Glide 4.2.0 Failed to find any ModelLoaders for model BitmapDrawable

[vsay01]

Glide Version: com.github.bumptech.glide:glide:4.2.0

Integration libraries: No

Device/Android Version: Samsung

What happened
I want to load gif images that stored locally. I get the drawable based on the name of the file. when try to load with glide it's crash with the logcat below.

• If i access to the file with R.drawable.anygif then it's working fine.

• With GlideApp.load(getDrawable(mContext, "filename")), In the logcat it says Failed to find any ModelLoaders for model BitmapDrawable, but BitmapDrawable is a subclass of Drawable then it would be better if this can be load as well.

• With GlideApp.load(getDrawable(mContext, "filename")), If i use it in placeholder then gif not working ( just an image ).

Any idea?

Glide load line / GlideModule (if any) / list Adapter code (if any):
Working

GlideApp.with(mContext)
                        .load(R.drawable.anygif)
                        .override(320)
                        .diskCacheStrategy(DiskCacheStrategy.DATA)
                        .placeholder(R.mipmap.placeholder)
                        .into(fakePageVH.mImgSticker);

Not Working

GlideApp.with(mContext)
                        .load(getDrawable(mContext, "filename"))
                        .override(320)
                        .diskCacheStrategy(DiskCacheStrategy.DATA)
                        .placeholder(R.mipmap.ic_launcher_round)
                        .into(fakePageVH.mImgSticker);

Working but gif not play, just an image

GlideApp.with(mContext)
                        .load("")
                        .override(320)
                        .diskCacheStrategy(DiskCacheStrategy.DATA)
                        .placeholder(getDrawable(mContext, "filename"))
                        .into(fakePageVH.mImgSticker);

Helper

public static Drawable getDrawable(Context context, String ImageName) {
        return ContextCompat.getDrawable(context, context.getResources().getIdentifier(ImageName, "drawable", context.getPackageName()));
    }

I am be able to load local gif files.

Instead pass the drawable to load method, I changed the helper method to return only the int, the associated resource identifier.

I changed the getDrawable method as follow:

public static int getDrawable(Context context, String ImageName) {
        return context.getResources().getIdentifier(ImageName, "drawable", context.getPackageName());
    }

Note: the imageName cannot have the extension otherwise it won't load.

Working with filename

GlideApp.with(mContext)
                        .load(getDrawable(mContext, "filename"))
                        .override(320)
                        .diskCacheStrategy(DiskCacheStrategy.DATA)
                        .placeholder(R.mipmap.ic_launcher_round)
                        .into(fakePageVH.mImgSticker);

Not Working with filename.gif

GlideApp.with(mContext)
                        .load(getDrawable(mContext, "filename.gif"))
                        .override(320)
                        .diskCacheStrategy(DiskCacheStrategy.DATA)
                        .placeholder(R.mipmap.ic_launcher_round)
                        .into(fakePageVH.mImgSticker);

Suggestion
The original issue is still there; it would be great if Glide can add the model so BitmapDrawable can be loaded.
I will keep this thread open so that we can track the original issue; otherwise, if found that Glide won't need to support BitmapDrawable then feel free to close this.

Thanks for great library.
