I'm receiving these errors when I tried to populate a list view with firebase adapter using firebase UI
com.google.firebase.database.DatabaseException: Failed to convert value of type java.util.HashMap to String com.google.firebase.database.DatabaseException: Class java.util.HashMap has generic type parameters, please use GenericTypeIndicator instead
Here Is the code
DatabaseReference ref = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference();
DatabaseReference a = ref.child("info");
final FirebaseListAdapter<String> adapter =
new FirebaseListAdapter<String>(this,String.class,android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1,a) {
@Override
protected void populateView(View v, String model, int position) {
TextView text = (TextView) findViewById(android.R.id.text1);
text.setText(model);
}
here is an example of json data
"info" : {
"KSTUJILdwPN305Fs7ujhga4knlG3" : {
"File Info" : {
"-JFRkA855rfOU7GtcK4" : {
"Name" : "John",
"Adress" : "Test Adress",
"Favourite_food" : "Bread",
},
info node does not refer to your data model. It may contain children nodes. So to reach the model, you should use a reference like this.
DatabaseReference a = ref.child("info").child(info_id).child("File Info").child(file_id);
and you should have a FileInfo model instead of String model to use in
populateView(View v, FileInfo model, int position):
and model
public class FileInfo {
private String Name;
private String Adress;
private String Favourite_food;
public FileInfo() {
}
public FileInfo(String Name, String Adress, String Favourite_food) {
this.Name = Name;
this.Adress = Adress;
this.Favourite_food = Favourite_food;
}
public String getName() {
return Name;
}
public void setName(String Name) {
this.Name = Name;
}
public String getAdress() {
return Adress;
}
public void setAdress(String Adress) {
this.Adress = Adress;
}
public String getFavourite_food() {
return Favourite_food;
}
public void setFavourite_food(String Favourite_food) {
this.Favourite_food = Favourite_food;
}
}
