I have troubled in this code.. cant get the value :( i want to get value because i want to minus my powders stock..

mDatabase = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference("POWDERS");
        System.out.println("ABC0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000");
        mDatabase.child("powdername").equalTo(productname).addValueEventListener(new ValueEventListener() {
            @Override
            public void onDataChange(@NonNull DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
                for(DataSnapshot ds : dataSnapshot.getChildren()) {
                    powqty = ds.child("powderquantity").getValue(String.class);
//                            powqtyint = Integer.parseInt(powqty);
//                            powqtyint = powqtyint - (Integer.parseInt(sumofp)*100);
//                            powqty = Integer.toString(powqtyint);

                    System.out.println("AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" + powqty);

                }

            }

            @Override
            public void onCancelled(@NonNull DatabaseError databaseError) {

            }
        });
}
}

this is my database pic

You seem to want to query the data for all child nodes under POWDERS where the powdername property has a certain value.

You do that in Firebase with:

mDatabase = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference("POWDERS");
mDatabase.orderByChild("powdername").equalTo(productname).addValueEventListener(new ValueEventListener() {
    ...

Please spend some time studying the Firebase documentation on ordering and filtering data , as it should explain this type of use-case pretty well.

Aside from that, I highly recommend storing your numeric values as actual numbers in the database, as it prevents having to do error-prone conversions in your code.
