FireBase Query. DataSnapshot

Question

I need help on getting the \"message\" Object from this DataSnapshot result

DataSnapshot { key = user-4, value = {-JvFuwKX7r7o0ThXc0x8={sender=unit_owner, messag         


        

Answer 1

The value will be returned as an Object, as you've stated, but you can actually cast it to Map since you know it should be a map.

So, do something like this:

Map val = (Map) dataSnapshot.getValue();
String message = (String) val.get("message");
String sender = (String) val.get("sender");
