Load image from auto download url

While calling my url, which downloads an image from server automatically. I need to display this image on an Android ImageView. I usually using Piccaso library to load image from url but that not helping me here, is there any way to load image from auto download url to an Android ImageView?
Auto download url example is in here(wallpaperswide.com/download/bike_chase-wallpaper-2560x1600.jpg)

Well if dont want to use library like Piccaso try something like this:
public class AsyncTaskLoadImage extends AsyncTask<String, String, Bitmap> {
private final static String TAG = "AsyncLoadImage";
private ImageView imageView;
public AsyncTaskLoadImage(ImageView imageView) {
this.imageView = imageView;
}
#Override
protected Bitmap doInBackground(String... params) {
Bitmap bitmap = null;
try {
URL url = new URL(params[0]);
bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream((InputStream)url.getContent());
} catch (IOException e) {
Log.e(TAG, e.getMessage());
}
return bitmap;
}
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(Bitmap bitmap) {
StrictMode.ThreadPolicy policy = new StrictMode.ThreadPolicy.Builder().permitAll().build();
StrictMode.setThreadPolicy(policy);
imageView.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
}
}
And you call in your activity like:
String url = "YOUR_LINK_HERE";
new AsyncTaskLoadImage(imageView).execute(url);
OR
With less code try something like this answer:
URL url = new URL("YOUR_LINK_HERE");
Bitmap bmp = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(url.openConnection().getInputStream());
imageView.setImageBitmap(bmp);

Display Images in Recyclerview without using any library [duplicate]

I'm trying to download an image using a URL and a button in my app. When I'm running it on my phone, I,m not able to download the image. Can anyone please point out the problem with this. Thanks for the help in advance :)
This is my code.
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
ImageView download;
public void downloadImage(View view){
DownloadImage image = new DownloadImage();
Bitmap result;
try {
result = image.execute("https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Bart_Simpson_200px.png").get();
download.setImageBitmap(result);
}
catch(Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
download = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imageView);
}
public class DownloadImage extends AsyncTask<String, Void, Bitmap>{
#Override
protected Bitmap doInBackground(String... urls) {
URL url;
HttpURLConnection urlConnection = null;
try {
url = new URL(urls[0]);
urlConnection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
urlConnection.setDoInput(true);
urlConnection.connect();
InputStream in = urlConnection.getInputStream();
Bitmap Image = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(in);
in.close();
return Image;
}
catch (MalformedURLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
}
}
}

you can download image from url in two ways
1.you can user Glide library to load image from url look the below code it can help you in simple way
compile this library
implementation 'com.github.bumptech.glide:glide:4.6.1'
than load image like this
Glide.with(MainActivity.this)
.load(url)
.apply(new RequestOptions().placeholder(R.drawable.booked_circle).error(R.drawable.booked_circle))
.into(imageview);
2 .try this if you dont want to use third party library
new DownloadImage(imamgeview).execute(url);
create a Async Task
public class DownloadImage extends AsyncTask<String, Void, Bitmap> {
ImageView bmImage;
public DownloadImage(ImageView bmImage) {
this.bmImage = (ImageView ) bmImage;
}
protected Bitmap doInBackground(String... urls) {
String urldisplay = urls[0];
Bitmap mIcon11 = null;
try {
InputStream in = new java.net.URL(urldisplay).openStream();
mIcon11 = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(in);
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.d("Error", e.getStackTrace().toString());
}
return mIcon11;
}
protected void onPostExecute(Bitmap result) {
bmImage.setImageBitmap(result);
}
}
i hope that it will work in your case

You did not call the function
downloadImage(view);
In the oncreate (after the findviewbyid line)
Also check if the internet permision is in the Android Manifest file :
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
Having said that you should use a library like Glide\Picasso\Ion etc... much better than asynctask for this purpuse
https://github.com/bumptech/glide - Glide
https://github.com/koush/ion - Ion
http://square.github.io/picasso/ - picasso
Hope it helped.

