Demo

Usage

Dependency

allprojects {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
    }
}

// NOTE that the artifact id has been changed!
compile 'com.github.piasy:BigImageViewer:1.2.0'

// load with fresco
compile 'com.github.piasy:FrescoImageLoader:1.2.0'

// load with glide
compile 'com.github.piasy:GlideImageLoader:1.2.0'

// progress pie indicator
compile 'com.github.piasy:ProgressPieIndicator:1.2.0'

initialize

// MUST use app context to avoid memory leak!
// load with fresco
BigImageViewer.initialize(FrescoImageLoader.with(appContext));

// or load with glide
BigImageViewer.initialize(GlideImageLoader.with(appContext));

Note that if you've already used Fresco in your project, please change Fresco.initialize into BigImageViewer.initialize.

Layout

<com.github.piasy.biv.BigImageView
        android:id="@+id/mBigImage"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        />

Java

BigImageView bigImageView = (BigImageView) findViewById(R.id.mBigImage);
bigImageView.showImage(Uri.parse(url));

// you can show thumbnail before the big image is loaded
bigImageView.showImage(Uri.parse(thumbnail), Uri.parse(url));

Downloading progress

bigImageView.setProgressIndicator(new ProgressPieIndicator());

There is one built-in indicator, ProgressPieIndicator, you can implement your own indicator easily, learn by example.

Prefetch

You can prefetch images in advance, so it could be shown immediately when user want to see it.

BigImageViewer.prefetch(uris);

Save image into gallery

bigImageView.setImageSaveCallback(new ImageSaveCallback() {
    @Override
    public void onSuccess(String uri) {
        Toast.makeText(LongImageActivity.this,
                "Success",
                Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    }

    @Override
    public void onFail(Throwable t) {
        t.printStackTrace();
        Toast.makeText(LongImageActivity.this,
                "Fail",
                Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    }
});

bigImageView.saveImageIntoGallery();

Why another big image viewer?

There are several big image viewer libraries, PhotoDraweeView, FrescoImageViewer, and Subsampling Scale Image View.

They both support pan and zoom. PhotoDraweeView and FrescoImageViewer both use Fresco to load image, which will cause extremely large memory usage when showing big images. Subsampling Scale Image View uses very little memory, but it can only show local image file.

This library show big image with Subsampling Scale Image View, so it only uses very little memory. And this library support using different image load libraries, so it's full featured!

Performance

Memory usage of different libraries:

-	PhotoDraweeView	FrescoImageViewer	BigImageViewer
4135*5134	80MB	80MB	2~20 MB

Todo

• GlideImageLoader
• Save image file to gallery
• Optimize long image showing effect, thanks for razerdp
• Optimize "double tap to zoom" effect, thanks for razerdp
• Loading animation
• Downloading progress
• Thumbnail support
• Fail image
• Retry when fail
• PicassoImageLoader, track this issue

Those features are offered by image load libraries, and they should be easy to implement, but I don't have enough time currently. So your contributions are welcome!
