Configure Your Resource

QBCore

To use this resource with QBCore Framework. Go to a5-policecams/Shared/sh_config.lua and set the framework to qb

a5-policecams/Shared/sh_config.lua

Shared.Framework = 'qb' -- ['qb'] ['esx'] ['custom']

If you are using Old QBCore without the export. You can enable the option in a5-policecams/Shared/sh_config.lua

a5-policecams/Shared/sh_config.lua

Shared.UseOldQB = false -- if you want to use old method of calling core and not the export
Shared.OldQbTrigger = "QBCore:GetObject"

You can also edit the getcoreobject function if you renamed your core by going to a5-policecams/server/sv_main.lua and a5-policecams/client/cl_cams.lua and editing the function

a5-policehub/server/sv_main.lua

CreateThread(function()
    if Shared.Framework == "qb" then
        if Shared.UseOldQB then
            TriggerEvent(Shared.OldQbTrigger, function(obj) QBCore = obj end)
        else
            QBCore = exports['qb-core']:GetCoreObject()
        end
        print("Loaded QBCore Policecams")
    elseif Shared.Framework == "esx" then
        if Shared.UseOldESX then
            TriggerEvent(Shared.OldESXTrigger, function(obj) ESX = obj end)
        else
            ESX = exports['es_extended']:getSharedObject()
        end
        print("Loaded ESX PoliceCams")
    else
        print("Framework Not Supported")
    end
end)

If you are using Old ESX without the export. You can enable the option in a5-policecams/Shared/sh_config.lua

a5-policecams/Shared/sh_config.lua

Shared.UseOldESX = false -- if you want to use old method of calling core and not the export

a5-policehub/server/sv_hub.lua

CreateThread(function()
    if Shared.Framework == "qb" then
        if Shared.UseOldQB then
            TriggerEvent(Shared.OldQbTrigger, function(obj) QBCore = obj end)
        else
            QBCore = exports['qb-core']:GetCoreObject()
        end
        Debug("Loaded QBCore Policehub")
    elseif Shared.Framework == "esx" then
        if Shared.UseOldESX then
            TriggerEvent(Shared.OldESXTrigger, function(obj) ESX = obj end)
        else
            ESX = exports['es_extended']:getSharedObject()
