Installation & requirements
Prerequisites, supported dependencies, and start order for Jim G Trading Cards
📋 Prerequisites
This script uses inventory metadata for individual cards, grading, and CVG slabs. Binders and deck boxes store card slots in MySQL via oxmysql (table auto-creates on start).
Metadata support required
Your inventory must support item metadata. Without metadata, cards cannot track condition or grading and the script will not function.
Supported dependencies
- • oxmysql (required)
- • community_bridge (required)
- • jim_g_trading_cards_props (required — start before main script)
- • ox_lib (optional)
- • Inventories: ox_inventory (fully supported), qb-inventory, tgiann, or any metadata-capable inventory
Database
Binder and deck box card data is stored in MySQL table jg_tc_container_cards. The script creates this table automatically on first start — no manual SQL needed. Optional one-time import: install/sql/jg_tc.sql. Existing binders and deck boxes migrate automatically the first time they are opened after updating.
📥 Installation steps
