Configuration

Edit shared/config.lua:

• AccentColour – NUI accent (e.g. #3b82f6)

• Locale – Locale file name without extension (e.g. 'en' loads locales/en.json)

• PlaceableBenches – Map of item names to bench types (e.g. ['crafting_bench_basic'] = 'workbench_basic')

• RecipeGroups – Groups, skills, recipes with ingredients and minLevel. For display order: use recipeOrder = {'id1','id2','id3'} with hash format, or define recipes as an array: recipes = { { id = 'lockpick', ... }, { id = 'bandage', ... } }

• BenchTypes – Bench definitions and which groups they can craft

• StaticBenches – World bench positions

Adding Placeable Bench Items

You can have multiple placeable bench types. Add each to ox_inventory/data/items.lua and map them in PlaceableBenches in config:

['crafting_bench_basic'] = {
    label = 'Basic Crafting Bench',
    weight = 5000,
    stack = false,
    close = true,
    description = 'Place a basic crafting bench.',
    server = { export = 'jdbnet-crafting.UsePlaceableBench' },
},

['crafting_bench_advanced'] = {
    label = 'Advanced Crafting Bench',
    weight = 5000,
    stack = false,
    close = true,
    description = 'Place an advanced crafting bench.',
    server = { export = 'jdbnet-crafting.UsePlaceableBench' },
},

If your resource folder has a different name, use that instead of jdbnet-crafting in the export. Add each item to your shop script so players can buy them.

cw-rep Skills

Add the skills used in RecipeGroups to your cw-rep config, for example:

weapons_crafting = {
    icon = 'fas fa-gun',
    label = 'Weapons Crafting',
},
ammo_crafting = {
    icon = 'fas fa-bullseye',
    label = 'Ammo Crafting',
},

Locales

Translations live in locales/en.json. Customers can edit this file to customize UI text, notifications, and labels. Set Locale = 'en' (or your language code) in shared/config.lua to select the file.
