Constructor: channel

Channel/supergroup info

When updating the local peer database, all fields from the newly received constructor take priority over the old constructor cached locally (including by removing fields that aren’t set in the new constructor).

The only exception to the above rule is when the min flag is set, in which case only the following fields must be applied over any locally stored version:

• title
• megagroup
• color
• photo
• username
• usernames
• has_geo
• noforwards
• emoji_status
• has_link
• slow_mode_enabled
• scam
• fake
• gigagroup
• forum
• level
• restricted
• restriction_reason
• join_to_send
• join_request
• is_verified
• default_banned_rights
• signature_profiles

See here » for an implementation of the logic to use when updating the local user peer database.
