Public methods

from

public static SliceMetadata from (Context context, 
                Slice slice)

Create a SliceMetadata object to provide access to some information around the slice and its contents.

Parameters
context	Context: the context to use for the slice.
slice	Slice: the slice to extract metadata from.

Returns
SliceMetadata	the metadata associated with the provided slice.

getExpiry

public long getExpiry ()

A slice contains an expiry to indicate when the content in the slice might no longer be valid.

Returns
long	the time, measured in milliseconds, between the expiry time of this slice and midnight, January 1, 1970 UTC, or ListBuilder.INFINITY if the slice is not time-sensitive.

getHeaderType

public int getHeaderType ()

Returns
int	the type of row that is used for the header of this slice, -1 if unknown.

getInputRangeAction

public PendingIntent getInputRangeAction ()

Gets the input range action associated with the header of this slice, if it exists.

Returns
PendingIntent	the PendingIntent for the input range.

getLastUpdatedTime

public long getLastUpdatedTime ()

Returns
long	the time, measured in milliseconds, between when the slice was created or last updated, and midnight, January 1, 1970 UTC.

getLoadingState

public int getLoadingState ()

Returns
int	the current loading state for this slice.

• LOADED_NONE
• LOADED_PARTIAL
• LOADED_ALL

getPrimaryAction

public SliceAction getPrimaryAction ()

Returns
SliceAction	the primary action for this slice, null if none specified.

getRange

public Pair<Integer, Integer> getRange ()

Gets the range information associated with a progress bar or input range associated with this slice, if it exists.

Returns
Pair<Integer, Integer>	a pair where the first item is the minimum value of the range and the second item is the maximum value of the range.

getRangeValue

public int getRangeValue ()

Gets the current value for a progress bar or input range associated with this slice, if it exists, -1 if unknown.

Returns
int	the current value of a progress bar or input range associated with this slice.

getSliceActions

public List<SliceAction> getSliceActions ()

Returns
List<SliceAction>	the group of actions associated with this slice, if they exist.

getSliceKeywords

public List<String> getSliceKeywords ()

Returns
List<String>	the list of keywords associated with the provided slice, null if no keywords were specified or an empty list if the slice was specified to have no keywords.

getSubtitle

public CharSequence getSubtitle ()

Returns
CharSequence	the subtitle associated with this slice, if it exists.

getSummary

public CharSequence getSummary ()

Returns
CharSequence	the summary associated with this slice, if it exists.

getTitle

public CharSequence getTitle ()

Returns
CharSequence	the title associated with this slice, if it exists.

getToggles

public List<SliceAction> getToggles ()

Returns
List<SliceAction>	the toggles associated with the header of this slice.

hasLargeMode

public boolean hasLargeMode ()

Returns
boolean	whether this slice has content to show when presented in SliceView.MODE_LARGE.

isErrorSlice

public boolean isErrorSlice ()

Indicates whether this slice indicates an error, i.e. the normal contents of this slice are unavailable and instead the slice contains a message indicating an error.

Returns
boolean	whether this slice represents an error.

isPermissionSlice

public boolean isPermissionSlice ()

To present a slice from another app, the app must grant uri permissions for the slice. If these permissions have not been granted and the app slice is requested then a permission request slice will be returned instead, allowing the user to grant permission. This method can be used to identify if a slice is a permission request.

Returns
boolean	whether this slice represents a permission request.

sendInputRangeAction

public boolean sendInputRangeAction (int newValue)

Sends the intent to adjust the input range value for the header of this slice, if it exists.

Parameters
newValue	int: the value to set the input range to.

Returns
boolean	whether there was an action to send.

Throws
PendingIntent.CanceledException

sendToggleAction

public boolean sendToggleAction (SliceAction toggleAction, 
                boolean toggleValue)

Sends the intent to adjust the state of the provided toggle action.

Parameters
toggleAction	SliceAction: the toggle action.
toggleValue	boolean: the new value to set the toggle to.

Returns
boolean	whether there was an action to send.

Throws
PendingIntent.CanceledException
