I posted a similar question here, but this problem is different. When first data is added, nothing is shown in the listview. When second data is added, first data is shown in listview. And when third data is added, first data is replaced by second data, and second data is shown in listview. I have tried adding adapter.notifyDataSetChanged(), but still the same result.
Data is retrieved (and synchronized) from the Firebase Database to your app asynchronously. This means that your sectionDetailsArrayList may be modified at any time. When you modify the data, you need to tell the adapter about it, so that it can update the view.
private void fetchData(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
sectionDetailsArrayList.clear();
SectionDetails sectionDetails = dataSnapshot.getValue(SectionDetails.class);
sectionDetailsArrayList.add(sectionDetails);
// tell the adapter that we changed its data
adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
}
This should update the view. But since you clear out the list for every child that gets added or changed, the app will only show the latest added/modified item.
Setting up a synchronized array in Firebase is somewhat involved, since you have to deal with all event types and with the fact that evens can happen in any order. For that reason we create the FirebaseUI library, which contains adapters from the Firebase Database to a ListView and RecyclerView.

I want to get data from a Firebase database in a list view. When I open the page, it appears as follows:
When I go back and open it again, it now appears like this:
The database contains the following data:
My two problems are:
It takes a lot of time to retrieve the data
More data is retrieved than expected - it is repeated in the listview.
My code:
public class CustomAdapter extends BaseAdapter{
Context c;
ArrayList<Doctor> doctors;
public CustomAdapter(Context c, ArrayList<Doctor> doctors) {
this.c = c;
this.doctors = doctors;
}
#Override
public int getCount() {
return doctors.size();
}
#Override
public Object getItem(int position) {
return doctors.get(position);
}
#Override
public long getItemId(int position) {
return position;
}
#Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
if(convertView==null)
{
convertView= LayoutInflater.from(c).inflate(R.layout.model,parent,false);
}
TextView nameTxt= (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.nameTxt);
TextView propTxt= (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.propellantTxt);
TextView descTxt= (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.descTxt);
final Doctor s= (Doctor) this.getItem(position);
nameTxt.setText(s.getDoctorName());
propTxt.setText(s.getSpecialist());
descTxt.setText(s.getAdress());
//ONITECLICK
convertView.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Toast.makeText(c,s.getDoctorName(),Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
});
return convertView;
}
and this for model class
public class Doctor {
String doctorName,specialist,adress;

public String getDoctorName() {

Receive and Bind Data:
//RECEIVE DATA
String title = i.getExtras().getString("TITLE_KEY");
String detail = i.getExtras().getString("DETAIL_KEY");
String location = i.getExtras().getString("LOCATION_KEY");
String budget = i.getExtras().getString("BUDGET_KEY");
//BIND DATA
titleTxt.setText(title);
detailTxt.setText(detail);
locationTxt.setText(location);
budgetTxt.setText(budget);
The problem in your code is that you are declaring the ArrayList<Project> projects=new ArrayList<>(); outside onChildAdded() and onChildChanged() methods. This means that your projects ArrayList is null, due the asyncronious behaviour of those methods, which are called before even you add those objects to the list.
To solve this, you need to declare that ArrayList inside fetchData() method right before that for loop.
This change will solve your problem.
I am developing application which keeps user expenses, I wrote CustomAdapter

