Generating Pointshop 2 Items programatically

The goal here is to integrate an external system into Pointshop 2 by using items. Since they are already created we only need to map them to PS2 items. For this example Attachments for Customizable Weaponry 2 are used. CW2 offers a system where players can pick attachments in a menu. Players can only pick attachments that they own.

Players should be able to buy attachments in Pointshop2
Players should be given all attachments they own in Pointshop2 so that CW can pick them up
It should be possible to set the price for the attachments individually

Replacement for firebase functions:serve

Serve firebase functions efficiently through express. Doesn't make the PC die as the cloud functions emulator does but is a bit less closer to the real env they run in. Useful for dev.

This uses a simple express server to serve your functions. It's nice for developing as the restarting is much faster and it doesn't use as much of your CPU/Ram as the cloud functions emulator does.

Setup

Make sure your firebase service account is saved to your functions config under the serviceacc key.

Adding a button to the PS2 Inventory section

It's easy to add a button that opens another menu. Here a report menu button was added:

Create a new file in garrysmod/lua/autorun/ps2_extrabuttons.lua with the following contents:

AddCSLuaFile()
Pointshop2:AddInventoryButton( "Report Menu", "pointshop2/warning8.png", function( )
 -- Run console command to open the report menu

Snippet to fix SVG issues in Angular (2+) with Safari, Firefox and Chrome

This listens to Angular route changes and on route change does the following:

Replaces the link in <use xlink:href="#some-id"></use> by a path prefixed version
Replaces the fill property in referenced SVGs by a path prefixed version
Replaces the style in <svg style="fill: url(#gradient)"> with a prefixed version
