I have a number of child nodes in my firebase db and I want to delete only one child node.
Firebase firebase=new Firebase("..address..");
firebase.push().setValue(classObj);
//here classObj is a class object which has a getter and setter for an integer id
Now that I have pushed multiple objects I want to delete only one based on the id in the classObj
To remove data:
firebase.child(id).removeValue();
You might do well to have a look at the Firebase documentation for Android btw, which covers this and many more topics.
If you are using DatabaseReference for firebase
DatabaseReference dbNode = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference().getRoot().child("Node");
Here Node represents the child which you wish to delete
dbNode.setValue(null);
If you are using a dataSnapshot
i.e., while you are working on some data change events
dataSnapshot.getRef().setValue(null);
You need to run this code:
Firebase firebase=new Firebase(URL);
firebase.child(id).removeValue();
