 Event task_complete | |
| Fired when an asynchronous task completes. Used by every commands API method which yields, including commands.execAsync(), but excluding commands.getBlockPosition(). Also used internally by every command block's method. | |
| Returned Object 1 | number taskID - the ID number of the task |
| Returned Object 2 | boolean success - true if the task completed without error, false otherwise |
| Returned Object 3 | [string error] - if success is false then this is the error message saying why the task failed. Otherwise returned object 4 takes it's place, fallowed by returned object 5, 6, etc.. |
| Returned Object 4 | any param1, param2, ... - parameters, returned by the task |
 Example | |
| Waits for any task to complete and prints it's ID, if it succeeded and if not succeeded the error message. | |
| Code |
local event, taskID, success, error = os.pullEvent( "task_complete" ) print( "Task ID: ", taskID ) print( "Task succeeded: ", success ) if not success then print( "Error: ", error ) end |
Contents
commands.exec()/commands.execAsync()
| Event task_complete | |
| Fired when commands.exec()/commands.execAsync() is executed. This is used internally by commands.exec() and it is not needed to be used by the user. | |
| Returned Object 1 | number taskID - the ID number of the task |
| Returned Object 2 | boolean success - true if the task completed without error, false otherwise |
| Returned Object 3 | [string error] - if success is false then this is the error message saying why the task failed. Otherwise returned object 4 takes it's place, fallowed by returned object 5 |
| Returned Object 4 | boolean commandResult - true if the command was executed successfully and returned positive value (a /testfor found a player), false if the command was not executed (invalid command or wrong arguments passed to the command) or it returned negative value (a /testfor didn't find a player) |
| Returned Object 5 | [string error] - if commandResult is false then this is the error message saying why the command failed |
| Example | |
| Checks if there are any players around the Command Computer in 2 block radius. | |
| Code |
local radius = 2 local taskID = commands.execAsync( "testfor @a[r=" .. radius .. "]") local arePlayersAround local errorMessage while true do local event, id, success, executed, error = os.pullEvent( "task_complete" ) if id == taskID then arePlayersAround = success and executed if not success then errorMessage = executed elseif not executed then errorMessage = error end break end end if errorMessage then print( "An error has occurred: ", errorMessage ) elseif arePlayersAround then print( "There is one or more players around me." ) else print( "There are no players around me." ) end |
commands.list()
| Event task_complete | |
| Fired when commands.list() completes. This is used internally by the function itself and it is not needed to be used by the user. | |
| Returned Object 1 | number taskID - the ID number of the task |
| Returned Object 2 | boolean success - true if the task completed without error, false otherwise |
| Returned Object 3 | [string error] - if success is false then this is the error message saying why the task failed. Otherwise returned object 4 takes it's place |
| Returned Object 4 | table commands - a numerically indexed table filled with strings representing acceptable commands for commands.exec() / commands.execAsync() |
commands.getBlockInfo()
| Event task_complete | |
| Fired when commands.getBlockInfo() completes. This is used internally by the function itself and it is not needed to be used by the user. | |
| Returned Object 1 | number taskID - the ID number of the task |
| Returned Object 2 | boolean success - true if the task completed without error, false otherwise |
| Returned Object 3 | [string error] - if success is false then this is the error message saying why the task failed. Otherwise returned object 4 takes it's place |
| Returned Object 4 | table blockInfo - a table containing information on the block at the specified world co-ordinate |
commandBlock.getCommand()
| Event task_complete | |
| Fired when commandBlock.getCommand() completes. This is used internally by the function itself and it is not needed to be used by the user. | |
| Returned Object 1 | number taskID - the ID number of the task |
| Returned Object 2 | boolean success - true if the task completed without error, false otherwise |
| Returned Object 3 | [string error] - if success is false then this is the error message saying why the task failed. Otherwise returned object 4 takes it's place |
| Returned Object 4 | string command - the command in the command block |
commandBlock.setCommand()
| Event task_complete | |
| Fired when commandBlock.setCommand() completes. This is used internally by the function itself and it is not needed to be used by the user. | |
| Returned Object 1 | number taskID - the ID number of the task |
| Returned Object 2 | boolean success - true if the task completed without error, false otherwise |
| Returned Object 3 | [string error] - if success is false then this is the error message saying why the task failed. |
commandBlock.runCommand()
| Event task_complete | |
| Fired when commandBlock.runCommand() completes. This is used internally by the function itself and it is not needed to be used by the user. | |
| Returned Object 1 | number taskID - the ID number of the task |
| Returned Object 2 | boolean success - true if the task completed without error, false otherwise |
| Returned Object 3 | [string error] - if success is false then this is the error message saying why the task failed. Otherwise returned object 4 takes it's place, fallowed by returned object 5 |
| Returned Object 4 | boolean commandResult - true if the command was executed successfully and returned positive value (a /testfor found a player), false if the command was not executed (invalid command or wrong arguments passed to the command) or it returned negative value (a /testfor didn't find a player) |
| Returned Object 5 | [string error] - if commandResult is false then this is the error message saying why the command failed |