How to read image from server via emulator

I want to read image from server using android studio via emulator. Please any one help me because I had tried a lot of ways but not yet success.
My peace of code are like this.
In Acitivity.java file code is like this.
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Button btn=(Button)findViewById(R.id.button);
imageView=(ImageView)findViewById(R.id.imageView);
btn.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
iv = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imageView);
bitmap = getBitmapFromURL("http://10.0.2.2/img.bmp");
iv.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
}
});
}
And I use this Function.
public Bitmap getBitmapFromURL(String src){
try{
URL url= new URL(src);
HttpURLConnection connection=(HttpURLConnection)url.openConnection();
connection.setDoInput(true);
connection.connect();
InputStream input=(connection).getInputStream();
Bitmap myBitmap= BitmapFactory.decodeStream(input);
return myBitmap;
}catch (Exception e){
e.printStackTrace();
Toast.makeText(this,e.getMessage(),Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
return null;
}
}
Please any one help me.

Use Picasso for downloading and caching images.Add this in your dependencies using compile 'com.squareup.picasso:picasso:2.5.2' if you are using android studio otherwise add the jar in your libs.
it's a one line code to manage everything :
Picasso.with(context).load("http://i.imgur.com/DvpvklR.png").into(imageView);
just pass your url and you are done.

I try many things at last I found this I think this will useful for you. So try this.
Do this in your Activity.
new DownloadImageTask(your_imageview).execute("http://10.0.2.2/img.bmp);
And method is like this.
public class DownloadImageTask extends AsyncTask<String, Void, Bitmap> {
ImageView bmImage;
public DownloadImageTask(ImageView bmImage) {
this.bmImage = bmImage;
}
#Override
protected void onPreExecute() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onPreExecute();
}
protected Bitmap doInBackground(String... urls) {
String urldisplay = urls[0];
Bitmap mIcon11 = null;
try {
InputStream in = new java.net.URL(urldisplay).openStream();
mIcon11 = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(in);
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e("Error", e.getMessage());
e.printStackTrace();
}
return mIcon11;
}
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(Bitmap result) {
super.onPostExecute(result);
bmImage.setImageBitmap(result);
}
}

Setting image from url

I have an image view in my Android app, where I have to set a simple image from url. I tried the below code, but it doesn't set the image from url.
try {
URL url = new URL("https://drive.google.com/...");
HttpURLConnection connection = (HttpURLConnection)url.openConnection();
connection.setDoInput(true);
connection.connect();
InputStream stream = connection.getInputStream();
Bitmap teamBmpImage = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(stream);
teamImgView.setImageBitmap(teamBmpImage);
}
catch (Exception e) {
}
Could someone guide me to achieve this please?
UPDATED CODE: Which gives Nullpointer exception
public class AboutActivity extends ActionBarActivity {
ImageView teamImgView;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_about);
teamImgView = (ImageView) this.findViewById(R.id.teamImageView);
new DownloadImageTask(teamImgView).execute("http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/2d/images/examples/strawberry.jpg");
}
class DownloadImageTask extends AsyncTask<String, Void, Bitmap> {
ImageView bmImage;
public DownloadImageTask(ImageView bmImage) {
this.bmImage = bmImage;
}
#Override
protected void onPreExecute() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onPreExecute();
//pd.show();
}
protected Bitmap doInBackground(String... urls) {
String urldisplay = urls[0];
Bitmap mIcon11 = null;
try {
InputStream in = new java.net.URL(urldisplay).openStream();
mIcon11 = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(in);
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e("Error", e.getMessage());
e.printStackTrace();
}
return mIcon11;
}
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(Bitmap result) {
super.onPostExecute(result);
//pd.dismiss();
bmImage.setImageBitmap(result);
}
}
}

I guess you are executing your code on the MainThread, which leads to a NetworkOnMainThreadException in android. Try to execute your code asynchronous like in the example below
new AsyncTask<String, Integer, Bitmap>() {
#Override
protected Bitmap doInBackground(String... params) {
try {
URL url = new URL(params[0]);
return BitmapFactory.decodeStream(url.openConnection().getInputStream());
} catch (MalformedURLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
}
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(Bitmap bm) {
ImageView teamImgView = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.teamImageView);
teamImgView.setImageBitmap(bm);
}
}.execute("https://drive.google.com/uc?....");

