RealmList.addAll() throws Primary key value already exists - android

I'm having an issue when I try to call addAll() on RealmList<Tile> with accounts which are already stored in realm file.
realmList.addAll(tiles) is called based on a response from an API call which may return Tiles containing one ore more accounts already stored in realm. The object return by the API looks like the one below:
public class ActivityStreamData extends RealmObject {
#PrimaryKey
private long id = DB_ID;
public String timestamp;
public RealmList<Tile> activity = new RealmList<>();
public MessageListMeta metadata = new MessageListMeta();
}
public class Tile extends RealmObject {
public String type;
public RealmList<Account> accounts;
public Account account;
}
public class Account extends RealmObject {
#PrimaryKey
public long id;
public String timestamp;
public String name;
public String email;
}
The call fails when trying to add tiles to the activityStream.activity list when fetching more.
Any way to force addAll to act as a createOrUpdate call

Custom constructor error with Realm model class

Realm throws the following error message if you have a custom constructor within the Realm model class.
Class <class name> must declare a public constructor with no arguments if it contains custom constructors
Below is the Realm model class.
#RealmClass
public class User implements RealmModel {
public User(Integer id, String email) {
this.id = id;
this.email = email;
}
How do you get rid of it?
Realm requires every Realm model class to have a public constructor with no arguments. This is because of the method createObject(Class<E> clazz). For example, to get the User class to work, it'd look like the following.
#RealmClass
public class User implements RealmModel {
public User() {
}
public User(Integer id, String email) {
this.id = id;
this.email = email;
}

How can i serialize a Realm object which has a custom class

I'm having a problem with building Realm object which has a custom class.
#Parcel(
value = Parcel.Serialization.BEAN,
analyze = { Message.class })
#RealmClass
public class Message implements Comparable<Message>, RealmModel {`
#PrimaryKey
#Index
private long id;
#JsonProperty("thread_id")
long threadId;
#JsonProperty("message")
public String message;
#JsonProperty("user")
public User user;
...
}
When server send json response, try to parse as Message realm object with
realm.createObjectFromJson(MesssageMessage.class, JSONObject)
The problem is User. I've got an compile error "Filed user is not supported".
Below is the User class which is not realm object.
#JsonIgnoreProperties("incomplete_signed_up")
public class User implements KeepClassFromProguard, Parcelable {
public static final Parcelable.Creator<User> CREATOR = new
Parcelable.Creator<User>() {
#Override
public User createFromParcel(Parcel in) {
return new User(in);
}
#Override
public User[] newArray(int size) {
return new User[size];
}
};
public long id;
#JsonProperty("account_id")
private long accountId;
#JsonProperty("display_name")
public String display_name;
#JsonProperty("nick_name")
public String nickname;
#JsonProperty("user_detail")
public UserDetail userDetail;
...
}
I read https://gist.github.com/cmelchior/ddac8efd018123a1e53a and http://parceler.org/#getting_parceler, but I could't get answer yet.
I can't change every class to realm object because they all have another custom classes.
Does anyone know how this is handled? Hope there is any good example.
Thanks.
All references in a RealmModel must reference other RealmModel classes. This is the only way we can persist them.
You can #Ignore the user field, but then it will not be saved by Realm.

No setter/field for found Android Firebase

I used FirebaseRecyclerAdapter to get all the childs of "Pro" using a Model class named " Spacecraft" and now I want to retrieve all the candidates into a child of Pro like "1"
I created a public static "candidat" into "Spacecraft" and I used the setters and getters but still the same error
This is my database:
this is the Model Class
public class Spacecraft{
private String name;
private String desc;
private String last;
private candidat candidat;
public Spacecraft.candidat getCandidat() {
return candidat;
}
public void setCandidat(Spacecraft.candidat candidat) {
this.candidat = candidat;
}
public Spacecraft() {
}
public String getName() {
return name;
}
public void setName(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
public String getDesc() {
return desc;
}
public void setDesc(String desc) {
this.desc = desc;
}
public String getLast() {
return last;
}
public void setLast(String last) {
this.last = last;
}
public static class candidat{
private String info;
private String namecandid;
public candidat(){}
public String getInfo() {
return info;
}
public void setInfo(String info) {
this.info = info;
}
public String getNamecandid() {
return namecandid;
}
public void setNamecandid(String namecandid) {
this.namecandid = namecandid;
}
}
}
This is my code for FirebaseRecyclerAdapter
#Override
protected void onStart() {
super.onStart();
FirebaseRecyclerAdapter<Spacecraft, candidatviewholder> firebaseRecyclerAdapter = new FirebaseRecyclerAdapter<Spacecraft, candidatviewholder>(
Spacecraft.class,
R.layout.candidat,
candidatviewholder.class,
query){
#Override
protected void populateViewHolder(candidatviewholder viewHolder, Spacecraft model, int position) {
viewHolder.setName1(model.getCandidat().getNamecandid());
viewHolder.setInfo1(model.getCandidat().getInfo());
}
};
rv.setAdapter(firebaseRecyclerAdapter);
}
The error:
No setter/field for key1 found on class com.example.ilyas.evotingapplication.Spacecraft$candidat
I had this error but the above solutions didn't fix it. Hopefully, this alternate solution will help others. If you have that error occur for almost every variable, chances are that you have Proguard enabled and it is removing the un-used getter and setter methods. To fix this, add a line similar to this to your proguard-rules.pro file:
-keep class com.example.yourapp.ObjectClass
where ObjectClass is the name of your java object class that is stored to Firebase.
I think it's just that your data models on Firebase and in Java differ.
In your java class, the Spacecraft class has a candidat field of type Candidat. But, in the database, the candidat field is really a nested object (map), containing one key Key1, which value is a Candidat structure.
So, depending on what did you want to achieve:
if you wanted each spacecraft to have exactly one candidat: save the database object properly, so {info: "info 1", namecandid: "name 1"} is saved directly under candidat field, not one level deeper, so the field has type Candidat in the code.
if you wanted each spacecraft to have a few candidats: instead of private Candidat candidat field, it should be typed Map<String, Candidat>, because that's the type it has in your database screenshot.
Work for me:
-keepclassmembers class com.myPackageName.MyClassName { *; }

