Show activity indicator in SDWebImage

Question

I\'m using SDWebView image and i want to show an Activity Indicator as placeholder, while fetching the image from remote.

I tried Malek\'s answer here How to show an act

Answer 1

I believe with the latest version of sdwebimage this is a better method.

[self.customImageView setImageWithURL:imageURL
                             placeholderImage:nil
                                      options:nil
                                     progress:^(NSUInteger receivedSize, long long expectedSize) { [self.activityIndicator startAnimating]; }
                                    completed:^(UIImage *image, NSError *error, SDImageCacheType cacheType) { [self.activityIndicator stopAnimating]; }];

Note: If you don't have a property setup obviously self.activityindicator won't work.

I would use Michael Frederick's example to create the activityindicator instead.