You can use Picasso library and here is a detailed tutorial on how to do this.
This is very simple example usage
Picasso.with(activityContext)
.load("https://drive.google.com/uc?....")
.placeholder(R.drawable.image_name)
.into(imageView);

As bojan says you can use Picasso library wich handles many common pitfalls of image loading on Android.
Picasso.with(context).load("http://myurl/myImage.png").into(imageView);
Picasso

How to load an ImageView by URL in Android?

Try following this link:
http://www.tutorialsbuzz.com/2014/11/android-volley-url-imageview.html
This will help you to load your image using Volley library which will do all the networking stuff on networking thread and set your image on main UI thread. It has also the LRUCache part which you can skip if you want.

Android : Loading an image from the Web with Asynctask

How do I replace the following lines of code with an Asynctask ?
How do you "get back" the Bitmap from the Asynctask ? Thank you.
ImageView mChart = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.Chart);
String URL = "http://www...anything ...";
mChart.setImageBitmap(download_Image(URL));
public static Bitmap download_Image(String url) {
//---------------------------------------------------
Bitmap bm = null;
try {
URL aURL = new URL(url);
URLConnection conn = aURL.openConnection();
conn.connect();
InputStream is = conn.getInputStream();
BufferedInputStream bis = new BufferedInputStream(is);
bm = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(bis);
bis.close();
is.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
Log.e("Hub","Error getting the image from server : " + e.getMessage().toString());
}
return bm;
//---------------------------------------------------
}
I thought about something like this :
replace :
mChart.setImageBitmap(download_Image(graph_URL));
by something like :
mChart.setImageBitmap(new DownloadImagesTask().execute(graph_URL));
and
public class DownloadImagesTask extends AsyncTask<String, Void, Bitmap> {
#Override
protected Bitmap doInBackground(String... urls) {
return download_Image(urls[0]);
}
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(Bitmap result) {
mChart.setImageBitmap(result); // how do I pass a reference to mChart here ?
}
private Bitmap download_Image(String url) {
//---------------------------------------------------
Bitmap bm = null;
try {
URL aURL = new URL(url);
URLConnection conn = aURL.openConnection();
conn.connect();
InputStream is = conn.getInputStream();
BufferedInputStream bis = new BufferedInputStream(is);
bm = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(bis);
bis.close();
is.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
Log.e("Hub","Error getting the image from server : " + e.getMessage().toString());
}
return bm;
//---------------------------------------------------
}
}
but How do I pass a reference to mChart in onPostExecute(Bitmap result) ???
Do I need to pass it with the URL in some way ?
I would like to replace all my lines of code :
mChart1.setImageBitmap(download_Image(URL_1));
mChart2.setImageBitmap(download_Image(URL_2));
with something similar ... but in Asynctask way !
mChart1.setImageBitmap(new DownloadImagesTask().execute(graph_URL_1));
mChart2.setImageBitmap(new DownloadImagesTask().execute(graph_URL_2));
Is there an easy solution for this ?
Do I get something wrong here ?

If there is no good reason to download the image yourself then I would recommend to use Picasso.
Picasso saves you all the problems with downloading, setting and caching images.
The whole code needed for a simple example is:
Picasso.with(context).load(url).into(imageView);
If you really want to do everything yourself use my older answer below.
If the image is not that big you can just use an anonymous class for the async task.
This would like this:
ImageView mChart = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imageview);
String URL = "http://www...anything ...";
mChart.setTag(URL);
new DownloadImageTask.execute(mChart);
The Task class:
public class DownloadImagesTask extends AsyncTask<ImageView, Void, Bitmap> {
ImageView imageView = null;
#Override
protected Bitmap doInBackground(ImageView... imageViews) {
this.imageView = imageViews[0];
return download_Image((String)imageView.getTag());
}
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(Bitmap result) {
imageView.setImageBitmap(result);
}
private Bitmap download_Image(String url) {
...
}
Hiding the URL in the tag is a bit tricky but it looks nicer in the calling class if you have a lot of imageviews that you want to fill this way. It also helps if you are using the ImageView inside a ListView and you want to know if the ImageView was recycled during the download of the image.
I wrote if you Image is not that big because this will result in the task having a implicit pointer to the underlying activity causing the garbage collector to hold the whole activity in memory until the task is finished. If the user moves to another screen of your app while the bitmap is downloading the memory can't be freed and it may make your app and the whole system slower.

