Fetch data from nested nodes in Firebase

I am building my first project in android using Firebase.

I have build a Firebase's database which is having main node as post, media as its child node, media node can contain multiple values for a particular post or can have one value inside it.

So i want to fetch media child node values with particular post node.

Could you please help me out.

Any help will deeply appreciated.

First you need to read docs to know how to retrieve data from firebase.

and your data will be like this ... 

final Firebase ref = new Firebase("URL/posts");
    ref.addListenerForSingleValueEvent(new ValueEventListener() {
        @Override
        public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
            for (DataSnapshot userSnapshot : dataSnapshot.getChildren()) {
//u can handle your variables name in GetData class
                GetData posts = userSnapshot.getValue(GetData.class);

In another way..

                DatabaseReference  databaseReference = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference().child("posts");
                String user_id = firebaseAuth.getCurrentUser().getUid();
               databaseReference.child(user_id).child("media").getValue("user_id").getValue(etc);

You might save last line as String to reuse it anywhere.

UPDATE:

And to Fitch data You have to use Firebase adapter, example

If just want to fetch the value once, you can do like this.

FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference("posts").child("your_post_item_id").child("media").addListenerForSingleValueEvent(new ValueEventListener() {
        @Override
        public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {

              for (DataSnapshot children : dataSnapshot.getChildren()) {
                  YourMediaModel mediaItem = children.getValue(YourMediaModel.class);
                  //add you mediaItem to list that you provided
              }
        }

        @Override
        public void onCancelled(DatabaseError databaseError) {

        }

Firebase ref = new Firebase(YOUR_FIREBASE_URL);
            String postNode ="KddShng........";
            ref.child("posts/"+postNode).child("media").addChildEventListener(new ChildEventListener() {
                @Override
                public void onChildAdded(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot, String s) {
                        Log.e("!_@@_Key : >",dataSnapshot.getKey()); // you will get key of Media node
                }

                @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) {

                }
            });

Try something like this

FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference("posts").child(UID).child("media");

Where UID is the key of the particular post node.

PS: this returns something like a promise, for which you need to attach a listener for. (because this is real time)
