lua check if target is player

[Thomja]

Hey

I wanna add a custom trigger to my WeakAuras icon. Now my lua knowledge is not the best and I want my icon to show when I have the buff Death Note on as a monk(Death Note allows you to use Touch of Death).

I do not however want it to show when I am fighting regular mobs so the aura trigger wont really work here.

the code should say something along the lines of

if target = player and I have Death Note then
show icon.

Thanks!

It now appears that this is incorrect. This only checks if I am a player right?

I found this but it's protected though

API TargetUnit - WoWWiki - Your guide to the World of Warcraft

This should work:

If you want to check if you are targeting yourself:
(UnitIsUnit("player","target"))

If you want to check if your target is targeting you:
(UnitIsUnit("player","targettarget"))

No. I checks if unitid you pass as argument is a player (any player) or not.
