Requirements

ox_lib is the only dependency. It must be installed and started before nex_povrequest. No framework and no SQL — the resource is otherwise standalone.

​
Steps

  1. Drop the nex_povrequest folder into your resources/ directory. Any subfolder is fine, e.g. resources/[nex]/nex_povrequest/.
  2. Add it to your server.cfg after ox_lib: 
    ensure ox_lib
ensure nex_povrequest
  3. Grant admins access in server.cfg: 
    add_ace group.admin nex_povrequest.use allow
    If you use txAdmin’s default admin group, group.admin already covers your admins. The permission check runs server-side, so it cannot be bypassed from the client. To let everyone use /pov, set Config.RequiredAce = nil in lua/config.lua.
  4. Open lua/config.lua and set Config.WebhookURL to your own Discord webhook.
    The shipped config.lua contains an example webhook URL. Replace it with your own webhook — or set it to '' to disable Discord logging.
  5. Adjust the rest of lua/config.lua to taste (see Configuration) and start or restart the server.

​
Checking it worked

From F8: 
lua print(GetResourceState('nex_povrequest'))
Should print started. Then run /pov as an admin — the panel should open with the online player list.

​
Updating

lua/config.lua is listed under escrow_ignore, so your settings survive updates.
  1. Replace the resource files with the new version (keep your edited lua/config.lua).
  2. Restart the resource: restart nex_povrequest.
The resource includes a server-side version check. When a newer release exists, an update notice with the changelog and download links prints to the server console shortly after startup. It only reads a public version manifest — nothing is sent from your server.
