Listview inside a Tabview with Firebase data

Question

I’m trying to input firebase data into a listview q is already inside a Tabview, but when I try to load firebase data nothing comes. I started Listview inside the onCreateView method, like this:

    Firebase dref;
    ListView listView;
    ArrayList<String> list = new ArrayList<>();

    @Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
                             Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_horario, container, false);

        ArrayAdapter<String> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(getActivity().getApplicationContext(),
                android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1 , list);
        Firebase.setAndroidContext(getContext());
        dref = new Firebase("https://intercampi-bd69d.firebaseio.com");
        listView = (ListView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.list_view1);
        listView.setAdapter(adapter);

        dref.addValueEventListener(new ValueEventListener() {
            @Override
            public void onDataChange(com.firebase.client.DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
                String input = dataSnapshot.getValue(String.class);
                list.add(input);

            }

            @Override
            public void onCancelled(FirebaseError firebaseError) {

            }
        });
        return rootView;
    }

here is the full Activity code:

public class HorarioActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements ListAdapter {


private SectionsPagerAdapter mSectionsPagerAdapter;



private ViewPager mViewPager;


@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_horario);

    Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
    setSupportActionBar(toolbar);

    mSectionsPagerAdapter = new SectionsPagerAdapter(getSupportFragmentManager());

    // Set up the ViewPager with the sections adapter.
    mViewPager = (ViewPager) findViewById(R.id.container);
    mViewPager.setAdapter(mSectionsPagerAdapter);

    TabLayout tabLayout = (TabLayout) findViewById(R.id.tabs);
    tabLayout.setupWithViewPager(mViewPager);

    FloatingActionButton fab = (FloatingActionButton) findViewById(R.id.fab);
    fab.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View view) {
            Snackbar.make(view, "Replace with your own action", Snackbar.LENGTH_LONG)
                    .setAction("Action", null).show();
        }
    });

}


@Override

    getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_horario, menu);
    return true;

@Override

    int id = item.getItemId();

    //noinspection SimplifiableIfStatement

        return true;
    }

    return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);

Thanks in advance for any feedback

Answer 1

What happens is that you are adding dice into your Arraylist after you have set the Adapter. Adapter does not know that you have added a new item unless you advise.

For this you should call the method every time you add a new data to your arrayList:

adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
