A general-purpose widget for building animations.

AnimatedBuilder is useful for more complex widgets that wish to include an animation as part of a larger build function. To use AnimatedBuilder, simply construct the widget and pass it a builder function.

If your builder function contains a subtree that does not depend on the animation, it's more efficient to build that subtree once instead of rebuilding it on every animation tick.

If you pass the pre-built subtree as the child parameter, the AnimatedBuilder will pass it back to your builder function so that you can incorporate it into your build.

Using this pre-built child is entirely optional, but can improve performance significantly in some cases and is therefore a good practice.

For simple cases without additional state, consider using AnimatedWidget.

AnimatedBuilder({Key key, @required Animation<Object> animation, @required TransitionBuilder builder, Widget child })

Creates an animated builder.

Properties

builder TransitionBuilder

Called every time the animation changes value.

read-only
child Widget

If your builder function contains a subtree that does not depend on the animation, it's more efficient to build that subtree once instead of rebuilding it on every animation tick.

animation Animation<Object>

The animation to which this widget is listening.

read-only, inherited
hashCode int

Get a hash code for this object.

read-only, inherited

Methods

build(BuildContext context) Widget

Override this method to build widgets that depend on the current value of the animation.

createElement() StatefulElement

Creates a StatefulElement to manage this widget's location in the tree.

inherited
createState() → _AnimatedState

Subclasses typically do not override this method.

inherited
