Method Details

setDefaultMentions

static void setDefaultMentions(@Nullable
 Collection<Message.MentionType> allowedMentions)

Sets the MentionTypes that should be parsed by default. This just sets the default for all RestActions and can be overridden on a per-action basis using allowedMentions(Collection).
If a message is sent with an empty Set of MentionTypes, then it will not ping any User, Role or @everyone/@here, while still showing up as mention tag.

If null is provided to this method, then all Types will be pingable (unless whitelisting via one of the mention* methods is used).

Example

 // Disable EVERYONE and HERE mentions by default (to avoid mass ping)
 EnumSet<Message.MentionType> deny = EnumSet.of(Message.MentionType.EVERYONE, Message.MentionType.HERE);
 AllowedMentions.setDefaultMentions(EnumSet.complementOf(deny));
 

Parameters:

allowedMentions - MentionTypes that are allowed to being parsed and pinged. null to disable and allow all mentions.

getDefaultMentions

@Nonnull
static EnumSet<Message.MentionType> getDefaultMentions()

Returns the default MentionTypes previously set by AllowedMentions.setDefaultMentions(Collection).

Returns:

Default mentions set by AllowedMentions.setDefaultMentions(Collection)

setDefaultMentionRepliedUser

static void setDefaultMentionRepliedUser(boolean mention)

Sets the default value for mentionRepliedUser(boolean)

Default: true

Parameters:

mention - True, if replies should mention by default

isDefaultMentionRepliedUser

static boolean isDefaultMentionRepliedUser()

Returns the default mention behavior for replies.
If this is true then all replies will mention the author of the target message by default. You can specify this individually with mentionRepliedUser(boolean) for each message.

Default: true

Returns:

True, if replies mention by default

mentionRepliedUser

@Nonnull
@CheckReturnValue
R mentionRepliedUser(boolean mention)

Whether to mention the used, when replying to a message.
This only matters in combination with MessageAction.reference(Message) and MessageAction.referenceById(long)!

This is true by default but can be configured using setDefaultMentionRepliedUser(boolean)!

Parameters:

mention - True, to mention the author if the referenced message

Returns:

Updated Action for chaining convenience

allowedMentions

@Nonnull
@CheckReturnValue
R allowedMentions(@Nullable
 Collection<Message.MentionType> allowedMentions)

Sets the MentionTypes that should be parsed.
If a message is sent with an empty Set of MentionTypes, then it will not ping any User, Role or @everyone/@here, while still showing up as mention tag.

If null is provided to this method, then all Types will be pingable (unless whitelisting via one of the mention* methods is used).

Note: A default for this can be set using AllowedMentions.setDefaultMentions(Collection).

Parameters:

allowedMentions - MentionTypes that are allowed to being parsed and pinged. null to disable and allow all mentions.

Returns:

Updated Action for chaining convenience

mention

@Nonnull
@CheckReturnValue
R mention(@Nonnull
 IMentionable... mentions)

Used to provide a whitelist for Users, Members and Roles that should be pinged, even when they would not be pinged otherwise according to the Set of allowed mention types.
On other types of IMentionable, this does nothing.

Note: When a User/Member is whitelisted this way, then parsing of User mentions is automatically disabled (same applies to Roles).
Also note that whitelisting users or roles implicitly disables parsing of other mentions, if not otherwise set via setDefaultMentions(Collection) or allowedMentions(Collection).

Parameters:

mentions - Users, Members and Roles that should be explicitly whitelisted to be pingable.

Returns:

Updated Action for chaining convenience

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - If null is provided
