Unable to load .webp image using Glide in Android

Question

I am using Glide v3.7.0 to load image. I have no problem in loading .png format. But I dont even receive error response while loading .webp. If I tried to load the same url in browser it getting downloaded as file. And the file can be open via Chrome display the image correctly.

Answer 1

I'm using GlideWebpDecoder

This library is compatible with Glide version 4.+

And the author is always trying to support with newest version of Glide

This is the code snippet :

Transformation<Bitmap> circleCrop = new CircleCrop();
GlideApp.with(mContext)
    .load(url)
    .optionalTransform(circleCrop)
    .optionalTransform(WebpDrawable.class, new WebpDrawableTransformation(circleCrop))
    .into(imageView);

Answer 2

As currently Glide already provide support for .webp images. Please check below open issue on Glide Github repo.
