when quering the database has the object but getValue() will return null












3















I keep user per unique value into real time firebase as display at this link image:
get user according to email - database firebase
I want to get user by email
so I try to doing that like this:



 private void getUserFromRealtimeFirebase(String email) {
mFirebaseDatabase = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance();
mDatabaseReference = mFirebaseDatabase.getReference().child("user");
Query query = mDatabaseReference.orderByChild("email").equalTo(email);

query.addValueEventListener(new ValueEventListener() {
@Override
public void onDataChange(@NonNull DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
Log.i("TAG", "dataSnapshot value = " + dataSnapshot.getValue().toString());

if (dataSnapshot.exists()) {
Log.d("Tag", "user exists");
}
}

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

}
});
}


but I always get at callback listener: dataSnapshot: key = user , value = null even when email exists.

I wander what wrong?

          EDIT:



          If you don't want to pass userId, use this query:



          mDatabaseReference = mFirebaseDatabase.getReference();
          Query query = mDatabaseReference.orderByChild("user/email").equalTo(email);




          You are missing the user-id level.
          You should change your code to:



          private void getUserFromRealtimeFirebase(String email, String userId) {
          mFirebaseDatabase = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance();
          mDatabaseReference = mFirebaseDatabase.getReference().chlid(userId).child("user");
          Query query = mDatabaseReference.orderByChild("email").equalTo(email);
          ...
          ...
          }


          Btw I would consider re-arranging the data structure to -
          newsapp -> users -> {userId} -> {name, image, firebase-token, email....}.



          Also, on the callback - first check if dataSnapshot.exists() and only after that use getValue(), even if inside a log, to avoid null pointer exception.
