Integration

Every jg-advancedgarages:* export/event also exists under an equivalent legacy-garages: prefix. Third-party scripts hardcoded to jg-advancedgarages names keep working because the resource name is aliased via provide() — do not rename this resource in its fxmanifest, that will break those integrations.

Client exports

OpenGarage(garageId, isImpound)

Opens the garage UI for a garage id. If it is a spawner-type job garage and isImpound is falsy, it will try the showroom UI first.

Call from any client script:

-- client script
exports['legacy-garages']:OpenGarage('pdgarage', false)

StoreVehicle(garageId)

Stores the vehicle the player is in (or nearest within 5m) into the given garage.

-- client script
exports['legacy-garages']:StoreVehicle('pdgarage')

IsGarageUiOpen()

Returns whether a garage/showroom NUI is currently open.

-- client script
if exports['legacy-garages']:IsGarageUiOpen() then
    -- avoid opening another UI
end

JG

Export table name for the jg-advancedgarages compat alias, set in config.

Server exports

IsVehicleInGarage(plate)

-- server script
local inGarage = exports['legacy-garages']:IsVehicleInGarage('ABC123')

GetVehicleGarage(plate)

-- server script
local garageId = exports['legacy-garages']:GetVehicleGarage('ABC123')

GetVehicle(plate)

-- server script
local row = exports['legacy-garages']:GetVehicle('ABC123')

ReturnVehicleToGarage(plate, garageId)

-- server script
exports['legacy-garages']:ReturnVehicleToGarage('ABC123', 'Legion Square')

ImpoundVehicle(plate, fee, reason, hours)

-- server script
exports['legacy-garages']:ImpoundVehicle('ABC123', 500, 'Illegal parking', 24)

SetVehicleOwner(plate, citizenid)

Used by dealership/handover scripts to set ownership directly.

-- server script
exports['legacy-garages']:SetVehicleOwner('ABC123', 'ABC12345')

Server callback exports (lib.callback)

These back the NUI but can be invoked by other server scripts too:

• legacy-garages:getGarageData(src, garageId, isImpound) — fetch garage data for the NUI.
• legacy-garages:takeOut(src, plate, garageId) — take a vehicle out of a garage.
• legacy-garages:store(src, data) — store a vehicle.
• legacy-garages:rename(src, plate, nickname) — rename a vehicle.
• legacy-garages:financePayment(src, plate) — make one finance payment (requires jg-dealerships).
• legacy-garages:financePayoff(src, plate) — pay off financing in full.
• legacy-garages:transferGarage(src, plate, toGarage) — move a vehicle to another public garage.
• legacy-garages:transferPlayer(src, plate, targetId) — transfer ownership to another player.
• legacy-garages:returnVehicle(src, plate, garageId) — tow a stray vehicle back into its garage.
• legacy-garages:releaseImpound(src, plate, garageId) — release an impounded vehicle.
• legacy-garages:impoundVehicle(src, data) — impound a vehicle (police form).
• legacy-garages:getSpawnerVehicles(src, garageId) — list a spawner job garage's fleet.
• legacy-garages:saveLoadout(src, garageId, model, config) — save a showroom loadout.
• legacy-garages:canSpawnSpawner(src, garageId, model) — validate + reserve a plate for a spawner vehicle.

Events to trigger (opening garages from other resources)

If your resource (e.g. a housing script) needs to open a garage it doesn't own the definition for:

-- server script
TriggerClientEvent('jg-advancedgarages:client:open-garage', targetSrc, 'property_42', 'car', vector4(1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0))
-- or, using the first-party alias:
TriggerClientEvent('legacy-garages:client:open-garage', targetSrc, 'property_42', 'car', vector4(1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0))

To trigger the store-vehicle flow:

-- server script
TriggerClientEvent('jg-advancedgarages:client:store-vehicle', targetSrc, 'property_42', 'car', vector4(1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0))

To open the police impound form (e.g. from rcore_police):

-- server script
TriggerClientEvent('jg-advancedgarages:client:show-impound-form', targetSrc)

To despawn a vehicle by plate on whichever client has it streamed in:

-- server script
TriggerClientEvent('legacy-garages:client:despawn-plate', -1, 'ABC123')

To register a vehicle spawned outside a garage (e.g. valet features like lb-phone):

-- client script
TriggerServerEvent('jg-advancedgarages:server:register-vehicle-outside', plate, netId)
-- or:
TriggerServerEvent('legacy-garages:server:register-vehicle-outside', plate, netId)

To ask clients to refresh blips/TextUI after a job change:

-- server script
TriggerClientEvent('jg-advancedgarages:client:update-blips-text-uis', targetSrc)

Blip manager integration

If you run legacy-blipmanager, legacy-garages automatically listens for:

• legacy-blipmanager:modeChanged(id, mode) — updates garage blip visibility mode ('all', 'closest', 'none') when id == 'garages'.
• legacy-blipmanager:ready — triggers this resource to register its 'garages' blip category.

No action needed from integrators beyond having legacy-blipmanager running; these are client-local events fired by that resource.
