setAnimationFromUrl

Load a lottie animation from a url. The url can be a json file or a zip file. Use a zip file if you have images. Simply zip them together and lottie will unzip and link the images automatically.

Under the hood, Lottie uses Java HttpURLConnection because it doesn't require any transitive networking dependencies. It will download the file to the application cache under a temporary name. If the file successfully parses to a composition, it will rename the temporary file to one that can be accessed immediately for subsequent requests. If the file does not parse to a composition, the temporary file will be deleted.
