Hi I'm new in firebase and android studio and I have a problem
I want to store the data of this database in an array and next use the array to make a recycler view
Then in the main activity I wrote this:
And if I run the app only this is shown:
But if I do the same but instead of firebase i use a String[] with the data i want to show it works but i don't know why with firebase i can't.
if I change the references by this:
reference = database.getReference(FirebaseReferences.POKEMONS_REFERENCES);
reference.child(FirebaseReferences.APP_REFERENCES).addValueEventListener(new ValueEventListener() {
when I run the app, it automatically closes and i don't know what to do.
Could you please tell me what i'm doing wrong?
Thank you in advance.
Here is the logCat

Fisrts of all, please note that the Firebase documentation recommends against using arrays. Using an array is an anti-pattern when it comes to Firebase. One of the many reasons Firebase recommends against using arrays is that it makes the security rules impossible to write. If you still want to use this kind of structure, for getting those names and store them in an ArrayList, please use the following code:
DatabaseReference rootRef = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference();
DatabaseReference appRef = rootRef.child("pokemons").child("app");
ValueEventListener eventListener = new ValueEventListener() {
#Override
public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
List<String> list = new ArrayList<>();
for(DataSnapshot ds : dataSnapshot.getChildren()) {
String c_name = ds.child("c_name").getValue(String.class);
list.add(c_name);
Log.d("TAG", c_name);
}
Log.d("TAG", list );
}
#Override
public void onCancelled(DatabaseError databaseError) {}
};
appRef.addListenerForSingleValueEvent(eventListener);

I'm having some trouble deleting nodes in Firebase
This is how I upload my data
BigBoy add = new BigBoy(addCate);
myRef.push().setValue(add);
This is how i'm trying to delete my data
databaseReference = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference().child("message");
myRef = database.getReference("message");
String sfasf = Utils.object.getSfasf();
DatabaseReference remove = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference("message").child(sfasf);
remove.removeValue();
But the problem is that the node is not being deleted.
Make your firebase call like this -
DatabaseReference reference = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference("message");
reference.addListenerForSingleValueEvent(new ValueEventListener() {
#Override
public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
for(DataSnapshot dataSnapshots : dataSnapshot.getChildren()){
if (dataSnapshots.child("sfasf").exists()) {
dataSnapshots.child("sfasf").removeValue();
}
}
}
#Override
public void onCancelled(#NonNull DatabaseError databaseError) {
}
});
1) You have a reference object but you dont use it. You have created 2 variable references and you dont use them.
2) Your code is wrong in order to remove the node you must specify the key
myRef = database.getReference("message");
myRef.child(key).remove();
---edit---
try this
myRef.child(key).removeValue();
---edit---
From the official documentation:
The simplest way to delete data is to call removeValue() on a reference to the location of that data. You can also delete by specifying null as the value for another write operation such as setValue() or updateChildren(). You can use this technique with updateChildren() to delete multiple children in a single API call.
The problem was that I wasn't referencing the pushID when I was referencing the specific data node. That was solved by saving the key as well when I upload the data.
I am trying to pull the data from my firebase real time database. The problem i am facing here is that I can pull the data from /ItemList successfully but when I try to pull the data from /ItemRequest the data cant be pulled but when I give it a specific path such as /ItemRequest/admin it works. What I am trying to do is to populate a listview with all the child from /ItemRequest from both admin and user.I am using firebase list adapter to populate my listview so are there any ways to do what i want?
Database Layout
What I am trying to do is to populate a listview with all the child from /ItemRequest from both admin and user.
To solve this, you need to iterate over the DataSnapshot object twice, like in the following lines of code:
DatabaseReference rootRef = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference();
DatabaseReference itemRequestRef = rootRef.child("ItemRequest");
ValueEventListener valueEventListener = new ValueEventListener() {
#Override
public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
for(DataSnapshot dSnapshot : dataSnapshot.getChildren()) {
for(DataSnapshot ds : dSnapshot.getChildren()) {
String productName = ds.child("ProductName").getValue(String.class);
Log.d(TAG, productName);
}
}
}
#Override
public void onCancelled(#NonNull DatabaseError databaseError) {
Log.d(TAG, databaseError.getMessage()); //Don't ignore errors!
}
};
itemRequestRef.addListenerForSingleValueEvent(valueEventListener);
The output in your logcat will be:

