How do I call data from Firebase nested in multiple child nodes?

Question

I am having trouble trying to access a nested child node in my firebase real-time database.

The error I am encountering is

com.google.firebase.database.DatabaseException: Can't convert object of type java.lang.String to type sg.edu.singaporetech.teamproject.users

This is how my database structure looks like:

I have seen solutions from here: How do I access the child nodes nested inside child node in Firebase database?

This is my code in trying to call the data from firebase:

    DatabaseReference databaseUsers;
    databaseUsers = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference("users");



        databaseUsers.addValueEventListener(new ValueEventListener() {
            @Override
            public void onDataChange(@NonNull DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
                //method is called whenever data at location is updated
                showData(dataSnapshot);
                }
            @Override
            public void onCancelled(@NonNull DatabaseError databaseError) {
            }
        });
        return view;
    }

    private void showData(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
        FirebaseUser currentUser = FirebaseAuth.getInstance().getCurrentUser();
        String userID = currentUser.getUid();

        for (DataSnapshot uniqueIDSnapshot : dataSnapshot.getChildren()) {
            //Loop 1 to go through all child nodes of users
            for(DataSnapshot vouchersSnapshot : uniqueIDSnapshot.child(userID).getChildren()){
                //loop 2 to go through all the child nodes of vouchers node
                users user = vouchersSnapshot.getValue(users.class);
            }
        }
    }

This is from my users class

package sg.edu.singaporetech.teamproject;

public class users {

    String id;
    String email;
    String level;
    String steps;
    String vouchers;

    public users() {
    }

    public users(String id, String email, String level) {
        this.id = id;
        this.email = email;
        this.level = level;
        this.steps = steps;
        this.vouchers = vouchers;
    }

    public String getId() {
        return id;
    }

    public String getEmail() {
        return email;
    }

    public String getLevel() {
        return level;
    }

    public String getSteps() { return steps;}

    public String getVouchers() { return vouchers;}

    public void setId(String id) {
        this.id = id;
    }

    public void setEmail(String email) {
        this.email = email;
    }

    public void setLevel(String level) {
        this.level = level;
    }

    public void setSteps(String steps) {
        this.steps = steps;
    }

    public void setVouchers(String vouchers) {
        this.vouchers = vouchers;
    }
}

So how do I not get the error and obtain specifically the "true" or "false" value as seen in the database structure of the current month, which is march19?

Really appreciate your help.

Answer 1

To retrieve true and false , try the following:

DatabaseReference ref = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference().child("users").child(userID).child("vouchers");
mDatabaseUsers.addValueEventListener(new ValueEventListener() {
  @Override
public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {

   String values     = dataSnapshot.child("april19").getValue(String.class);
   String boolValues = dataSnapshot.child("march19").getValue(String.class);
}

  @Override
public void onCancelled(DatabaseError databaseError) {

  }
});

Here you dataSnapshot is at child vouchers , then you easily access april19 and march19 values without iterating.
