I want all child list from Firebase in android.

I have implement this code but its not working.

mFirebaseRef = new Firebase(FIREBASE_URL);

mFirebaseRef.addValueEventListener(new ValueEventListener() {
    @Override
    public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
        List<String> td = (ArrayList<String>) dataSnapshot.getValue();
        //notifyDataSetChanged();
    }

    @Override
    public void onCancelled(FirebaseError firebaseError) {

    }
});

Answer 1

Use GenericTypeIndicator to get List of Child Node from Firebase ArrayList structured DataBase

   //Start of Code
   Firebase ref = new Firebase(FIREBASE_URL);
   ref.addValueEventListener(new ValueEventListener(){
      @Override
      public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot snapshot){
         GenericTypeIndicator<List<YourClassName>> t = new GenericTypeIndicator<List<YourClassName>>{};
         List<YourClassName> messages = snapshot.getValue(t);
         Log.d("Get Data Size", messages.size());
          }
      }
      @Override
      public void onCancelled(FirebaseError firebaseError){
          Log.e("The read failed: ",firebaseError.getMessage());
      }
   });

Works Like a Charm

final DatabaseReference senderDb = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference(Constant.NODE_MESSAGE).child(myId + "_" + otherId);

    senderDb.addValueEventListener(new ValueEventListener() {
        @Override
        public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
            Map<String, Object> td = (HashMap<String,Object>) dataSnapshot.getValue();

            for (DataSnapshot childDataSnapshot : dataSnapshot.getChildren()) {
                DatabaseReference objRef = senderDb.child( childDataSnapshot.getKey());
                Map<String,Object> taskMap = new HashMap<String,Object>();
                taskMap.put("is_read", "1");
                objRef.updateChildren(taskMap); //should I use setValue()...?
                Log.v("Testing",""+ childDataSnapshot.getKey()); //displays the key for the node
            }

            //notifyDataSetChanged();
        }

        @Override
        public void onCancelled(DatabaseError databaseError) {

        }

    });

In my case only given solution worked fine.

Screenshot of Firebase ArrayList structure:

How to fetch whole list from Firebase from DataSnapshot.

GenericTypeIndicator<Map<String, List<Education>>> genericTypeIndicator = new GenericTypeIndicator<Map<String, List<Education>>>() {};
Map<String, List<Education>> hashMap = dataSnapshot.getValue(genericTypeIndicator);

for (Map.Entry<String,List<Education>> entry : hashMap.entrySet()) {
      List<Education> educations = entry.getValue();
        for (Education education: educations){
             Log.i(TAG, education.Degree);
         }
}

Education.java: (Model class).

public class Education implements Serializable{

    public String Degree;
    public String Result;
}

Hope this would works fine.

your problem is why your code doesn't work.

this your code:

Firebase ref = new Firebase(FIREBASE_URL);

  ref.addValueEventListener(new ValueEventListener() {
      @Override
      public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot snapshot) {
          Log.e("Count " ,""+snapshot.getChildrenCount());
          for (DataSnapshot postSnapshot: snapshot.getChildren()) {
            <YourClass> post = postSnapshot.getValue(<YourClass>.class);
            Log.e("Get Data", post.<YourMethod>());
          }
      }
      @Override
      public void onCancelled(FirebaseError firebaseError) {
          Log.e("The read failed: " ,firebaseError.getMessage());
      }
  })

you miss the simplest thing: getChildren()

FirebaseDatabase db = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance();
DatabaseReference reference = FirebaseAuth.getInstance().getReference("Donald Trump");

reference.addValueEventListener(new ValueEventListener() {
   @Override
   public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {

            int count = (int) dataSnapshot.getChildrenCount(); // retrieve number of childrens under Donald Trump

            String[] hairColors = new String[count];

            index = 0;
            for (DataSnapshot datas : dataSnapshot.getChildren()){

                hairColors[index] = datas.getValue(String.class);

            }
            index ++

            for (int i = 0; i < count; i++)
            Toast(MainActivity.this, "hairColors : " + hairColors[i], toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

            }

    }

        @Override
        public void onCancelled(DatabaseError databaseError) {

        }

    });

I hope below code works

Firebase ref = new Firebase(FIREBASE_URL);

  ref.addValueEventListener(new ValueEventListener() {
      @Override
      public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot snapshot) {
          Log.e("Count " ,""+snapshot.getChildrenCount());
          for (DataSnapshot postSnapshot: snapshot.getChildren()) {
            <YourClass> post = postSnapshot.getValue(<YourClass>.class);
            Log.e("Get Data", post.<YourMethod>());
          }
      }
      @Override
      public void onCancelled(FirebaseError firebaseError) {
          Log.e("The read failed: " ,firebaseError.getMessage());
      }
  });

Answer 6

mDatabase.child("token").addListenerForSingleValueEvent(new ValueEventListener() {
            @Override
            public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
              for (DataSnapshot snapshot:dataSnapshot.getChildren())
              {
                 String key= snapshot.getKey();
                 String value=snapshot.getValue().toString();
              }
            }

            @Override
            public void onCancelled(DatabaseError databaseError) {
                Toast.makeText(ListUser.this,databaseError.toString(),Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            }
        });

Only work If child have no SubChild
