[OOP] Simple ProfileService Wrapper

Resources Community Resources
#1

Hi! As I was making my example game for my portfolio I needed to create a Datastore handler, so I used ProfileService and made a wrapper with OOP!

This is my first time ever using Object Oriented Programming, so it may not be 100% great, but it works.

Example Usage:

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local ServerStorage = game:GetService("ServerStorage")

local Database = require(ServerStorage:WaitForChild("Database")) --> This Module

--

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(p)
	local dataObject = Database(p)
	dataObject:load()
	
	print(dataObject.Data)
end)

Functions

module(player: Player) → returns dataObject

Creates a “DataObject”

dataObject:load() → returns void

Loads the players data into the DataObject.

dataObject:unload() → returns void

Unloads the players data, you don’t need to call this when they leave, it will do it automatically.

Properties of dataObject

dataObject.player → player
dataObject.data → Saved Data
dataObject.Profile → Profile
