// method to call to set image

   private void setImage(int src) {
       ImageView iv = findViewById(R.id.your_image_view);
       iv.setImageResource(src);
   }

//Pass your resource and use it like this :-

setImage(R.drawable.plus_active);

If you want to set image from local storage, then you have to get the uri of the image and use setImageUri like this:
public void getSource(View view , String srcImageUri){

ImageView image = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.img);
image.setImageURI(Uri.parse(src));
}

If you have image in drawable folder , then you have to set image like this:

image.setImageResource(R.drawable.imageName);

And if you want to set image from web url, then you have to use libraries like picaso or fresco.

use getResources().getIdentifier(); (there you can pass the image name String as a parameter to getIdentifier() function) to get the resourceID of the named image and then use setImageResource(resourceID); to set the image to ImageView.

public void getSource(View view , String src){
    int resID = getResources().getIdentifier( src, "drawable", Context.getPackageName());
    ImageView image = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.img);
    image.setImageResource(resID);
}

you may need to pass the Context as a parameter to your getSource() function.
