  • Method Details

    • onPing

      void onPing(long ping)
      Called when JDA send a heartbeat packet to Discord and Discord sends an acknowledgement. The time difference between sending and receiving the acknowledgement is calculated as the ping.
      Parameters:
      ping - The time, in milliseconds, for round-trip packet travel to discord.
    • onStatusChange

      void onStatusChange(@Nonnull ConnectionStatus status)
      Called when the status of the audio channel changes. Used to track the connection state of the audio connection for easy debug and status display for clients.
      Parameters:
      status - The new ConnectionStatus of the audio connection.
    • onUserSpeaking

      @Deprecated @ForRemoval @ReplaceWith("onUserSpeakingModeUpdate(User, EnumSet<SpeakingMode>)") default void onUserSpeaking(@Nonnull User user, boolean speaking)
      Deprecated.
      This method no longer represents the actual speaking state of the user. Discord does not send updates when a user starts and stops speaking anymore. You can use onUserSpeakingModeUpdate(UserSnowflake, EnumSet) to see when a user changes their speaking mode, or use an AudioReceiveHandler to check when a user is speaking.
      This method is an easy way to detect if a user is talking. Discord sends us an event when a user starts or stops talking and it is parallel to the audio socket, so this event could come milliseconds before or after audio begins or stops. This method is brilliant for clients wanting to display that a user is currently talking.

      Unlike the AudioReceiveHandler.handleCombinedAudio(CombinedAudio) and AudioReceiveHandler.handleUserAudio(UserAudio) methods which are fired extremely often, this method is fired as a flag for the beginning and ending of audio transmission, and as such is only fired when that changes. So while the AudioReceiveHandler.handleUserAudio(UserAudio) method is fired every time JDA receives audio data from Discord, this is only fired when that stream starts and when it stops.
      If the user speaks for 3 minutes straight without ever stopping, then this would fire 2 times, once at the beginning and once after 3 minutes when they stop talking even though the AudioReceiveHandler.handleUserAudio(UserAudio) method was fired thousands of times over the course of the 3 minutes.

      Parameters:
      user - Never-null User who's talking status has changed.
      speaking - If true, the user has begun transmitting audio.

      Parameters:
      user - Never-null User who's talking status has changed.
      modes - EnumSet, containing the active speaking modes. Empty if the user has stopped transmitting audio.

    • onUserSpeakingModeUpdate

      default void onUserSpeakingModeUpdate(@Nonnull User user, @Nonnull EnumSet<SpeakingMode> modes)
      This method is used to listen for users changing their speaking mode.

      Whenever a user joins a voice channel, this is fired once to define the initial speaking modes.

      To detect when a user is speaking, a AudioReceiveHandler should be used instead.

      Note: This requires the user to be currently in the cache. You can use MemberCachePolicy.VOICE to cache currently connected users. Alternatively, use onUserSpeakingModeUpdate(UserSnowflake, EnumSet) to avoid cache.

      Parameters:
      user - The user who changed their speaking mode
      modes - The new speaking modes of the user
    • onUserSpeakingModeUpdate

      default void onUserSpeakingModeUpdate(@Nonnull UserSnowflake user, @Nonnull EnumSet<SpeakingMode> modes)
      This method is used to listen for users changing their speaking mode.

      Whenever a user joins a voice channel, this is fired once to define the initial speaking modes.

      To detect when a user is speaking, a AudioReceiveHandler should be used instead.

      This method works independently of the user cache. The provided user might not be cached.

      Parameters:
      user - The user who changed their speaking mode
      modes - The new speaking modes of the user
