How to store an array to Firebase via Unity SDK
I am trying to store an Int32 Array and bool Array to Firebase but it isn't working for me. I have searched on various places, but couldn't find a solution. Can anyone tell me, how one can store an array to Firebase Real-time DB from Unity.
I am using System.Reflection to get all the public static fields of the class UserPrefs.
Here is the code, I am trying to do this job...
System.Type type = typeof(UserPrefs);
FieldInfo fields = type.GetFields();
foreach (var field in fields) {
if (user != null)
dbReference.Child("users").Child(user.UserId).Child(field.Name).SetValueAsync(field.GetValue(null));
else
Debug.LogError("There is no user LoggedIn to write...");
}
Above code saves all values other than arrays. Error given on arrays is following:
InvalidCastException: Cannot cast from source type to destination
type.
Firebase.Database.Internal.Utilities.Validation.ValidateWritableObject
(System.Object object)
Any help will be much appreciated...

You need a class like this.
public class MyClass
{
public int intArray = new int[10];
}
Then you can write that object to the Firebase like this.
public void WriteArrays()
{
MyClass temp = new MyClass();
for (int i = 0; i < temp.intArray.Length; i++)
{
temp.intArray[i] = i;
}
databaseReference.Child("MyArrayNode").SetRawJsonValueAsync(JsonUtility.ToJson(temp));
}
databaseReference is a reference to your root.
Same way you can do this for your bool also.

There can be many other arrays of other types. I need to make the code generic. It's not a good solution to make class for all possible arrays, iterate in a loop and then save to Firebase. All this will be done again while loading the data.

Passing json to firebase is the preferred way to communicate with firebase. Design according to it.

So, you are saying I need to design my own json object, in case I want to save arrays to Firebase. If so, can you please give me any example code to make a json for arrays?

I am saying that whenever you want to pass more than one thing to Firebase, use json. You can use in-built json utility of Unity.
