How to display data in RecyclerView with CardView from Android firebase-realtime-database?

Question

I already have implemented this and it runs successfully. the problem is, I have more than 3 items under each unique key in Firebase. But it only displays the last item added to the firebase.

This is the code below. Thanks in advance :)

mAuth = FirebaseAuth.getInstance();
currentUserId = mAuth.getCurrentUser().getUid();
database = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance();
rootRef = database.getReference("rootDataRef");
ex_childRef = rootRef.child("ExchangeItemsData");
exrecyclerView = view.findViewById(R.id.exchangeRecyclerVeiwId);

GridLayoutManager glm = new GridLayoutManager(getContext(), 2);
    exrecyclerView.setLayoutManager(glm);
    fab = view.findViewById(R.id.load_exchange_fab_addId);
    fabMenu = view.findViewById(R.id.load_exchange_menuId);
    fab.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            AddExchangeItemFragment exFrag = new AddExchangeItemFragment();
            FragmentManager fragmentManager = getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager();
            FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction()
                    .replace(R.id.exchange_fragment_holderId, exFrag, "exc");
            fragmentTransaction.addToBackStack(null);
            fragmentTransaction.commit();
            fabMenu.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        }
    });
    return view;
}

@Override
public void onStart() {
    super.onStart();
    FirebaseRecyclerOptions<ImportExchangeItemModel> exoptions =
            new FirebaseRecyclerOptions.Builder<ImportExchangeItemModel>()
                    .setQuery(ex_childRef, ImportExchangeItemModel.class)
                    .build();
    FirebaseRecyclerAdapter<ImportExchangeItemModel, ExchangeItemViewHolder> exadapter
            = new FirebaseRecyclerAdapter<ImportExchangeItemModel, ExchangeItemViewHolder>(exoptions) {
        @NonNull
        @Override
        public ExchangeItemViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(@NonNull ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
            View v=LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.exchange_single_row,parent,false);
            ExchangeItemViewHolder holder=new ExchangeItemViewHolder(v);
            return holder;
        }

        @Override
        protected void onBindViewHolder(@NonNull final ExchangeItemViewHolder holder, final int position, @NonNull ImportExchangeItemModel model) {

            final String userIds = getRef(position).getKey();
             ex_childRef.addListenerForSingleValueEvent(new ValueEventListener() {
                 @Override
                 public void onDataChange(@NonNull DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
                     for (DataSnapshot dSnapshot:dataSnapshot.getChildren()){
                         for (DataSnapshot ds:dSnapshot.getChildren()){
                             final String exitemName=ds.child("exchangeProductName").getValue().toString();
                             final String exitemDesc =ds.child("productDesc").getValue().toString();
                             final String exitemImg =ds.child("imageUrl").getValue().toString();
                             holder.exItemName.setText(exitemName);
                             holder.exItemDesciption.setText(exitemDesc);
                             Picasso.get().load(exitemImg).into(holder.exItemImage);
                             holder.itemView.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
                                 @Override
                                 public void onClick(View v) {
                                     ExchangeItemsFragment fragment=new ExchangeItemsFragment();
                                     Bundle argss=new Bundle();
                                     argss.putString("exdataRoot",userIds);
                                     fragment.setArguments(argss);
                                     FragmentManager fragmentManager=getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager();
                                     FragmentTransaction transaction=fragmentManager.beginTransaction();
                                     transaction.replace(R.id.exchange_fragment_holderId,fragment,"exdetails");
                                     transaction.addToBackStack(null);
                                     transaction.commit();
                                 }
                             });
                         }
                     }
                 }

                 @Override
                 public void onCancelled(@NonNull DatabaseError databaseError) {

                 }
             });
        }
    };




    exrecyclerView.setAdapter(exadapter);
    exadapter.startListening();
}
public static class ExchangeItemViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder{
    TextView exItemName,exItemDesciption;
    ImageView exItemImage;

    public ExchangeItemViewHolder(View itemView) {
        super(itemView);
        exItemName=itemView.findViewById(R.id.exchangeitemNameIdTV);
        exItemDesciption=itemView.findViewById(R.id.exchangeitemDescriptionCardViewId);
        exItemImage=itemView.findViewById(R.id.exchangeItemImageCardId);
    }
}

}

and this is the firebase-database JSON format

Help me out. Thank you.

Answer 1

You aren't getting anything in your RecyclerView because you are passing a FirebaseRecyclerOptions object to your adapter that contains a wrong query. You are missing a child, the user id. In order to solve this, please change the following line of code:

ex_childRef = rootRef.child("ExchangeItemsData");

to

String uid = FirebaseAuth.getInstance().getCurrentUser().getUid();
ex_childRef = rootRef.child("ExchangeItemsData").child(uid);

And your problem will be solved.

Answer 2

You don't need to addListenerForSingleValueEvent again. FirebaseRecyclerAdapter already received each item as ImportExchangeItemModel and return in onBindViewHolder. Using it to display.
