I want to do public chat with firebase database to pass classes at the University. I have problem because, I learn how to write this and I watched tutorials on youtube. I found project and I did, but firebase change a few things with FirebaseListAdapter. For that I changed code.
Currently I have this:
I know what's happen (probably) , but I need idea how to fix It.
1) ActivityChat is based on tutorials, on the internet.
public class ActivityChat extends AppCompatActivity {
private static int SIGN_IN_REQUEST_CODE = 1;
private FirebaseListAdapter<ChatMsg> adapter;
Query query = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference().child("Chats").limitToLast(50);
FirebaseListOptions<ChatMsg> options = new FirebaseListOptions.Builder<ChatMsg>()
.setQuery(query, ChatMsg.class)
.setLayout(R.layout.activity_chat)
.build();
EditText input;
RelativeLayout chat;
FloatingActionButton fab;
@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (requestCode == SIGN_IN_REQUEST_CODE) {
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Pomyślnie zalogowany!", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
} else {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Nie można zalogować się. Spróbuj później.", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
}
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_chat);
input = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.input);
chat = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.id.activity_chat);
fab = (FloatingActionButton) findViewById(R.id.fab);
fab.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference("Chats").push().setValue(new ChatMsg(input.getText().toString(),
FirebaseAuth.getInstance().getCurrentUser().getEmail()));
input.setText("");
input.requestFocus();
displayChatMessage();
}
});
if (FirebaseAuth.getInstance().getCurrentUser() == null) {
startActivityForResult(AuthUI.getInstance().createSignInIntentBuilder().build(), SIGN_IN_REQUEST_CODE);
} else {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Witaj: " + FirebaseAuth.getInstance().getCurrentUser().getEmail(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
private void displayChatMessage() {
ListView listMessage = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.list_of_message);
adapter = new FirebaseListAdapter<ChatMsg>(options) {
@Override
protected void populateView(@NonNull View v, @NonNull ChatMsg model, int position) {
TextView messageText, messageUser, messageTime;
messageText = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.message_text);
messageUser = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.message_user);
messageTime = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.message_time);
messageText.setText(model.getMessageText());
messageUser.setText(model.getMessageUser());
messageTime.setText(DateFormat.format("dd-MM-yyyy (HH:mm:ss)", model.getMessageTime()));
}
};
listMessage.setAdapter(adapter);
}
@Override
protected void onStart() {
super.onStart();
adapter.startListening();
}
@Override
protected void onStop() {
super.onStop();
adapter.stopListening();
}
}
2) When I push button to go to the Chat, I see activity for 2 seconds and I have crash apk (Apk has stopped).