but even I have some data saved in firebase it returns null and passes null to fields(textview) at first but when I add new item it show existing data in the Firebase. One of my friend said that I am calling data asnychronously but I didn't understand it.I want to data be shown directly whenever activity is opened. Any help is appreciated,Thanks
When I open activity:
After I add new data:
myRef.addListenerForSingleValueEvent(new ValueEventListener() {
#Override
public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
fetchdata();
}
#Override
public void onCancelled(DatabaseError databaseError) {
}
});
This will fetch appropriate data
Your problem is that your are initializing your adapter before fetching the data from the db.
adapter = new ExpenseAdapter(ExpenseActivity.this, getExpenses());
The getExpenses() method is performing an asynchronous operation
Try passing instead the list directly and call the getExpenses method as well
adapter = new ExpenseAdapter(ExpenseActivity.this, expenselist);
getExpenses()
Then when the notifyDatasetChanged is called in the fetchData method it will update the list.
I'm new to Firebase. I'm trying to query the firebase database and display all the child objects of the results in a ListView. I've no errors but nothing is being displayed. It doesn't crash but it doesn't do anything either. Please help me out.
The contents of my database:
Here's my code for data retrieval:
imgbtn.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
key = search.getText().toString().trim();
Firebase newRef = new Firebase("https://stockmanager-142503.firebaseio.com/Items");
Query query = newRef.orderByChild("Idno").equalTo(key);
query.addChildEventListener(new ChildEventListener() {
#Override
public void onChildAdded(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot, String s) {
Map<String,Item> td = (HashMap<String,Item>) dataSnapshot.getValue();
List<Item> valuesToMatch = new ArrayList<Item>(td.values());
myAdapter myadapter=new myAdapter(getActivity(),valuesToMatch);
mlistView.setAdapter(myadapter);
}
#Override
public void onChildChanged(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot, String s) {
}
#Override
public void onChildRemoved(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
}
#Override
public void onChildMoved(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot, String s) {
}
#Override
public void onCancelled(FirebaseError firebaseError) {
AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(getActivity());
builder.setMessage(firebaseError.getMessage())
.setTitle("Error!")
.setPositiveButton(android.R.string.ok, null);
AlertDialog dialog = builder.create();
dialog.show();
}
});
Here's my adapter class:
public class myAdapter extends BaseAdapter {
private List<Item> items;
private Context mContext;
public myAdapter(Context mContext, List<Item> items) {
this.mContext=mContext;
this.items=items;
}
#Override
public int getCount() {
return 0;
}
#Override
public Object getItem(int i) {
return null;
}
#Override
public long getItemId(int i) {
return 0;
}
#Override
public View getView(int i, View view, ViewGroup viewGroup) {
LinearLayout linearLayout;
Item item=items.get(i);
if (view == null) {
linearLayout = (LinearLayout) LayoutInflater.from(mContext).inflate(R.layout.rowitem, viewGroup, false);
} else {
linearLayout = (LinearLayout)view;
}
TextView text1=(TextView)linearLayout.findViewById(R.id.text1);
TextView text2=(TextView)linearLayout.findViewById(R.id.text2);
TextView text3=(TextView)linearLayout.findViewById(R.id.text3);
TextView text4=(TextView)linearLayout.findViewById(R.id.text4);
TextView text5=(TextView)linearLayout.findViewById(R.id.text5);
text1.setText(item.getIdno());
text2.setText(item.getName());
text3.setText(item.getBrand());
text4.setText(item.getCost());
text5.setText(item.getDate());
return null;
}
}
Here is the item class:
public class Item {
private String Type;
private String Name;
private String Brand;
private String Cost;
private String Date;
private String Store;
private String Idno;
public String getName() {
return Name;
}
public String getIdno() {
return Idno;
}
public String getCost() {
return Cost;
}
public void setDate(String date) {
Date = date;
}
public String getBrand() {
return Brand;
}
public String getStore() {
return Store;
}
public String getType() {
return Type;
}
public String getDate() {
return Date;
}
}
I fixed it myself. Apparently, the query returned a list of objects and hence I replaced the Hashmap with a for loop to getchildren and add them to a List. But my listview simply wouldn't display the retreived data. Finally, I used the firebase UI List Adpater given below and that fixed it. Thanks everyone!
imgbtn.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
key = scanContent;
Query q = dbRef.orderByChild("idno").equalTo(key);
FirebaseListAdapter<Item> adapter =new FirebaseListAdapter<Item>(getActivity(),Item.class,R.layout.rowitem,q) {
#Override
protected void populateView(View v, Item item, int position) {
TextView text1=(TextView)v.findViewById(R.id.text1);
TextView text2=(TextView)v.findViewById(R.id.text2);
TextView text3=(TextView)v.findViewById(R.id.text3);
TextView text4=(TextView)v.findViewById(R.id.text4);
TextView text5=(TextView)v.findViewById(R.id.text5);
text1.setText(item.getIdno());
text2.setText(item.getName());
text3.setText(item.getBrand());
text4.setText(item.getCost());
text5.setText(item.getDate());
solditem=item;
}
};
sell.setText("Add this result to Sold Items List?");
sList.setAdapter(adapter);
}
});

The data is deleted from database as expected, but the data that gets deleted remains inside the listview. I added adapter.notifyDataSetChanged() but still the listview is not updating.
The data is also updated as expected, but when update button is clicked, the data is updated infinitely. I can see the listview as well as the database keep on appending the data, and can only be stopped by closing the app.
I have tried to move SectionDetails newSD = new SectionDetails(code, seats) and updateRef.child(key).setValue(newSD) to outside for loop but the data doesn't get updated because the key is not passed to the path outside the for loop.
I haven't thoroughly looked at all the code you posted and may not understand your processing completely. There are two things that might be causing some of the problems you described.
In FirebaseHelper, method onChildChanged() calls fetchData(), which adds the changed section details to the array list. Shouldn't you be updating the existing section details instead of adding them again? Also, in onChildRemoved(), the section details are not removed from the array list. Don't they need to be removed?
In CustomAdapter the click listeners for your buttons add anonymous ValueEventListeners. Because they are anonymous, you have no way of removing them when they are no longer needed. ValueEventListeners added with addValueEventListener() remain active until removed. If your goal is to get the data once, use addListenerForSingleValueEvent().
