How to load Image Files into Jetpack Compose Image using Coil

I want to load a local image file using Coil into a Jetpack Compose Image, but searching has produced only methods using web urls or by passing files converted to bitmaps.

Can Coil load a local image file directly into a Compose Image?

Solution

  • For the new version of coil 2.2.2, rememberImagePainter didn't give me good results so I used this-

    AsyncImage(
    model = ImageRequest.Builder(LocalContext.current)
        .data(<file_path>)
        .build(),
    contentDescription = "icon",
    contentScale = ContentScale.Inside,
    modifier = Modifier.size(30.dp)
)

    Hope it helps someone
