Support for KSP

Llatest release of Glide is 4.16.0, but GlideWebpDecoder is not updated to this version, so I use Glide as usual with latest build, but for GlideWebpDecoder I must use old full version. They are working good together.

My build.gradle now:

def glide_version = '4.16.0'

dependencies {
    …

    // Glide for images loading
    implementation "com.github.bumptech.glide:glide:$glide_version"
    implementation "com.github.zjupure:webpdecoder:2.3.4.15.1" //TODO use $glide_version after library update
    //kapt "com.github.bumptech.glide:compiler:$glide_version"
    ksp "com.github.bumptech.glide:ksp:$glide_version"
}

You can use 4.15.1 for both libraries, KSP support was added to Glide in 4.14.0.

But please update the repository guidelines.

Can you please also explain what changes will we need to perform?
Or maybe it's possible already, at least partially?
The IDE claims this for the Glide part:

This library supports using KSP instead of kapt, which greatly improves performance. Learn more: https://developer.android.com/studio/build/migrate-to-ksp

Maybe possible at least partially, then?
I tried now, and I got errors while trying to do it. Not sure if it's because I did something wrong, or because it's not possible yet if I use Glide together with this repository...

PR is welcome. I has no more time to migrate kapt to KSP, it is low priority.

I'm using this library with KSP, all is working good. Just make sure to have a class that extends AppGlideModule and marked with @GlideModule attribute. So auto-generated ksp module GeneratedAppGlideModuleImpl has WebpGlideLibraryModule registered in it:

  public override fun registerComponents(
    context: Context,
    glide: Glide,
    registry: Registry,
  ): Unit {
    WebpGlideLibraryModule().registerComponents(context, glide, registry)  <— Here
    appGlideModule.registerComponents(context, glide, registry)
  }

build.gradle:

    implementation "com.github.bumptech.glide:glide:4.16.0"
    implementation "com.github.zjupure:webpdecoder:2.3.4.15.1"
    //kapt "com.github.bumptech.glide:compiler:4.16.0"
    ksp "com.github.bumptech.glide:ksp:4.16.0"

@ArtRoman It says that you should use :

implementation "com.github.bumptech.glide:glide:${GLIDE_VERSION}"

And you have 4.15.1 instead of 4.16.0.

How come?

[AndroidDeveloperLB]

@ArtRoman OK thank you!

[ArtRoman]

@AndroidDeveloperLB you can close issue if all is OK
