HEADKNOCKA Nexus Developer Panel — Open Source Edition

Turn your FiveM server into a live in-game development command center.

Manage resources, edit files, create backups, create new resources, run SQL tools, control server commands, and track admin activity without leaving the game.

The HEADKNOCKA Nexus Developer Panel — Open Source Edition is a full-source FiveM developer and admin panel built for server owners, founders, developers, and trusted staff who want complete control over their server management workflow.

This version is delivered as a fully editable, plaintext open-source package, giving buyers access to the Lua, JavaScript, NUI, config, documentation, and source files needed to modify, extend, or customize the system for their own server.

Open Nexus in-game with /nexus and access a clean, futuristic dashboard where authorized users can manage resources, browse files, edit scripts, create backups, restore previous versions, create new resources, view audit logs, and use protected owner-only tools.

Designed with security in mind, every major action is protected through server-side ACE permissions, making Nexus powerful for owners while still allowing safe controlled access for admins.

🔓 FULL OPEN SOURCE ACCESS

This edition is built for customers who want complete editing freedom.

Unlike escrow-locked resources, the Open Source Edition includes fully editable runtime files and source files so developers can customize the system to match their server’s needs.

Included open-source access can include:

• Editable Lua files
• Editable server files
• Editable client files
• Editable JavaScript files
• Editable NUI files
• Editable configuration files
• Editable web source files
• Editable documentation
• Editable data structure files
• Prebuilt NUI files included
• Source NUI project included

This makes Nexus ideal for developers who want to expand features, adjust logic, edit the UI, add custom integrations, or build server-specific tools on top of the system.

🧠 A LIVE DEVELOPER COMMAND CENTER

Stop leaving the game every time you need to check, edit, restart, or manage something.

Nexus gives authorized users a complete in-game development workspace with real-time server information and powerful management tools.

From one interface, you can:

• View all server resources
• Start, stop, and restart resources
• Search resources by name, state, or path
• View resource status and folder information
• Access files inside server resources
• Edit allowed text and config files
• Create new files
• Create new folders
• Create new resources
• Save changes with edit reasons
• Create backups before editing
• Restore previous versions
• Track important admin actions through logs

Nexus is built for server owners who want faster workflow, safer live editing, better organization, and full control over their development environment.

⚙️ RESOURCE MANAGEMENT

Control your FiveM resources directly from an in-game interface.

Authorized users can manage live resources without constantly opening txAdmin, FTP, or server console.

Resource tools include:

• Full server resource list
• Started and stopped resource counts
• Resource search
• Resource folder grouping
• Start resource
• Stop resource
• Restart resource
• Resource state tracking
• Blocked resource protection
• Owner-only protection for core resources
• Recent action history

Core resources such as framework cores, database resources, and protected system resources can be restricted so only owners can manage them.

📝 SAFE FILE EDITOR

Edit allowed server files directly from inside FiveM using the built-in Nexus code workspace.

The editor supports common script and config file types while blocking dangerous or protected file extensions.

Editable file types can include:

• lua
• json
• cfg
• txt
• js
• jsx
• ts
• tsx
• css
• html
• xml
• yml / yaml
• sql
• md

Editor features include:

• File browser
• Folder navigation
• Fullscreen editing mode
• Line numbers
• Find in file
• Go to line
• Undo and redo shortcuts
• Save with reason notes
• Manual file backups
• Automatic backups before saving
• File size limits
• Protected file restrictions

This allows trusted developers to make quick changes safely while keeping dangerous files and protected resources locked down.

☁️ BACKUP AND RESTORE SYSTEM

Nexus includes a built-in backup system designed to protect your server from accidental mistakes.

Before important edits or restores, Nexus can automatically create backup restore points. Staff can also manually create backups before making changes.

