In Flutter, AnimationController is used to manage animations. It allows starting, stopping, repeating, and controlling the progress of an animation.
Main steps:
- Create an
AnimationControllerin the widget's state (usually ininitState), specifying duration andvsync(for resource optimization). - Use controller methods:
forward(),reverse(),repeat(),stop()to control the animation. - Subscribe to animation value changes via
addListenerto update the UI. - Dispose of the controller in
dispose()method.
Example:
class MyAnimatedWidgetState extends State<MyAnimatedWidget> with SingleTickerProviderStateMixin {
late AnimationController _controller;
@override
void initState() {
super.initState();
_controller = AnimationController(
duration: const Duration(seconds: 2),
vsync: this,
)..addListener(() {
setState(() {}); // update UI on animation change
});
_controller.forward(); // start animation
}
@override
void dispose() {
_controller.dispose();
super.dispose();
}
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Opacity(
opacity: _controller.value, // from 0.0 to 1.0
child: YourWidget(),
);
}
}
