I need to add a background image to a ListView. Normally I would call listview.setBackground(myImage)
. But the image is coming from server and so I need to use Picasso to load the image into the background of my ListView. How do I do that?
Define an anonymous subclass of com.squareup.picasso.Target
Picasso.with(yourContext)
.load(yourImageUri)
.into(new Target() {
@Override
@TargetApi(16)
public void onBitmapLoaded(Bitmap bitmap, Picasso.LoadedFrom from) {
int sdk = android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT;
if(sdk < android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES.JELLY_BEAN) {
yourListView.setBackgroundDrawable(new BitmapDrawable(bitmap));
} else {
yourListView.setBackground(new BitmapDrawable(getResources(), bitmap));
}
}
@Override
public void onBitmapFailed(Drawable errorDrawable) {
// use error drawable if desired
}
@Override
public void onPrepareLoad(Drawable placeHolderDrawable) {
// use placeholder drawable if desired
}
});
Subclass ListView
and implement com.squareup.picasso.Target
public class PicassoListView extends ListView implements Target {
public PicassoListView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
}
public PicassoListView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
super(context, attrs, defStyle);
}
@Override
@TargetApi(16)
public void onBitmapLoaded(Bitmap bitmap, Picasso.LoadedFrom from) {
int sdk = android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT;
if(sdk < android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES.JELLY_BEAN) {
setBackgroundDrawable(new BitmapDrawable(bitmap));
} else {
setBackground(new BitmapDrawable(getResources(), bitmap));
}
}
@Override
public void onBitmapFailed(Drawable errorDrawable) {
// use error drawable if desired
}
@Override
public void onPrepareLoad(Drawable placeHolderDrawable) {
// use placeholder drawable if desired
}
}
Which lets you do this:
Picasso.with(yourContext)
.load(yourImageUri)
.into(yourListView);
