I am trying to add an image to the user information in the real time database(firebase) for android. I have uploaded the image on the firebase storage but how will I be able to
You can use the method getDownloadUrl()
in the success listener to access the download URL:
@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if(requestCode==request_code&&resultCode==RESULT_OK){
Uri uri=data.getData();
StorageReference filepath=mStorage.child("Images").child(uri.getLastPathSegment());
filepath.putFile(uri).addOnSuccessListener(new OnSuccessListener() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(UploadTask.TaskSnapshot taskSnapshot) {
Uri downloadUrl = taskSnapshot.getDownloadUrl();
newStudent.child("image").setValue(downloadUrl);
}
});
}
}
As an aside, instead of using push()
, I recommend storing the user's data with the uid
as the key. This will make your data easier to find.
private DatabaseReference newStudent;
mCurrentUser=FirebaseAuth.getInstance().getCurrentUser();
newStudent=mDatabase.child(mCurrentUser.getUid());
newStudent.child("email").setValue(email);
// etc
