Android Smart Image View

Overview

SmartImageView is a drop-in replacement for Android's standard ImageView which additionally allows images to be loaded from URLs or the user's contact address book. Images are cached to memory and to disk for super fast loading.

Features

  • Drop-in replacement for ImageView
  • Load images from a URL
  • Load images from the phone's contact address book
  • Asynchronous loading of images, loading happens outside the UI thread
  • Images are cached to memory and to disk for super fast loading
  • SmartImage class is easily extendable to load from other sources

Installation & Basic Usage

Download the latest .jar file from github and place it in your Android app's libs/ folder.

Add a SmartImageView to your activity's xml layout:

<com.loopj.android.image.SmartImageView android:id="@+id/my_image" />

Get a reference to the layout's SmartImageView:

SmartImageView myImage = (SmartImageView) this.findViewById(R.id.my_image);

Load an image into the view from a URL:

myImage.setImageUrl("http://www.awesomeimages.com/myawesomeimage.jpg");

Load an image into the view from the phone's contact address book:

myImage.setImageContact(contactAddressBookId);