Try this code:
ImageView myFirstImage = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.myFirstImage);
ImageView mySecondImage = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.mySecondImage);
ImageView myThirdImage = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.myThirdImage);
String URL1 = "http://www.google.com/logos/2013/estonia_independence_day_2013-1057005.3-hp.jpg";
String URL2 = "http://www.google.com/logos/2013/park_su-geuns_birthday-1055005-hp.jpg";
String URL3 = "http://www.google.com/logos/2013/anne_cath_vestlys_93rd_birthday-1035005-hp.jpg";
myFirstImage.setTag(URL1);
mySecondImage.setTag(URL2);
myThirdImage.setTag(URL3);
new DownloadImageTask.execute(myFirstImage);
new DownloadImageTask.execute(mySecondImage);
new DownloadImageTask.execute(myThirdImage);
public class DownloadImagesTask extends AsyncTask<ImageView, Void, Bitmap> {
ImageView imageView = null;
#Override
protected Bitmap doInBackground(ImageView... imageViews) {
this.imageView = imageViews[0];
return download_Image((String)imageView.getTag());
}
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(Bitmap result) {
imageView.setImageBitmap(result);
}
private Bitmap download_Image(String url) {
Bitmap bmp =null;
try{
URL ulrn = new URL(url);
HttpURLConnection con = (HttpURLConnection)ulrn.openConnection();
InputStream is = con.getInputStream();
bmp = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(is);
if (null != bmp)
return bmp;
}catch(Exception e){}
return bmp;
}
}

you can create a class say..BkgProcess which contains an inner class that extends AsyncTask. while instantiating BkgProcess pass the context of your Activity class in BkgProcess constructor. for eg:
public class BkgProcess {
String path;
Context _context;
public Download(Downloader downloader, String path2){
this.path = path2;
_context = downloader;
}
public void callProgressDialog(){
new BkgProcess().execute((Void)null);
}
class Downloads extends AsyncTask<Void, Void, Boolean> {
private ProgressDialog dialog = new ProgressDialog(_context);
protected void onPreExecute(){
dialog.setMessage("Downloading image..");
dialog.show();
}
protected void onPostExecute(Boolean success) {
dialog.dismiss();
if(success)
Toast.makeText(_context, "Download complete", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
#Override
protected Boolean doInBackground(Void... params) {
return(startDownload(path));
}
public boolean startDownload(String img_url) {
// download img..
return true;
}
}
}
from your activity class..
BkgProcess dwn = new BkgProcess (Your_Activity_class.this, img_path);
dwn.callProgressDialog();

This will get you images of any size...
if you dont want the progress dialog just comment the codes in onPreExecute();
for(int i = 0 ; i < no_of_files ; i++ )
new FetchFilesTask().execute(image_url[i]);
private class FetchFilesTask extends AsyncTask<String, Void, Bitmap> {
private ProgressDialog dialog = new ProgressDialog(FileExplorer.this);
Bitmap bitmap[];
protected void onPreExecute(){
dialog.setMessage("fetching image from the server");
dialog.show();
}
protected Bitmap doInBackground(String... args) {
bitmap = getBitmapImageFromServer();
return bitmap;
}
protected void onPostExecute(Bitmap m_bitmap) {
dialog.dismiss();
if(m_bitmap != null)
//store the images in an array or do something else with all the images.
}
}
public Bitmap getBitmapImageFromServer(){
// fetch image form the url using the URL and URLConnection class
}
