How to disable and enable role permissions to make private categories as well as private channels

[Sandeep-Narahari]

guild.roles.everyone.setPermissions([PermissionsBitField.Flags.SendMessages, PermissionsBitField.Flags.ViewChannel]); - is there any method like this in DiscordGo?

I want to create a private category, I'm able to create a category and permission overwrite type as role, but still its not private, it means we have added a role in that category, but the everyone role is still active and giving permissions to all other users to view this channel as this channel is public. So I think I have change the permissions for the my role to enable view channels and disable view channel for everyone role.

Thank you, please help me out

With this we are able to create a private category, so in the Allow and Deny fields we enter values for the permissions Ref: https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/bwmarrin/discordgo#PermissionViewChannel

func CreatePermissionedCategory(s *discordgo.Session) {
	cat, err := s.GuildChannelCreateComplex(
		"<guildID>",
		discordgo.GuildChannelCreateData{
			Name:      "Newcategory",
			Type:      4,
			UserLimit: 99,
			PermissionOverwrites: []*discordgo.PermissionOverwrite{
				{ID: "<roleId>", Type: discordgo.PermissionOverwriteTypeRole, Allow: 0x0000000000000400, Deny: 0},
				{ID: "<roleId>", Type: discordgo.PermissionOverwriteTypeRole, Allow: 0, Deny: 0x0000000000000400}},
			RateLimitPerUser: 5,
		})
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println(err.Error())
	}
	fmt.Println(cat.ParentID, cat.PermissionOverwrites, cat.ID)

}

As you've mentioned, you can also simplify Allow and Deny in the snippet you've provided to just discordgo.PermissionReadMessages
