Server Config (Secrets)

server/config.lua is server-only — it is never sent to clients and never exposed in any UI. This is where API keys, bot tokens, and webhook URLs live.

It is also escrow-ignored, so server owners can edit it after purchasing.

}

Discord Bot

Used to fetch player Discord roles for permission gating.

Field	Type	Description
`DiscordBotToken`	string	Bot token from Discord Developer Portal
`DiscordGuildId`	string	Server (guild) ID — copy from Discord with Developer Mode
`DiscordCacheDuration`	number	How long to cache role lookups in seconds (default 120)

Setup

discord.com/developers/applications → New Application
Add a Bot → copy the Bot Token
Enable Server Members Intent (Privileged Gateway Intents)
Invite the bot to your server with the bot scope and at minimum View Server Members permission
In Discord with Developer Mode enabled, right-click your server → Copy Server ID

When Empty

If either DiscordBotToken or DiscordGuildId is empty, all discordRoles checks are silently skipped. Job-based permissions still work without Discord.

Cache Tuning

120 (default) — good for most servers
300-600 — for servers where roles rarely change, reduces API calls
30 — for fast role-change propagation
0 — disables caching entirely (one API call per check, not recommended)

DashCam Upload

Field	Type	Description
`DashCamUploadProvider`	string	`"fivemanage"` or `"discord"`
`DashCamFivemanageApiKey`	string	API key from fivemanage.com
`DashCamDiscordWebhook`	string	Webhook URL from a Discord channel

Provider Comparison

Provider	File limit	Setup
Fivemanage	Unlimited	API key — paid service with free tier
Discord	25 MB	Webhook URL — completely free

Discord's 25 MB hard limit means you can only upload ~1.5 minutes at typical bitrate. For full 5-minute recordings, use Fivemanage.

Fivemanage Setup

Sign up at fivemanage.com
Dashboard → API Keys → Create
Set the permission to allow video uploads
Copy the key

Discord Webhook Setup

In your Discord server, create a channel for recordings
Channel settings → Integrations → Webhooks → New Webhook → Copy Webhook URL
(Optional) customize the webhook avatar / name

Security Camera Upload

Independent settings — security cam recordings can go to a different destination than dashcam recordings.

Field	Type	Description
`SecurityCamUploadProvider`	string	`"fivemanage"` or `"discord"`
`SecurityCamFivemanageApiKey`	string	Empty → inherits `DashCamFivemanageApiKey`
`SecurityCamDiscordWebhook`	string	Empty → inherits `DashCamDiscordWebhook`

Common patterns:

One destination for everything → leave both Security fields empty, set DashCam credentials, both feed the same destination
Dashcam to Discord, Security cam to Fivemanage → set Discord webhook on DashCam fields, set Fivemanage key on Security fields
Two separate Discord channels → set both DashCamDiscordWebhook and SecurityCamDiscordWebhook to different webhook URLs

Adding Custom Secrets

server/config.lua is your space — add your own keys for custom server-side modules:

lua

ServerConfig.MySecretApiKey = "..."
ServerConfig.MyWebhook = "..."

Reference them from server-side Lua: ServerConfig.MySecretApiKey. Never reference from client-side code.
