android - Load image from SD card using Glide

Question

I've been trying and searching for an answer for the past 5 hours. I'm storing image from google plus to local folder and using Glide library to load the image into imageview.

the file uri is file:///storage/emulated/0/MyApp/ProfilePics/profile_user1.jpg

I'm using below code for image loading through glide:

Glide.with(ProfileActivity.this).load(Uri.fromFile(new File(sharedPrefMan.getImageUrl()))).placeholder(R.drawable.placeholder_profile).into(imgProfilePic);

where sharedPrefMan.getImageUrl() returns /storage/emulated/0/MyApp/ProfilePics/profile_user1.jpg

The image is present in the given location.

If you have original path of image than you have to converted to URI and showing image like this

    String fileName = "1.jpg";
    String completePath = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + "/" + fileName;

    File file = new File(completePath);
    Uri imageUri = Uri.fromFile(file);

    Glide.with(this)
            .load(imageUri)
                    .into(imgView);

Seems like you have URI than you have to put than URI only

   Glide.with(this)
            .load(Uri)
                    .into(imgView);