Backup tools include:

• Automatic backups before file saves
• Manual backup creation
• Backup preview
• Restore backup
• Delete single backup
• Delete backups by resource
• Bulk backup cleanup
• Backup grouping by resource
• Backup size and date information
• Restore confirmation protection

This gives server owners a safer way to allow trusted staff or developers to work on live resources without risking permanent damage from a bad edit.

🏗️ RESOURCE CREATOR

Create new FiveM resources directly from the Nexus panel.

Nexus can generate a new resource folder with the basic files needed to begin development quickly.

Resource creator features include:

• Create new resource folders
• Generate fxmanifest.lua
• Generate client files
• Generate server files
• Generate optional config files
• Standalone resource template
• ESX-ready template
• QBCore-ready template
• Qbox-ready template
• Basic NUI resource support
• Optional auto-start after creation
• Safe resource name validation
• Existing resource overwrite protection

This is perfect for developers who frequently create test scripts, utility resources, framework scripts, admin tools, or NUI-based systems.

🛡️ SERVER-SIDE SECURITY

Nexus is not just a client-side menu.

Every important action is validated on the server using ACE permissions, meaning players cannot simply open the UI and perform restricted actions without proper access.

Security features include:

• Server-side ACE permission checks
• Separate admin and owner permissions
• nexus.admin access level
• nexus.owner access level
• Owner-only SQL console
• Owner-only server console
• Core resource restart protection
• Blocked resource list
• Blocked file extensions
• Blocked protected files
• Dangerous SQL query protection
• Blocked console command protection
• Webhook secret redaction

This makes Nexus suitable for serious production servers where only trusted users should have access to development tools.

🧾 AUDIT LOGGING

Every important Nexus action can be recorded for accountability.

The system tracks admin activity and can send logs to Discord through webhook integration.

Audit logs can include:

• Panel opens
• File edits
• File saves
• Backup creation
• Backup restores
• Backup deletions
• Resource starts
• Resource stops
• Resource restarts
• SQL console usage
• Resource creation
• File and folder creation
• Admin profile activity

Discord webhook logging can include content previews and diffs, with secret redaction support to help protect sensitive information.

🗄️ OWNER SQL CONSOLE

Nexus includes an owner-only SQL console for trusted server owners and founders.

The SQL console uses oxmysql and is protected behind owner permissions.

SQL tools include:

• Owner-only database access
• Query runner
• Result table display
• Configurable max returned rows
• Dangerous query blocking
• Blocks DROP by default
• Blocks TRUNCATE by default
• Blocks ALTER by default
• Blocks GRANT and REVOKE by default
• Blocks DELETE without WHERE
• Blocks UPDATE without WHERE
• SQL activity audit logging

This gives owners quick access to database checks while reducing the risk of accidental destructive queries.

🖥️ OWNER SERVER CONSOLE

Trusted owners can run selected FXServer console commands directly from the Nexus interface.

The live console tab is designed for owner-level server management and can be restricted or disabled in configuration.

Console tools include:

• Owner-only command access
• Run FXServer commands
• Command history
• Best-effort command result display
• Configurable max command length
• Blocked command list
• Optional automatic command ACE handling
• Quit command disabled by default

Recommended uses include:

• status
• players
• refresh
• ensure resource
• restart resource
• stop resource
• start resource

👑 ADMIN PROFILES

Nexus includes admin profile tracking so server owners can see who is using the panel and what they have been doing.

Profile tools include:

• Current admin profile display
• Admin role display
• Owner/admin level display
• Recent actions
• Total edit tracking
• Total restart tracking
• SQL usage tracking
• Static profile override support

This helps management teams keep better visibility over developer and staff activity.

🧩 COMPATIBILITY

Nexus is built as a standalone FiveM resource and does not require a roleplay framework to operate.

Supported server types:

• Standalone FiveM servers
• ESX Legacy servers
• QBCore servers
• Qbox servers
• Custom framework servers

Optional integrations:

• oxmysql for SQL console features
• Discord webhook for audit logging

Nexus can be used on most FiveM servers as long as ACE permissions are configured correctly.
