How to invalidate Glide cache for some specific images

I'm writing an app which needs to load a lot of images from the internet (a manga reader). I need to cache some thumbnail images for offline use, any others should be cleared when app closed.
I read some about cache invalidation on Glide page, they said the best way is to change the content url, but how Glide know if it is a modified url of old content or a new one? I'm new to Glide here.

Thank in advance :)

You can use following to load image:
Glide.with(context)
.signature(new StringSignature(yourVersionMetadata))
.into(imageView)
Just change yourVersionMetadata when you load image and it will not load from cache if yourVersionMetadata is different.

Android Image invalidate in fresco

I am migrating android image caching library from picasso to fresco. I want to know if there is any way to invalidate image already catched as I am adding feature to replace existing image there is way to do so in picasso like
Picasso.with(context).invalidate(URI);
This line remove the cached image and use new one using the url provided which is same like,
http://example.com/image_path
In fresco I have tried using
Fresco.getImagePipeline().evictFromMemoryCache(uri);
This is removing image from view but adding same old cached image again and not getting new one from network as it is working in picasso.
Please refer question Invalidate cache in Picasso The accepted answer doing great in case of picasso.

Fresco.getImagePipeline().evictFromMemoryCache(uri);
Above code line remove the image from the catche but image remains there in the disk and render same if called. We need to remove same image from disk as well. Bellow two lines remove the the image from disc cache also we need to remove the small that is thumbnail image if saved from disk cache.
Fresco.getImagePipelineFactory().getMainDiskStorageCache().remove(new SimpleCacheKey(uri.toString()));
Fresco.getImagePipelineFactory().getSmallImageDiskStorageCache().remove(new SimpleCacheKey(uri.toString()));
Note: if you are using custom cache key you need to change it that way.

Try this
public static void clearCache(){
//
ImagePipeline imagePipeline = com.facebook.drawee.backends.pipeline.Fresco.getImagePipeline();
imagePipeline.clearMemoryCaches();
imagePipeline.clearDiskCaches();
// combines above two lines
imagePipeline.clearCaches();
}

Picasso: Loading cached image from disk too much slow

So, I was starting my project and wants to use Picasso in my project because its popular and used by many projects out there.
I included picasso using gradle and tried loading facebook profile url with this. http://graph.facebook.com/rohitiskul/picture.
It worked very well. It loaded image from network without any issues. I restarted the app.(Without actually killing the process). It showed me the same image instantly cached in Memory.
But then, I killed the app (force stop) and restarted. It took almost 10+ seconds to load the image. And that image was loading from the disk when I checked in the debug logs.
My code looks like this -
In MainActivity-
Picasso.with(context)
.load("http://graph.facebook.com/rohitiskul/picture")
.into(imageView);
In application class-
Picasso picasso = new Picasso.Builder(this)
.indicatorsEnabled(true).loggingEnabled(true).build()
Picasso.setSingletonInstance(picasso);
Anyone with the similar problem? Any solution would be helpful.
I tried loading same Url with UniversalImageLoader and it was fast when fetching cached image from disk.
Edit
Earlier while playing with my app, I found out that Picasso wasn't loading the disk cached image when device was offline.

I encounter the same problem,
but find only slow for the first image, later images will be fast.
Probably it needs a warm-up (loading index cache) ?

Okay i got your problem. I have fixed it by doing this
Picasso.with(context)
.load("http://graph.facebook.com/rohitiskul/picture")
.networkPolicy(NetworkPolicy.OFFLINE)
.into(imageView, new Callback() {
#Override
public void onSuccess() { }
#Override
public void onError() {
// Try again online if cache failed
Picasso.with(context)
.load("http://graph.facebook.com/rohitiskul/picture")
.into(imageView);
}
});
Explanation:
Picasso will look for images in cache.
If it failed only then image will be downloaded over network. In your case from facebook.

This issue I had also faced earlier, with this what I understood that Picasso refer the cached image based on image name mentioned in the URL.
In your case you don't have image name in URL like 'image1.jpg'. Due to which Picasso is finding it difficult to read from cache and it downloads the image everytime
You can give a try to image containing the image name in URL and that will work

Picasso doesn't offer disk cache out of the box. Instead, it relies on an Http Cache.
Make sure you add OkHttp to your dependency list.

Add a string identifier with the stableKey method when making the request so Picasso can identify your requests and quickly load it from the cache.
Example:
Picasso.Builder(context).loggingEnabled(true).build()
.load(imageUrl)
.stableKey("myImage")
.into(imageView)

Clear cache of UIL library

I am using universal image loader library for loading the images in my listview. I want to clear the cache for all the images at once.
I know how to do it for one image at a time.
MemoryCacheUtils.removeFromCache("file://"+path, ImageLoader.getInstance().getMemoryCache());
DiskCacheUtils.removeFromCache("file://"+path, ImageLoader.getInstance().getDiskCache());
How can I do this?

You can do that by:
imageLoader.clearMemoryCache();
or
imageLoader.getDiskCache().clear();
it depends on your configuration.

You can clear the memory cache and the disk cache distinctly. For each just call:
ImageLoader.getInstance().clearMemoryCache();
ImageLoader.getInstance().clearDiskCache();
It will erase all stored cache data.

How to get the images from cache when the app is offline by using image loader concept?

I am using universal image loader concept for load the images from remote server and updating to imageview.First time my application having internet connection and saving all the images on application cache("//data//cache/") memory and updating to imageview.Once the images are available in cache I would like to get the images from cache in offline not from remote server.
To get the images i have implemented following universal lazy loading concept:
imageLoader.displayImage(url,imageView, options, animateListener);
I would like to get the same image in offline from cache.
Please give me better solution for get the images in offline loading.

I got the solution as follows:
if(isConnectingToInternet()){
imageLoader.displayImage(image_url, imageView, options);
}
else{
File file = imageLoader.getDiscCache().get(image_url);
Log.v(TAG,"file_ path :"+file.getPath());
Bitmap myBitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(file.getAbsolutePath());
imageView.setImageBitmap(myBitmap);
}

you can find Images being handled offline by efficiently using Memory and FileChache, you can view the code as Album Sample this is basically a endless list representation.