If you want to display those results in a ListView, please see my answer from this post:
Showing Firebase data in ListView
AFAIK, FirebaseListAdapter does not work well with child objects that have multiple childs themselves and there is no query method for you to filter them out. I would rather manually pull the child items one by one using DataSnapshots adding them into an arraylist then populating the list using a custom array adapter instead
DatabaseReference databaseReference=mDatabase;
String queryText="Hotel";
databaseReference.orderByChild("Coupon")
.startAt(queryText)
.endAt(queryText+"\uf8ff");
Here I attached the code which I used to get child names of "Coupon" when I entered the "Hotel" query under the Coupon.But I got blank.I supposed to get Hotel1,Hotel2 object.I'm new to firebase.So hope your support .Thanks in advance.
In the Web version, they use something called ElasticSearch, you could try to read more here: https://firebase.googleblog.com/2014/01/queries-part-2-advanced-searches-with.html
But for Android, I think there isn't any functionality to perform a search like that. What I would do is to query all the records then filter them myself:
DatabaseReference databaseReference = mDatabase;
mDatabase.addValueEventListener(new ValueEventListener(new ValueEventListener() {
#Override
public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
for(DataSnapshot val : dataSnapshot.getChildren()){
//I am not sure what record are you specifically looking for
//This is if you are getting the Key which is the record ID for your Coupon Object
if(val.getKey().contains("Hotel")){
//Do what you want with the record
}
//This is if your are querying for the hotel child
if(val.child("hotel").getValue(String.class).contains("Hotel")){
//Do what you want with the record
}
}
}
#Override
public void onCancelled(FirebaseError firebaseError) {
}
}
Don't load your whole database to filter out needed data. It produces unnecessary traffic which has to be loaded, calculated and deleted. Instead, use:
DatabaseReference myRef = FirebaseDatabase.getDatabaseReference();
Query searchQuery = myRef.child("Coupon").orderByChild("hotel").equalTo("yourSearchString");
To make this code work, you also have to add indexOn on your corresponding attribute in the rules (of Firebase Database console).
I am making my first app using Firebase database. I was able to access the database before, but then I updated my SDKs and couldn't access the Firebase database. This is the function I use
notedatabase = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance();
DatabaseReference mrootDatabaseReference = notedatabase.getReference();
DatabaseReference firstchildref =mrootDatabaseReference.child(initpath);
When I run this it gives getserviceinstance failed error. When I try to debug the program the error states notedatabase= null. I have also changed the rules of my database. How do I fix this?
Sorry, this is my first time asking questions here, if I've left any information out kindly let me know. Thank you.
EDIT : The App works fine now I tried using
String initpath = intent.getExtras().getString("initpath","");
databaseref = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference();
final DatabaseReference numberofsubjectsRef = databaseref.child(initpath);
Try this one. More details on see an official link.
DatabaseReference databaseTracks;
List<Track> tracks;
databaseTracks = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference("tracks").child(intent.getStringExtra(MainActivity.ARTIST_ID));
#Override
protected void onStart() {
super.onStart();
databaseTracks.addValueEventListener(new ValueEventListener() {
#Override
public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
tracks.clear();
for (DataSnapshot postSnapshot : dataSnapshot.getChildren()) {
Track track = postSnapshot.getValue(Track.class);
tracks.add(track);
}
TrackList trackListAdapter = new TrackList(ArtistActivity.this, tracks);
listViewTracks.setAdapter(trackListAdapter);
}
#Override
public void onCancelled(DatabaseError databaseError) {
}
});
}
Okay as you are posting it for first time please make sure this things you have done correctly before making an firebase messaging app using realtime database.
1) you have created a project in firebase and added you project name and package correctly.
2)If in your firebase project rules(as above image) have been defined make sure to provide rules in place of Null it should be true, if you have not opted for any firebase authentication of firebase UI implementation.
3)your Initpath for child should be always same for accessing the same thread of message.
I have the following data structure on firebase for the user MF0qeRA4p7djfjgXxqwFOck3m6p02. I want to get the value of item3 to populate a single field into the User interface on an Android App. I have been looking through samples on Stackoverflow, but all I have found are outdated and do not work with the current version of firebase. I'm new to firebase completely and this is my first app on android. I've got the oncreate user method to populate the users email address and add the 4 item fields, but retrieving the data I'm completely lost and I am not sure where to even begin.
-Users
---MF0qeRA4p7djfjgXxqwFOck3m6p02
------item1:"1"
------item2:"2"
------item3:"3"
------item4:"4"
According to what I can identify is, you are facing problem retrieving data from this reference. Here is the code:
final DatabaseReference databaseReference = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference("Users");
databaseReference.child("MF0qeRA4p7djfjgXxqwFOck3m6p02").addListenerForSingleValueEvent(new ValueEventListener() {
#Override
public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
Map<String, Object> map=(Map<String, Object>)dataSnapshot.getValue();
String item3=(String)map.get("item3");
display(item3);
}
#Override
public void onCancelled(DatabaseError databaseError) {
}
});
Hope this helps.
You can create a custom model and inside you can insert elements. Something like this:
public class Item {
private List<Object> ojects;
}
There you can save instance of Item on database. In this case you have more controll. Other case is to use push() method, that will generate a new encoded key, something like this:
mDatabase.child("items").push().put(new Object());
