    • getPositionInCategory

      default int getPositionInCategory()
      Computes the relative position of this channel in the parent category.
      This is effectively the same as getParentCategory().getChannels().indexOf(channel).
      Returns:
      The relative position in the parent category, or -1 if no parent is set

    • getParentCategoryIdLong

      long getParentCategoryIdLong()
      Get the snowflake of the Category that contains this channel.

      This will return 0 if this channel doesn't have a parent category.

      Returns:
      The Discord ID snowflake of the parent channel as a long.

    • getParentCategoryId

      @Nullable default String getParentCategoryId()
      Get the snowflake of the Category that contains this channel.

      This will return null if this channel doesn't have a parent category.

      Returns:
      Possibly-null String representation of the Discord ID snowflake of the parent channel.

    • getParentCategory

      @Nullable default Category getParentCategory()
      Parent Category of this GuildChannel. Channels don't need to have a parent Category.
      Note that a Category will always return null for this method as nested categories are not supported.
      Returns:
      Possibly-null Category for this GuildChannel

    • isSynced

      boolean isSynced()
      Whether or not this GuildChannel's PermissionOverrides match those of its parent category. If the channel doesn't have a parent category, this will return true.

      This requires CacheFlag.MEMBER_OVERRIDES to be enabled.
      createLight(String) disables this CacheFlag by default.

      Returns:
      True, if this channel is synced with its parent category
