[SOLVED] Searching for a value in pyrebase

Issue

I have check pyrebase and i want to search for the IDNumber of each user.

i have tried using

db.child("Users").order_by_child("IDNumber").equal_to(2011445392).get()

But it gave me an error related to index not defined. Is there a way to search for IDNumber similar to SQL?

Solution

Your query is correct. The error about index not defined occurs because you haven't set any rule on IDNumber.

You need to configure rules on your indexes like this :

{
  "rules": {
    "Users": {
      ".indexOn": ["IDNumber"]
    }
  }
}
