Install wc_libs

Three steps: drop the resource in, ensure it before anything that depends on it, optionally pin the framework. That's the whole setup.

1. Add the resource

Copy the wc_libs folder into your server's resources directory, alongside your other resources — not nested inside one of them.

resources/
├── [core]/
│   └── vorp_core/
├── [standalone]/
│   └── wc_libs/             ← here
└── [wc]/
    ├── wc_encounter/
    └── wc_death/

2. Ensure it before dependent resources

wc_libs needs to start before any resource that uses it. Add it to your server.cfg ahead of everything else with a "wc_" prefix or anything else you plan to migrate.

ensure vorp_core
ensure wc_libs
ensure wc_encounter
ensure wc_death

3. Confirm it picked up your framework

On start, wc_libs auto-detects which core is running by checking for vorp_core or rsg-core as a started resource. Check your server console for a line like:

[wc_libs] server ready — framework: vorp — version: 1.0.0
[wc_libs] client ready — framework: vorp — version: 1.0.0

If you see NONE DETECTED instead, your core framework either isn't installed or started after wc_libs. Check your ensure order, or set the framework explicitly — see below.

Optional: force the framework

Auto-detection covers almost every setup. The one case it doesn't is running both cores side by side mid-migration — wc_libs will default to VORP and print a warning if it sees both. Override it explicitly in shared/config.lua:

-- leave as nil to auto-detect (the default)
WCLibConfig.ForceFramework = 'vorp' -- or 'rsg'

Calling wc_libs from your own resource

Add '@wc_libs/init.lua' to your resource's shared_scripts — that sets the wc shorthand global. Then call any wc_libs function as wc:FunctionName(...), same syntax on client and server.

shared_scripts {
  '@wc_libs/init.lua',
  'config.lua',
}

local money = wc:GetMoney(source)
wc:AddMoney(source, 50)
wc:Notify(source, { title = "+$50" })

local prompt = wc:CreatePrompt("Talk [G]")
wc:SetPromptVisible(prompt, true)
