Log

[dugasz1]

Hello!

I would like to log a lot of things (damage, money transfer, how kills how etc.) So a lot.(Only for a weak or two after it would be deleted) What would be the fastes way to log which don't use much performance?

To be frank with you, I've never worked with file opening, closing, editing or anthing like that.. But I pieced together this. I have no idea if it works or not, but it does make sense . Good luck bro. (You need to name the resource "logs" - without quotes - or else it wont work)

function logStart() 
    if fileExists((":%s/%s"):format("logs","log.txt")) then 
        for _,plr in ipairs(getElementsByType("player")) do 
            local file = fileOpen("log.txt") 
            fileWrite(file,getPlayerName(plr).." - Health: "..getElementHealth(plr).."\n\r") 
            fileClose(file) 
        end 
    else 
        local file = fileCreate("log.txt") 
    end 
    setTimer(logStart,5000,0) 
end 
addEventHandler("onResourceStart",getRootElement(),logStart)

Thank you man But my question was which way request the minimum preformance? But i guess if i write it to files, and sometimes load them to mysql. It has to be in mysql beacause i need to search in them and gathering data from them.

But if i log them with mysql i guess it's slowes down the server

u can gather data from local files as well
