The new paging library can also work with Firebase?



The new paging library can also work with Firebase real-time database or Cloud Firestore? I know that it works asynchronously but is there any way it can work with a real-time database?



Thanks!

Regarding Firestore, you can use FirestorePagingAdapter:


FirestorePagingAdapter



The FirestorePagingAdapter binds a Query to a RecyclerView by loading documents in pages. This results in a time and memory efficient binding.


FirestorePagingAdapter


RecyclerView



The FirestorePagingAdapter is built on top of the Android Paging Support Library.





Thanks for your answer. If we are using FirestorePagingAdapter we lose the real-time feature, is it correct?

@IoanaP. Peter is right, you can paginate using FirestorePagingAdapter and you're also right guessing that you'll lose the real-time feature. Please see Frank's answer from this post where he explains that FirestorePagingAdapter is designed to get data, not to listen for realtime updates.

@IoanaP. If you want to use the real-time feature you should use FirestoreRecyclerAdapter, binds a Query to a RecyclerView and responds to all real-time events included items being added, removed, moved, or changed. Best used with small result sets since all results are loaded at once. If you have large result sets, you can load data in small chunks and for that I recommend you see my answer from this post.

Firebase Auth - with Email and Password - Check user already registered

Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP Firebase Auth - with Email and Password - Check user already registered I want to check when a user attempts to signup with createUserWithEmailAndPassword() in Firebase user Authentication method, this user is already registered with my app. createUserWithEmailAndPassword() 8 Answers 8 To detect whether a user with that email address already exists, you can detect when the call to createUserWithEmailAndPassword () fails with auth/email-already-in-use . I see that @Srinivasan just posted an answer for this. createUserWithEmailAndPassword () auth/email-already-in-use Alternatively, you can detect that an email address is already used by calling fetchSignInMethodsForEmail() (previous called fetchProvidersForEmail() ). fetchSignInMethodsForEmail() fetchProvidersForEmail() When the user trying to create an user with same email address, the task response will be "Response: The email address is already in use by another account." mFirebas...

Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP Dynamically update html content plain JS So I have a script bound in my index.html, which literally has to fetch an array of jsons from an api, then dynamically update my page when get response. But as a result I'm getting an as the only update of my page. here is my script fetch(url) .then((resp) => resp.json()) .then((resp) => resp.results.forEach(item => fetch(item.url) .then((response)=> response.json()) .then((response) => pokeArr.push(response)) .catch(console.log) ) ).catch(console.log) const filler = () => if(!pokeArr) return 0 pokeArr.map((i,j)=> return `<tr>$i.name</tr>` ) const pokeindex = () => document.getElementById('a').appendChild(document.createElement(filler())) pokeindex() When I'm consoling it, I can see in the console all the responses I get, so I'm at least doing the fetching part right. What's parberakan ? What's pokeArr ? – T.J. Crowder Aug 8 at 12...

Creating a leaderboard in HTML/JS

Image
Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP Creating a leaderboard in HTML/JS I'm trying to create a top 10 leaderboard, for now, I've only implemented 3 players, but I'm coming across an issue. My script doesn't seem to be outputting anything on webpage. The purpose of the script is to compare 3 arrays, player1,player2,and player3 solely based off of score. Which is the 2nd index of each array. I want the script to list the players in order of highest score. This method doesn't really seem to be efficient, especially when I'll have to add 7 more players. Could someone suggest perhaps an easier approach, as well as show me why my script wont output the info. Here's the JS function leaderboard() { var player1 = name:"Thomas",date:"01/23/18",score:"201"; var player2 = name:"Michael",date:"03/24/17",score:"943"; var player3 = Name:"Lisa",date:"06/04/18",Score:"79"; if(player1[2]...
