store 存取数据数组对象_如何从Firestore获取对象数组

What would be the right way to query a field that is an array of maps.

Currently the structure is

Collection1

Document1

-papers:

(0):

-Name:abc

-Id:123

(1):

-Name:xyz

-Id:456

And this is my code

DocumentReference docRef = db.collection("Collection1").document("Document1");

docRef.get().addOnCompleteListener(new OnCompleteListener() {

@Override

public void onComplete(@NonNull Task task) {

if (task.isSuccessful()) {

DocumentSnapshot document = task.getResult();

if (document != null && document.exists()) {

//?? how can I retrieve papers

}

}

});

Basically do I retrieve it and cast it as an ArrayList> and then loop through it to create my final ArrayList ?

Or how does it work ?

解决方案Although Cloud Firestore can store arrays, it does not support querying array members or updating single array elements.

If you only want to get the entire papers array you need to iterate over a Map like this:

Map map = document.getData();

for (Map.Entry entry : map.entrySet()) {

if (entry.getKey().equals("papers")) {

Log.d("TAG", entry.getValue().toString());

}

}

But note, even if papers object is stored in the database as an array, entry.getValue() returns an ArrayList, not an array.

Edit 13 Aug 2018:

According to the updated documentation regarding array membership, now it is possible to filter data based on array values using whereArrayContains() method. A simple example would be:

CollectionReference citiesRef = db.collection("cities");

citiesRef.whereArrayContains("regions", "west_coast");

This query returns every city document where the regions field is an array that contains west_coast. If the array has multiple instances of the value you query on, the document is included in the results only once.
