Glide: log each request

Question

Consider the code below:

Glide.with(<your_context>)
    .load(<remote_file_url, local_file_path>)
    .into(<imageview>);

Above Glide code is written in lots of file. Simply I want to log my remote_file_url or local_file_path in logcat. But I don't want to change the code in every file.

Is Glide allowing logging? If it allows, then I need a simple central way to turn on glide logging.

For Reference: I want the way like Retrofit + okhttp allow. In OkHttp, I just have to add interceptor at one location and it will log information about each webservice call without writing any other additional code.

In Glide 4.0 RC that's possible via Glide configuration: you can configure Glide's logging level via GlideBuilder#setLogLevel(int).

Having MyGlideModule.java:


@GlideModule
public class MyGlideModule extends AppGlideModule {
  @Override
  public void applyOptions(Context context, GlideBuilder builder) {
    builder.setLogLevel(Log.VERBOSE);
  }
}

Then you'll be able to see following log in console:

For older versions (3.x), as mentioned in "Debugging workflow":

To view how and when Glide's internal engine finds the resources you asked for, you can enable logging:

adb shell setprop log.tag.Engine VERBOSE

adb shell setprop log.tag.EngineJob VERBOSE

adb shell setprop log.tag.DecodeJob VERBOSE

This will prompt with following output:

You can enable only Engine logging if you are not interested in other logs.

thanks for answer. But it seems that `builder.setLogLevel(Log.VERBOSE);` is only available in glide v4 version while i am using 3.7.0. – Moinkhan Jun 20 '17 at 05:43
And in latest version i am not able to use `PlaceHolder` also. – Moinkhan Jun 20 '17 at 05:45
Nope, haven't got a chance yet. But would certainly consider moving to, regardless it's in "release candidate" stage or no. – azizbekian Jun 20 '17 at 07:18
Yep it's in RC version. In v4 there is no need to give meta data in manifest. When I add meta data it gives me exception `Expected instanceof GlideModule, but found:.`. And also there are annotation available from v4. So no need to add it in meta data. – Moinkhan Jun 20 '17 at 07:40
The original answer I gave was not tailor-made for v4, it's just that I knew that Glide may be configured from modules. I believe there must be a better approach with v4. – azizbekian Jun 20 '17 at 07:45

Can you implement v4 and update the answer then i will accept it, Currently `setLogLevel()` is in v4, while meta data is not supported in v4(i thought), So if i accept this answer it may misguide to audience, .. If you can't update it, then don't worry i will edit your answer and will accept it. BTW thanx for your effort. – Moinkhan Jun 20 '17 at 07:54
Is it possible to enable Engine logs in V4? `adb shell setprop log.tag.Engine VERBOSE` doesn't work – Torima Mar 09 '22 at 16:36