Firebase with Realm. De-serializing POJO class

I have data in my firebase DB, everything works fine until I try to De-serialize the data.
Error: argument 1 has type io.realm.RealmList, got java.util.ArrayList
Here's my code:
DatabaseReference root = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().
getReferenceFromUrl("https://swing-8792d.firebaseio.com/playlist");
Query playlistQuery = root.orderByKey().equalTo(key);
playlistQuery.addListenerForSingleValueEvent(new ValueEventListener() {
#Override
public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
for (DataSnapshot child : dataSnapshot.getChildren()) {
Log.d("Child", child + "");
Playlist receivedPlaylist = child.getValue(Playlist.class);
Playlist playlist = new Playlist();
playlist.setCreatedBy(receivedPlaylist.getCreatedBy());
playlist.setName(receivedPlaylist.getName());
playlist.setMyMap(receivedPlaylist.getMyMap());
playlist.setQrKey(receivedPlaylist.getQrKey());
playlist.setCount(receivedPlaylist.getCount());
playlist.setId(receivedPlaylist.getId());
playlist.setTracks(receivedPlaylist.getTracks());
mPlaylist.add(playlist);
}
This is my POJO class:
#RealmClass
public class Playlist extends RealmObject {
String name;
Long id;
RealmList<Track> tracks;
Integer count;
String createdBy;
RealmList<UserMap> myMap;
String qrKey;
public RealmList<UserMap> getMyMap() {
return myMap;
}
public void setMyMap(RealmList<UserMap> myMap) {
this.myMap = myMap;
}
public Playlist(){}
public String getQrKey() {
return qrKey;
}
public void setQrKey(String qrKey) {
this.qrKey = qrKey;
}
public String getCreatedBy() {
return createdBy;
}
public void setCreatedBy(String createdBy) {
this.createdBy = createdBy;
}
public RealmList<Track> getTracks() {
return tracks;
}
public void setTracks(RealmList<Track> tracks) {
this.tracks = tracks;
}
public String getName() {
return name;
}
public void setName(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
public Long getId() {
return id;
}
public void setId(Long id) {
this.id = id;
}
public Integer getCount() {
return count;
}
public void setCount(Integer count) {
this.count = count;
}
}
If I try to de-serialize with Normal POJO class (i.e Removing Realm) it works fine.
Firebase won't work with classes that do not have default constructor or private variables i.e no public getter/setter.
A easier solution in your case would be to make a middleware class that is the same pojo just not extending RealmObject. Next initialise your RealmObject subclass using the values of the pojo.
Pseudo code
class SimplePojoPlaylist {
public String variable;
}
class Playlist extends RealmObject {
public String variable;
}
Then first cast into SimplePojoPlaylist
for (DataSnapshot child : dataSnapshot.getChildren()) {
SimplePojoPlaylist receivedPlaylist = child.getValue(SimplePojoPlaylist.class);
Playlist playList = new Playlist();
playList.variable = receivedPlaylist.variable;
}
RealmList is not a supported type for deserialization. Your database checks its structure and deduces that tracks should be an ArrayList. Then, when it tries to convert it, it finds that the types do not match.
Check this link from the docs:
Also, it is a good practice to make your objects immutable to avoid unwanted access and/or modifications.
Creating an empty object from scratch and then calling setter methods to define its state is not a very good pattern, because it can create a situation where an object is accessed before when its state is "broken".
If you need to create an object that is flexible, has a few mandatory fields and some optional, consider using the Builder pattern, although to do it you'd have to redesign your model.
wikipedia - Builder
If you don't need/want to use a builder, my advice is:
1) Make the empty constructor private and create another public one that requires all the fields.
2) Change your tracks field to be of type "List". Then, if you need the object to return a RealmList create another getter method such as tracksAsRealmList() that makes a RealmList out of the member list and returns it.
3) Make sure that the "Track" model has an empty private constructor, a public one with all of its parameters and that all of its fields are supported by firebase deserialization.
4) Unless strictly necessary, make your object fields private and set its value through a setter method.
I hope this helps you.
