Boolean not appearing in Firestore object
0
I have a Firebase Collection that keeps track of a user's message threads by storing objects called MessageThreads as documents. Here are that object's class/constructors:
public class MessageThread {
private String partnerName;
private String partnerID;
private String threadID;
private Message lastMessage;
private boolean notificationsOn;
public MessageThread() {
}
public MessageThread(String partnerName, String partnerID, String threadID, boolean notificationsOn) {
this.partnerName = partnerName;
this.partnerID = partnerID;
this.threadID = threadID;
this.notificationsOn = notificationsOn;
}
public MessageThread(String partnerName, String partnerID, String threadID, Message lastMessage, boolean notificationsOn) {
this.partnerName = partnerName;
this.partnerID = partnerID;
this.threadID = threadID;
this.lastMessage = lastMessage;
this.notificationsOn = notificationsOn;
}
public String getPartnerID() {
return partnerID;
}
public void setPartnerID(String partnerID) {
this.partnerID = partnerID;
}
public String getThreadID() {
return threadID;
}
public void setThreadID(String threadID) {
this.threadID = threadID;
}
public boolean areNotificationsOn() {
return notificationsOn;
}
public void setNotificationsOn(boolean notificationsOn) {
this.notificationsOn = notificationsOn;
}
public String getPartnerName() {
return partnerName;
}
public void setPartnerName(String user1) {
this.partnerName = user1;
}
public Message getLastMessage() {
return lastMessage;
}
public void setLastMessage(Message lastMessage) {
this.lastMessage = lastMessage;
}
}
When the messaging activity is launched for a new thread, the notificationsOn boolean is set to true and a Thread object is created using the second (4 argument) constructor:
private void getSetThreadDetails(final String convoID) {
final DocumentReference threadReference = mFirestore.collection("users").document(mSignedInUserID).collection("threads").document(convoID);
threadReference.get().addOnCompleteListener(new OnCompleteListener<DocumentSnapshot>() {
@Override
public void onComplete(@NonNull Task<DocumentSnapshot> task) {
if (task.isSuccessful()) {
DocumentSnapshot snapshot = task.getResult();
if (!snapshot.exists()) {
notificationsOn = true;
Log.d(TAG,"notifications when thread details set: " +String.valueOf(notificationsOn));
MessageThread newMessageThread = new MessageThread(mPartnerName, mPartnerID, convoID, notificationsOn);
threadReference.set(newMessageThread);
}
}
}
});
}
However, in Firebase, the stored MessageThread is not showing an entry for notificationsOn even as it is set to true right before being sent to Firebase. Where does it go?

You have a setter for notificationsOn, but you don't have a getter. Firestore (by way of JavaBean convention) needs to find the method by its correct name:
public boolean getNotificationsOn() {
return this.notificationsOn;
}

Alternatively, just mark the field as public and remove the getter and setter:public class MessageThread { ... public boolean notificationsOn;

@FrankvanPuffelen but then there would be one public field commingled with 4 other private fields that have proper getters and setters in this example. :-(
