Check if Image is in Cache - Universal Image Loader

Question

I guess the title says it all. I tried:

imageLoader.getMemoryCache().get(key); 

with the image uri as key, but it always return null

although I enabled caching in the config.

Answer 1

Use MemoryCacheUtils.

MemoryCacheUtils.findCachedBitmapsForImageUri(imageUri, ImageLoader.getInstance().getMemoryCache());

Memory cache can contain several bitmaps (diffenrent sizes) for one image. So memory cache use special keys, not image urls.

@NOSTRA this is not working for me. If I use: MemoryCacheUtil.findCachedBitmapsForImageUri(url, ImageLoader.getInstance()); it asks me for casting, so... is this correct? MemoryCacheUtil.findCachedBitmapsForImageUri(url, (MemoryCacheAware<String, Bitmap>) ImageLoader.getInstance()); – Gwenny

@NOSTRA, why using this code MemoryCacheUtil.findCachedBitmapsForImageUri(imageUri, ImageLoader.getInstance().getMemoryCache()); returns an arraylist of bitmap? and getting the first value in arraylist returns random bitmap? Thanks in advance. – Interstellar

Because memory cache can contain different sizes (Bitmaps) of the same image. Actually you can deny it in configuration. – Tannertannery

@NOSTRA , can u plz take a look at this post. #26480598 – Congressman

Answer 2

It should be MemoryCacheUtils, so you should use

MemoryCacheUtils.findCachedBitmapsForImageUri(imageUri, ImageLoader.getInstance().getMemoryCache());

For disk cache use below code

public static boolean isDiskCache(String url) {
        File file = DiskCacheUtils.findInCache(url, ImageLoader.getInstance().getDiskCache());
        return file != null;
}

Answer 4

Sometimes, when using the Universal Image Loader library, there comes a time where the loader takes a while to verify whether the remote image has been already loaded in your cache. To load the cache file directly, you can use the following method to check whether a local copy of the remote file has already been made:

    File file = imageLoader.getDiscCache().get(url);  
 if (!file.exists()) {  
      DisplayImageOptions options = new DisplayImageOptions.Builder()  
      .cacheOnDisc()  
      .build();  
      imageLoader.displayImage(url, imageView, options);  
 }  
 else {  
      imageView.setImageURI(Uri.parse(file.getAbsolutePath()));  
 }

I think you can create a simple method in your utility class like this:

public static boolean isImageAvailableInCache(String imageUrl){
    MemoryCache memoryCache = ImageLoader.getInstance().getMemoryCache();
    if(memoryCache!=null) {
        for (String key : memoryCache.keys()) {
            if (key.startsWith(imageUrl)) {
                return true;
            }
        }
    }
    return false;
}

and Use it like:

   if(Utils.isImageAvailableInCache(imageUrl)){
//
      }
