fluid_wave 1.0.1

A premium Flutter package for creating smooth fluid reveal transitions and radial warp distortions using Shaders.

fluid_wave 🌊

fluid_wave is a powerful Flutter package designed to create ultra-smooth "fluid reveal" transitions and radial warp distortions. By leveraging the power of Shaders, this package brings a premium, modern, and vivid UI experience to your applications.

Important Note: Since fluid_wave transitions work by capturing a snapshot of the target UI state, it is recommended to minimize or disable internal transition durations (e.g., in AnimatedContainer) for widgets inside FluidWaveView. The fluid reveal effect itself should be the primary animation to ensure perfect synchronization.

🚀 Key Features

• Radial Warp Effect: Mimics the experience of looking through a liquid lens while transitioning between views.
• Smooth Transitions: Uses CustomPaint and Shader to optimize rendering performance.
• Flexible Customization:
  • Change the wave origin point (topLeft, center, bottomRight, etc.).
  • Adjust distortion strength (warpStrength).
  • Customize animation Duration and Curve.
• Easy Integration: Simple wrapper with FluidWaveView and control via FluidWaveController.

📦 Installation

Add this to your pubspec.yaml:

dependencies:
  fluid_wave: ^1.0.1

Android Configuration

To ensure correct performance on Android devices, it is recommended to disable EnableImpeller in your AndroidManifest.xml:

<application
    android:label="untitled"
    android:name="${applicationName}"
    android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher">
    
    <meta-data
        android:name="io.flutter.embedding.android.EnableImpeller"
        android:value="false" /> // 👈 DisEnable Impeller
    ...
</application>

🛠 Usage

1. Initialize the Controller

final controller = FluidWaveController(
  align: Alignment.center,
  duration: const Duration(milliseconds: 1000),
  curve: Curves.easeInOutQuart,
  warpStrength: 0.6, // Supports negative values for inverted warp
);

2. Wrap your Widget

Wrap the widget you want to apply the effect to:

FluidWaveView(
  controller: controller,
  child: MyCurrentPage(),
)

3. Trigger the Effect

When you want to transition to a new view state:

controller.forward(() {
  setState(() {
    // Update your application state here
    // e.g., Change page, toggle Theme, etc.
    isFirstImage = !isFirstImage;
  });
});

4. Full Example

class Example extends StatefulWidget {
  const Example({super.key});

  @override
  State<Example> createState() => _ExampleState();
}

class _ExampleState extends State<Example> {
  bool isFirstImage = true;
  late FluidWaveController controller;

  @override
  void initState() {
    controller = FluidWaveController();
    super.initState();
  }
  
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      body: FluidWaveView(
        controller: controller,
        child: isFirstImage 
          ? Image.network("url1")
          : Image.network("url2")
      ),
      floatingActionButton: ElevatedButton(
        onPressed: () {
          controller.forward(() {
            setState(() {
              isFirstImage = !isFirstImage;
            });
          });
        }, 
        child: Icon(Icons.change_circle),
      ),
    );
  }
}

🧹 Resource Cleanup

Don't forget to dispose of the controller to prevent memory leaks:

@override
void dispose() {
  controller.dispose();
  super.dispose();
}
