RedirectGlide ⚡

RedirectGlide empowers Glide to load images with indirect URLs.

Sometimes the images you want to show with Glide have indirect link and you should redirect the URL to reach the real direct link. RedirectGlide is an extension over Glide's OkHttp3 Integration which adds the redirection functionality to Glide.

• NOTE: Currently it's implemented only for Glide-v4.

Download

RedirectGlide is available on MavenCentral to download using build tools systems. Add the following lines to your build.gradle file:

apply plugin: 'kotlin-android'
apply plugin: 'kotlin-android-extensions'
apply plugin: 'kotlin-kapt'

dependencies {
    implementation 'com.aminography:redirectglide:2.1.0'
    
    // Glide dependencies
    implementation 'com.github.bumptech.glide:glide:4.11.0'
    kapt 'com.github.bumptech.glide:compiler:4.11.0'
}

• If you write code in Java, you should also add kotlin dependency too:

dependencies {
    implementation 'org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib-jdk8:latest_version'
}

How to use RedirectGlide?

You can simply use RedirectGlide by Glide's generated API. Note that you should clean and rebuild your project to create the GlideApp class in compile time.

val imageUrl = "https://bit.ly/2zeMrFB"

GlideApp.with(context)
        .load(imageUrl)
        .into(imageView)

• Customize the maximum redirection count

The default value for maximum redirection count is set to 5. However, you can change it by wrapping the image URL with an instance of RedirectGlideUrl.

GlideApp.with(context)
        .load(RedirectGlideUrl(imageUrl, 10))
        .into(imageView)
