Easy Animations - No Controllers, No Tickers, Only the necessary parts.

NO NEED TO ADD TickerProviderStateMixins NO MORE AnimationControllers NO MORE Tweens EASILY ADD Curves AND ReverseCurves

NO MORE COMPLICATION

Normal animations involve a fair amount of complexity: AnimationControllers, Tweens, Animation, Tickers are not familiar concepts to many. Not just to beginners - when creating an explicit animation, even advanced users experience hardships dealing with the many components involved.

ANNOUNCING EZANIMATION: A SET OF TOOLS TO MAKE ANIMATIONS MUCH EASIER

With EzAnimation, there is no need to burden your code with TickerProviders, the complicated logic of curves, different components of animation, etc.

TO USE:

DEFINE EzAnimation

(RECOMMENDED METHOD) A more efficient animation:

EzAnimation animation = EzAnimation(10.0, 100.0, Duration(seconds: 1), context: context);

ANOTHER METHOD: (Note that this animation needs to be manually stopped or it will go to completion even when another screen is pushed.)

EzAnimation animation = EzAnimation(10.0, 100.0, Duration(seconds: 1));

(Notice that you can define this outside of initState, unlike normal animation controllers)

START ANIMATION

animation.start();

// OR

animation.start(from: 0.2);

END ANIMATION

animation.stop();

REPEAT ANIMATION

animation.repeat();

RESET ANIMATION

animation.reset();

REVERSE ANIMATION

animation.reverse();

// OR

animation.reverse(from: 0.5);

DEFINE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN NAVIGATOR PUSHES ANOTHER PAGE ON TOP

EzAnimation animation = EzAnimation(10.0, 100.0, Duration(seconds: 1), context: context, onNavigate: OnNavigate.pauseAnimation);

An animation can either reset or pause when the navigator pushes another page on top. Use the onNavigate page to achieve this.

NOTE: A PAUSED ANIMATION NEEDS TO BE MANUALLY RESTARTED AFTER COMING BACK TO THE MAIN PAGE

onPressed: () async {
    await Navigator.of(context).push(MaterialPageRoute(builder: (context) => DemoPage()));
    animation.start();
}

resetAnimation -> Resets animation to the start
pauseAnimation -> Pauses animation at that instant (You need to manually restart this when it comes back)
letItRun -> Animation will go to completion unless animation.stop() is called.
takeToEnd -> Takes animation to final value instantly

REBUILD UI

You can use normal listeners and rebuild UI with AnimatedBuilder as usual.

animation.addListener(() { 
  setState(() {});
});

//OR

AnimatedBuilder(
    animation: animation,
    builder: (context, snapshot) {
      return Center(
        child: Container(
          width: animation.value,
          height: animation.value,
          color: Colors.blue,
        ),
      );
    }
  ),

ADD CURVES EASILY

var animation = EzAnimation(10.0, 100.0, Duration(seconds: 1), curve: Curves.bounceInOut, reverseCurve: Curves.linear);

LISTEN TO STATUS

animation.addStatusListener((status) {
  if (status == AnimationStatus.completed) {
    animation.reverse();
  }
});
