title: Firebase Android count children/ badge
body: <p>I try to develop a simple shopping application. There will be a few product categories and I use different activity with ListView for every category. When User choose product category (say items1 ="drinks")- new screen opens and he can add "soda", "cola"... I want to add count badge on every category to show number of products per category.
  So, for example for "items" I need to display 5, for "items1" - 2 and for  "items10/11" - display 1:</p>

  <p>my ActivityItems1 code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>       private Firebase mRef;
         private String mUserId;
         private String itemsUrl;
         private TextView badge;
  
  
         itemsUrl = Constants.FIREBASE_URL + "/users/" + mUserId + "/items1";
  
  
  
      // Set up LisView
      final ListView listView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.listView);
      final ArrayAdapter&lt;String&gt; adapter = new ArrayAdapter&lt;&gt;(this,     android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, android.R.id.text1);
      listView.setAdapter(adapter);  
  
      // Find badge
           badge =(TextView)findViewById(R.id.badgeView);
  
  
      // Use Firebase to populate the list.
      new Firebase(itemsUrl)
              .addChildEventListener(new ChildEventListener() {
                  @Override
                  public void onChildAdded(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot, String   s) {
                      adapter.add((String)     dataSnapshot.child("title").getValue());
  
  
       Log.e(dataSnapshot.getKey(),    dataSnapshot.getChildrenCount() + "");
  
       badge.setText(dataSnapshot.getChildrenCount() + "");
                  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>After running the code I received Key and number of his children:
  E-KJGG2driQ6HJI8R7eve: 1
  E-KJGG3Ua6rmlQYn4IHF: 1</p>
  
  <p>it's always 1 child for every Key because Key=Product ID and child of the Key - it's title. <strong>But I need to count Keys/ Product IDs (products in category "drinks") and not his children</strong>...</p>
