already have node.js installed, you can [download it here](https://nodejs.org/en/download/).'
2. Run `npm run dev` in ./web to compile the GUI.

:bulb: When you are done working with the resource run `npm run build` to minify and uglify the resource to decrease the resource size.

## Configuration

There are quite a lot of configurations possible out-of-the-box. These consists of two files: `config.js` and `config.lua`.

**Config.js**
```js
export const Config = {
	newspaperTitle: 'Los Santos Newspaper',

	},
	// Set this to a custom year for the publish year if needed. Otherwise it will use the current date
	customYear: undefined,
	publishArticleControls: [
		['bold', 'italic', 'underline', 'strike'],
		['blockquote', 'image'],
		[{ list: 'ordered' }, { list: 'bullet' }],
	],
	// Remember to align this with QBShared.Jobs in either shared.lua or jobs.lua (based on what version of qb-core you are using)
	reporter: [

```

**Config.lua**
```lua
