How to move Firebase child from one node to another in Android?

I am working on a project where user request for our valet services and on the other end valet accepts request.

I am using using Firebase as backend and on request customer uid is save on 'request' child.

When valet accepts request, customer uid should move from 'request' node to 'on progress' node.

How can i do that?

I recommend using this :

public void moveFirebaseRecord(Firebase fromPath, final Firebase toPath)
{
    fromPath.addListenerForSingleValueEvent(new ValueEventListener()
    {
        @Override
        public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot)
        {
            toPath.setValue(dataSnapshot.getValue(), new Firebase.CompletionListener()
            {
                @Override
                public void onComplete(FirebaseError firebaseError, Firebase firebase)
                {
                    if (firebaseError != null)
                    {
                        System.out.println("Copy failed");
                    }
                    else
                    {
                        System.out.println("Success");
                    }
                }
            });
        }

        @Override
        public void onCancelled(FirebaseError firebaseError)
        {
            System.out.println("Copy failed");
        }
    });
}

This come from this source : https://gist.github.com/katowulf/6099042 . I used it several times in my JavaEE code and also in my android app.

You pass your fromPath and toPath. This is a copy tought and not a move, so the original will remain at his original place too. If you would like to delete, you can do a set value on the fromPath just after the System.out.println("Success"); .

As of compile firebase-database:11.0.1, this is the same function with the new class references (https://firebase.google.com/support/guides/firebase-android July 05 2017)

private void moveGameRoom(final DatabaseReference fromPath, final DatabaseReference toPath) {
        fromPath.addListenerForSingleValueEvent(new ValueEventListener() {
            @Override
            public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
                toPath.setValue(dataSnapshot.getValue(), new DatabaseReference.CompletionListener() {
                    @Override
                    public void onComplete(DatabaseError firebaseError, DatabaseReference firebase) {
                        if (firebaseError != null) {
                            System.out.println("Copy failed");
                        } else {
                            System.out.println("Success");

                        }
                    }
                });

            }

            @Override
            public void onCancelled(DatabaseError databaseError) {

            }
        });
    }
