I'm trying to retrieve data from my Firebase Realtime Database but encountering this issue.

I'm suspecting I got this error due to my path in DatabaseReference. I tried different paths but none seemed to work.

Here's my database (The generated texts are userID)

My class that stores the data structure

public class ERDataStructure {

private String temperature;

private String humidity;



public ERDataStructure() {



}

    public ERDataStructure(String temperature, String humidity) {

        this.temperature = temperature;

        this.humidity = humidity;

    }



public String getTemperature(){



    return temperature;

}

public void setTemperature(String temperature){



    this.temperature = temperature;

}



public String getHumidity() {



    return humidity;

}

public void setHumidity(String humidity) {



    this.humidity = humidity;

}

}

My ReadingScreen.java (MainActivity)

import ...





public class ReadingScreen extends AppCompatActivity {



//Firebase Initialization

FirebaseAuth mAuth;

FirebaseAuth.AuthStateListener mAuthListener;

private DatabaseReference myRef;

private FirebaseDatabase mFirebaseDatabase;



private static final String TAG = "ReadingScreen";

ERDataStructure mData;

private TextView textViewTemperatureNumber, textViewHumidityNumber;



@Override

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    setContentView(R.layout.activity_reading_screen);

    //Find Views

    textViewHumidityNumber = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.humidity_number);

    textViewTemperatureNumber = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.temperature_number);

    // Initiate Firebase

    mAuth = FirebaseAuth.getInstance();

    mFirebaseDatabase = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance();

    FirebaseUser user = mAuth.getCurrentUser();

    String userID = user.getUid();



     // Non-working Reference, but code works

    //myRef = mFirebaseDatabase.getReference();

    //myRef = mFirebaseDatabase.getReference().child(userID);



     //Crashing Reference

      myRef = mFirebaseDatabase.getReference().child(userID).child("ERDataStructure");

    //myRef = mFirebaseDatabase.getReference("ERDataStructure");

    //

    retrieveData();

}

public void gotoMainMenu (View view)

{

    Intent intent = new Intent(ReadingScreen.this, MainMenu.class);

    startActivity(intent);

}

private void retrieveData(){

    myRef.addChildEventListener(new ChildEventListener() {

        @Override

        public void onChildAdded(@NonNull DataSnapshot dataSnapshot, @Nullable String s) {

            ERDataStructure ds = dataSnapshot.getValue(ERDataStructure.class);

            textViewTemperatureNumber.setText("" +ds.getTemperature());

            textViewHumidityNumber.setText(""+ds.getHumidity());



        }



        @Override

        public void onChildChanged(@NonNull DataSnapshot dataSnapshot, @Nullable String s) {

            ERDataStructure ds = dataSnapshot.getValue(ERDataStructure.class);

            textViewTemperatureNumber.setText("" +ds.getTemperature());

            textViewHumidityNumber.setText(""+ds.getHumidity());

        }



        @Override

        public void onChildRemoved(@NonNull DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {



        }



        @Override

        public void onChildMoved(@NonNull DataSnapshot dataSnapshot, @Nullable String s) {



        }



        @Override

        public void onCancelled(@NonNull DatabaseError databaseError) {



        }

    });

    myRef.addValueEventListener(new ValueEventListener() {



        @Override

        public void onDataChange(@NonNull DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {

            List<ERDataStructure> arraylist = new ArrayList<ERDataStructure>();

            if (dataSnapshot != null && dataSnapshot.getValue() != null){

                //FirebaseUser user = mAuth.getCurrentUser();

                //String userID = user.getUid();

                for (DataSnapshot a : dataSnapshot.getChildren()){



                    ERDataStructure dataStructure = new ERDataStructure();

                    dataStructure.setTemperature(a.getValue(ERDataStructure.class).getTemperature());

                    dataStructure.setHumidity(a.getValue(ERDataStructure.class).getHumidity());

                    arraylist.add(dataStructure);

                }

            }

        }



        @Override

        public void onCancelled(@NonNull DatabaseError databaseError) {



        }

    });

}

}

The error was recorded in

ERDataStructure ds = dataSnapshot.getValue(ERDataStructure.class);

Edit: After adding another level to my database, it manages to run

You need to use ValueEventListener instead of ChildEventListener, so change it to this:

myRef = mFirebaseDatabase.getReference().child(userID).child("ERDataStructure");



myRef.addValueEventListener(new ValueEventListener() {

   @Override

public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {

   ERDataStructure ds = dataSnapshot.getValue(ERDataStructure.class);

 }

   @Override

public void onCancelled(DatabaseError databaseError) {

   }

});

In this case you use ValueEventListener, because when you use childEventListener you are basically looping inside this snapshot and returning the value of humidity as type String. It is like looping over dataSnapshot.getChildren() in the valueventlistener.
