How to load image from URL in Jetpack Compose?

Viewed 25615

Well, I am studying the Compose UI and I am stucking in basic things. One of them is show a image from URL with Glide.

I have tried the below code but the delegates (onResourceReady and onLoadCleared) are not being called.

Did I miss something?

@Composable
fun loadPicture(url: String, contentDescription:String, modifier: Modifier = Modifier) {

  val bitmapState = remember { mutableStateOf<Bitmap?>(null) }
  Glide.with(LocalContext.current).asBitmap().load(url).into(
    object : CustomTarget<Bitmap>() {
        override fun onResourceReady(resource: Bitmap, transition: Transition<in Bitmap>?) {
            bitmapState.value = resource
        }
        override fun onLoadCleared(placeholder: Drawable?) {}
    }
)

  bitmapState.value?.let {
    Image(
        contentDescription = contentDescription,
        bitmap = it.asImageBitmap(),
        modifier = modifier
    )
  }
}

You can use Coil for compose:

Add the dependency:

implementation("io.coil-kt:coil-compose:2.0.0-rc01")

and use it like this:

Image(
    painter = rememberAsyncImagePainter("https://www.example.com/image.jpg"),
    contentDescription = null,
    modifier = Modifier.size(128.dp)
)
