Fetch posts from postId firebase & swift












0















I want to fetch the specific posts by they're postId. Is this something that is possible to do with firebase and swift?



Currently I'm getting a key from geofire which has all the postId keys that I want in it. Is it possible to get the post data relating to these postIds Here is my current attempt. My current attempt doesn't append any of the posts to my collectionView



var posts = [Post]()
func locationManager(_ manager: CLLocationManager, didUpdateLocations locations: [CLLocation]) {

let userLocation: CLLocation = locations[0] as CLLocation
let currentUserLocation = userLocation

let circleQuery = geoFire?.query(at: currentUserLocation, withRadius: 100.0)

guard let uid = Auth.auth().currentUser?.uid else { return }

_ = circleQuery?.observe(.keyEntered, with: { (key, location) in
print(key)

let ref = Database.database().reference().child("posts")
var postId = key

ref.child(uid).child(postId).observe(.value, with: { (snapshot) in
self.collectionView?.refreshControl?.endRefreshing()

guard let dictionaries = snapshot.value as? [String: Any] else { return }

dictionaries.forEach({ (key, value) in

guard let dictionary = value as? [String: Any] else { return }

guard let user = Auth.auth().currentUser?.uid as? User else { return }

var post = Post(user: user, dictionary: dictionary)
post.id = key

self.posts.append(post)
self.posts.sort(by: { (post1, post2) -> Bool in
return post1.creationDate.compare(post2.creationDate) == .orderedDescending
})
})
}, withCancel: { (error) in
print("There was an error getting the posts:", error)
})

self.locationManager.stopUpdatingLocation()
})
}

  • Remove forEach() since you are already in the postId node. You can get the data using your "dictionaries" variable. To get the data, do like this. let caption = dictionaries["caption"] as! String

use snapshot haschild to check



let ref = Database.database().reference().child("posts")

ref.observeSingleEvent(of: .value, with: { (snapshot) in
if snapshot.hasChild("(self.yourValueToCompare!)"){
print("Exists in Database")


}else{
print("Does not Exists in Database")
}
})
