Get Context

The LGF:GetContext() function determines whether the current script is running on the server side or client side of your application. This functionality is useful for dynamically adjusting behavior based on the execution environment.

---@return string | server | client
LGF:GetContext()

Returns

"server": Indicates that the script is running on the server side.
"client": Indicates that the script is running on the client side.
Throws an error: If the environment cannot be determined. The error message will be:
- "Unable to determine path: Not running on either server or client side".

Usage

To use LGF:GetContext(), call the function and use the returned value to execute environment-specific code. Here’s how you can do it:

local LGF = exports['LGF_Utility']:UtilityData()
 
local path = LGF:GetContext()
 
if path == "server" then
    print("Running on the server side")
elseif path == "client" then
    print("Running on the client side")
end
