How to separate data into different databases? - database

Question

I have a database where I want to add and store information about a particular destination or activity. In the insert information page, I have a section where user can select either destination or activity as its category. However, all these are being stored into one database but I want to have different ones for each.
This is the current code that adds them into one database:
void addDestOrAct(String name, String details, var category) {
String key = destdatabaseref
.child('Database')
.child('DestinationsandActivities')
.push()
.key;
destdatabaseref
.child('Database')
.child('DestinationsandActivities')
.child(name)
.set({
'id': key,
'name': name,
'description': details,
'category': category
});
nameController.clear();
descriptionController.clear();
Fluttertoast.showToast(
timeInSecForIosWeb: 4,
gravity: ToastGravity.CENTER,
msg: "It has been added!");
Navigator.pop(context);
}
I want to put something like if (category = 'Activity') then add into destdatabaseref.child('Database').child('Activities') instead of .child('DestinationsandActivities').
Selection of category and inserting data code:
Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.only(right: 290),
child: Text(
'Category :',
style: TextStyle(fontSize: 15, color: Colors.grey),
),
),
SizedBox(height: 13),
Container(
height: 40,
child: ListView(
scrollDirection: Axis.horizontal,
children: [
_categoryType('Destination'),
SizedBox(width: 10),
_categoryType('Activity'),
],
),
),
SizedBox(height: 40),
ElevatedButton(
style: ElevatedButton.styleFrom(
primary: Color(0xFF3d5a89),
padding:
EdgeInsets.symmetric(horizontal: 45, vertical: 10),
textStyle: TextStyle(
fontWeight: FontWeight.w500,
color: Colors.white,
fontSize: 15)),
onPressed: () {
if (_formKey.currentState!.validate()) {
if (nameController.text.isNotEmpty &&
descriptionController.text.isNotEmpty) {
addDestOrAct(nameController.text,
descriptionController.text, _categorySelected);
} else
return null;
}
},
child: Text('Add')
)
Category type widget code:
Widget _categoryType(String title) {
return InkWell(
child: Container(
height: 70,
width: 120,
decoration: BoxDecoration(
color: _categorySelected == title
? Color(0xFF5a893d)
: Color(0xFF3d5a89),
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(15),
),
child: Center(
child: Text(
title,
style: TextStyle(fontSize: 13, color: Colors.white),
),
),
),
onTap: () {
setState(() {
_categorySelected = title;
});
},
);
}
How can I can add information into different databases based on category? I have the database 'DestinationsandActivities' for now but would really prefer it to be 'Destinations' and 'Activities'.

Thanks to #Frank van Puffelen, it was simply :
if (category == 'Activity') {
//code here
});
}
if (category == 'Destination') {
//code here
});
}
