If the user has already been created, check Firebase for the correct code location?… here is a solution to the problem.
If the user has already been created, check Firebase for the correct code location?
I created a way to get a user’s Facebook data, log them in, and create a “user” for them in my Firebase database. This method addUser() also creates and sets variables for the said user. But I have to keep the method, log in so that it creates my variables, and then comment out the method for future testing, otherwise it will reset all values.
So where can I add “addUser()” to create said user for the first time and make sure it never calls it again, as long as the user already exists?

Solution
You need to set a preference like FIRST_LAUNCH and check if it’s true every time a user logs in. The first time you start the application, FIRST_LAUNCH preferences are not established. So call your addUser() function to create a new entry in your FireBase database.
SharedPreferences pref = getSharedPreferences(Constants.ApplicationTag, Activity.MODE_PRIVATE);
if (!pref.contains(Constants.FIRST_LAUNCH)) {
addUser();
pref.edit().putBoolean(Constants.FIRST_LAUNCH, true).commit();
}
So you might think that if the user uninstalls your app and then reinstalls it, the preference will disappear and the addUser() function will be called again. No problem, as long as the path to the sub-attribute is the same, you won’t get a new Firebase entry. These values are replaced with a specific path, if it exists, along with the user’s current information.
Now if you
want to check if your user already exists in the Firebase database, you need to add a listener like this. I’ve attached a code example for better understanding.
Firebase rootRef = new Firebase("https://<url>.firebaseio.com/users/");
Firebase userRef = rootRef.child(mAuthData.getUid() + "/");
userRef.addListenerForSingleValueEvent(new ValueEventListener() {
@Override
public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
if (dataSnapshot.exists()) {
User exists. Do nothing
} else addUser();
}
@Override
public void onCancelled(FirebaseError firebaseError) {}
});
