[HELP] Output accounts by AccountData

[knightscript]

Hello, I have a doubt, i would like to know if there is a way to output the account name of all accounts that have for example the AccountData "admin", if there is a way what functions should I use, thanks!

[tosfera]

use GetAccounts to get the accounts, after that loop over the accounts with a simple; "for i = 1, #var", use getAccountData to see if the player has that data.

[knightscript]

Thanks @tosfera, one more question, is there a way to set an account data of an account that is offline? this is what I am trying:

local offlineacc = getAccount(online) 
local antihead = setAccountData( offlineacc, "antiheadshot", "on" ) 
local antiheadexpire = setAccountData( offlineacc, "antiheadexpira", ending) 

but i think the problem is I need to write the password in, and I dont have that, thanks

EDIT: just checked out "password" is an optional argument, but I am getting this error on debugscript:

[12:40:30] WARNING: [gameplay]/headshot/vipantiheadshot.lua:15: Bad argument @ ' 
setAccountData' [Expected account at argument 1, got boolean] 

LINE 15:

local antiheadexpire = setAccountData( offlineacc, "antiheadexpira", ending) 

EDIT: fixed it, i was passing the wrong variable, in getAccount, thanks!.

Hello, going back to the output thing, I have never used "FOR" before, I´ve searched on google but haven´t found anything, can you give me a small example or a usage tutorial? thanks.

EDIT: Found this tutorial: https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/GetAllElementData gonna adapt it to what I need, thanks

it's quite simple;

  
local allAccounts = getAccounts(); 
for i = 1, do 
    -- you can simply say getAccountData ( allAccounts [ i ], "key" ); 
end 

[knightscript]

Thanks tosfera, one last thing, this is my code:

function printAllData ( thePlayer ) 
local allAccounts = getAccounts(); 
for i = 1,#allAccounts do 
    local account = getAccountName( allAccounts[i] ) 
    local text = getAccountData (allAccounts[i], "antiheadshot" ); 
    outputChatBox("ACCOUNT: "..account.."RESULT: "..text) 
end 
end 
addCommandHandler( "getall", printAllData )  

I would like to show the account that has the account data, this shows the first entry but it gives me an error on debugscript:

[13:17:55] ERROR: [gameplay]/headshot/vipantiheadshot.lua:33: attempt to concate 
nate local 'text' (a boolean value) 
  

Thanks!.

EDIT: It was happening because an account doesnt have that accountdata, is there a way to skip it or just show N/A for example? thanks!.

EDIT: Fixed it, hahaha, i just added an else, which shows N/A instead of the result of the local "text", here is my full code for someone that needs it:

function printAllData ( thePlayer ) 
local allAccounts = getAccounts(); 
for i = 1,#allAccounts do 
    local account = getAccountName( allAccounts[i] ) 
    local text = getAccountData (allAccounts[i], "antiheadexpira" ); 
    if (text) then  
    outputChatBox("cuenta: "..account.."TEXTO: "..text) 
    else 
        outputChatBox("cuenta: "..account.."TEXTO: N/A") 
    end 
end 
end 
addCommandHandler( "getall", printAllData ) 

[tosfera]

You can do that with a ternary statement. That'll keep it smaller, like so;

outputChatBox ( "cuenta: ".. account .." TEXTO: ".. ( text and text or "N/A" ) ) 

This actually says;

if ( text ) then text or "N/A". So, if the text isn't false ( so it has some data ), it'll add the text after that outputchatbox. Else it'll add "N/A".
