TickerSignal class

Ticker signal used to drive animations and can create animation controllers

void main() {
  final ticker = TickerSignal(); // could be a global
  final controller = ticker.toAnimationController(); // can be local or global
  final curve = CurvedAnimation(parent: controller, curve: Curves.easeOut); // can be used outside of widget tree
  final alpha = IntTween(begin: 0, end: 255).animate(curve);
  ...
  final alphaSignal = alpha.toSignal(); // can be converted to a signal
}

Methods

call() Duration
Return the value when invoked
inherited
createTicker(TickerCallback onTick) Ticker
Creates a ticker with the given callback.
override
dispose() → void
Dispose the signal
override
forceUpdate([Duration? val]) → void
Force update a value
inherited
get() Duration
Get the current value
inherited
noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic

inherited
onDispose(void cleanup()) EffectCleanup
Add a cleanup function to be called when the signal is disposed
inherited
overrideWith(Duration val) Signal<Duration>
Override the current signal with a new value as if it was created with it
inherited
peek() Duration
In the rare instance that you have an effect that should write to another signal based on the previous value, but you don't want the effect to be subscribed to that signal, you can read a signals's previous value via signal.peek().

Returns a readonly signal
inherited
set(Duration val, {bool force = false}) bool

inherited
subscribe(void fn(Duration value)) EffectCleanup
