Server Requests

Server requests are essentially RemoteFunctions wrapped in a Promise with some basic management options.

API

Promises Cancelled on the server are automatically communicated to the client. This means that if a handler was set to handle OnCancel as specified by Promise.new, the client will be able to reconcile cancelled requests with ease.

Server :

InvokeClient(player : Player, requestName : string, timeout : number?, ...) -> Promise, UUID

Invokes the client, returning a Promise.

GetPlayerActiveRequests(player : Player) -> {{[string] : {[number] : Promise}}}

Retrieve a dictionary of active requests for the player. The dictionary has keys of RequestName. The entries for an active request of a specified request name is a dictionary of UUID's with the associated Promise.

Client :

SetRequestHandler(requestName, handler : (any) -> any)

Set the handler for requests of "requestName".

SetRequestHandlerPromise(requestName, handler : ((any) -> Promise)?)

Set the handler for requests of "requestName". This must return a Promise. Used for handlers that need control over what should happen if the Server cancels a request.

GetRequestHandler(requestName)

Gets the function set as the request handler for "requestName"
