Glide-4.0.0 Missing placeholder, error, GlideApp and does not resolve its method placeholder,error

Question

I want to use the Glide Android library to download an image and show in ImageView.

In the previous version we used:

Glide.with(mContext).load(imgUrl)
                .thumbnail(0.5f)
                .placeholder(R.drawable.PLACEHOLDER_IMAGE_NAME)
                .error(R.drawable.ERROR_IMAGE_NAME)
                .crossFade()
                .diskCacheStrategy(DiskCacheStrategy.ALL)
                .into(imageView);

But I have seen Glide documentation:

it says use GlideApp.with() instead Glide.with()

My concern is a missing placeholder, error, GlideApp, and other options.

I am using

 compile 'com.github.bumptech.glide:glide:4.0.0'

Where am I doing wrong? With reference to here.

How has GlideApp.with() been used?

The API is generated in the same package as the AppGlideModule and is named GlideApp by default. Applications can use the API by starting all loads with GlideApp.with() instead of Glide.with():

GlideApp.with(fragment)
   .load(myUrl)
   .placeholder(placeholder)
   .fitCenter()
   .into(imageView);

Answer 1

Try using RequestOptions:

RequestOptions requestOptions = new RequestOptions();
requestOptions.placeholder(R.drawable.ic_placeholder);
requestOptions.error(R.drawable.ic_error);

Glide.with(context)
     .setDefaultRequestOptions(requestOptions)
     .load(url).into(holder.imageView);

EDIT

If .setDefaultRequestOptions(requestOptions) does not work, use .apply(requestOptions):

Glide.with(MainActivity.this)
            .load(url)
            .apply(requestOptions)
            .into(imageview);
 // or this
 Glide.with(MainActivity.this)
            .load(url)
            .apply(new RequestOptions().placeholder(R.drawable.booked_circle).error(R.drawable.booked_circle))
            .into(imageview);

 // or this
 Glide.with(MainActivity.this)
            .load(url)
            .apply(RequestOptions.placeholderOf(R.drawable.booked_circle).error(R.drawable.))
            .into(imageview);

Here are some other changes in Glide-4

• How to use requestOptions.circleCropTransform();
• How to use Cross fades()
• How to use GlideDrawableImageViewTarget in Glide-4
• How to use GifDrawable as target parameter

If you use Glide package dependencies, compile 'com.github.bumptech.glide:glide:3.7.0', then use should be to use the below code:

GlideApp
    .with(your context)
    .load(url)
    .centerCrop()
    .placeholder(R.drawable.loading_image)
    .error(R.drawable.error_image)
    .into(myImageView);

Note: As in the documentation,

Round Pictures: CircleImageView/CircularImageView/RoundedImageView are known to have issues with TransitionDrawable (.crossFade() with .thumbnail() or .placeholder()) and animated GIFs, use a BitmapTransformation (.circleCrop() will be available in v4) or .dontAnimate() to fix the issue.

The latest updated version compile com.github.bumptech.glide:glide:4.1.1 then use should be to use the below code:

RequestOptions options = new RequestOptions()
                    .centerCrop()
                    .placeholder(R.drawable.default_avatar)
                    .error(R.drawable.default_avatar)
                    .diskCacheStrategy(DiskCacheStrategy.ALL)
                    .priority(Priority.HIGH)
                    .dontAnimate()
                    .dontTransform();

Glide.with(this)
     .load(url)
     .apply(options)
     .into(imageView);

If you want to use GlideApp you have to add to dependencies annotation processor like on the screenshot:

Then include an AppGlideModule implementation in your application:

@GlideModule
public final class MyAppGlideModule extends AppGlideModule {}

Do not forget about the @GlideModule annotation. Then you need to Build project. And GlideApp will be automatically generated.
