flutter_shake_container 1.1.3
flutter_shake_container: ^1.1.3 copied to clipboard
A lightweight shake animation widget for Flutter. Supports any widget and horizontal/vertical/both-axis shaking.
flutter_shake_container #
A lightweight, configurable shake animation widget for Flutter.
Supports any Flutter widget.
This README documents the exact usage patterns shown in example/main.dart,
including ValueNotifier, GetX, and Stream based triggers, each
demonstrated with horizontal, vertical, and both-axis shake directions.
β¨ Features #
- Preset shake styles: error / warning / subtle
- Fully customizable animation via
ShakeConfig - Supports horizontal / vertical / both-axis shaking
- Queue-based triggering (no interrupted animations)
- Unified trigger abstraction (ValueNotifier / Stream / GetX)
- Text and generic widget support
onShakeStartcallback for haptic / vibration integration- Zero external dependencies

π§ Properties #
ShakeContainer #
| Property | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
trigger |
ShakeTrigger |
The trigger that starts the shake animation. Each ShakeContainer should have its own trigger. |
config |
ShakeConfig |
Defines the shake animation (offsets, weights, axis, curve, duration). |
child |
Widget |
The widget to be shaken. Supports any Flutter widget. |
onShakeStart |
VoidCallback? |
Called when the shake animation actually starts. Useful for haptic feedback or vibration. |
ShakeText #
| Property | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
text |
ValueListenable<String> |
The text content to display and observe. A shake is triggered when the value becomes non-empty. |
config |
ShakeConfig |
Shake animation configuration. |
style |
TextStyle? |
Text style applied to the text widget. |
autoDismiss |
Duration? |
Automatically clears the text after the given duration. |
onAutoDismiss |
VoidCallback? |
Called when autoDismiss completes. |
hideWhenEmpty |
bool |
Whether to hide the widget when the text is empty. Defaults to true. |
onShakeStart |
VoidCallback? |
Called when the shake animation starts. Can be used for haptic feedback. |
ShakeConfig #
| Property | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
offsets |
List<double> |
The offset values used to build the shake motion. |
weights |
List<double> |
The weight for each shake segment. Must be offsets.length - 1. |
axis |
ShakeAxis |
The shake direction: horizontal, vertical, or both. |
curve |
Curve |
Animation curve. Defaults to Curves.easeOut. |
duration |
Duration |
Total duration of the shake animation. |
ShakeTrigger #
ShakeTrigger is an abstraction over different trigger mechanisms.
Provided implementations:
StreamShakeTriggerβ Triggered by aStreamevent- Internal trigger for
ShakeText(ValueListenable-based)
Each ShakeContainer should use its own trigger. #
π§ͺ Example Usage #
The following examples are copied and directly from example/main.dart.
βοΈ ShakeText β ValueNotifier #
Horizontal #
final errorH = ValueNotifier('');
ShakeText(
text: errorH,
config: ShakePreset.error,
style: const TextStyle(color: Colors.red),
autoDismiss: const Duration(seconds: 2),
onAutoDismiss: () => errorH.value = '',
onShakeStart: () {
print('Shaken by ValueNotifier: Horizontal');
},
);
errorH.value = 'Horizontal shake';
Vertical #
final errorV = ValueNotifier('');
ShakeText(
text: errorV,
config: ShakeConfig(
offsets: [0, -10, 10, -10, 10, 0],
weights: [1, 1, 1, 1, 1],
axis: ShakeAxis.vertical,
),
style: const TextStyle(color: Colors.orange),
autoDismiss: const Duration(seconds: 3),
onAutoDismiss: () => errorV.value = '',
onShakeStart: () {
print('Shaken by ValueNotifier: Vertical');
},
);
errorV.value = 'Vertical shake';
Both Axis #
final errorB = ValueNotifier('');
ShakeText(
text: errorB,
config: ShakeConfig(
offsets: [0, -8, 8, -8, 8, 0],
weights: [1, 1, 1, 1, 1],
axis: ShakeAxis.both,
),
style: const TextStyle(color: Colors.purple),
autoDismiss: const Duration(milliseconds: 1200),
onAutoDismiss: () => errorB.value = '',
onShakeStart: () {
print('Shaken by ValueNotifier: Both');
},
);
errorB.value = 'Both-axis shake';
π’ ShakeContainer β GetX #
Each direction uses an independent trigger stream.
Horizontal #
ShakeContainer(
trigger: triggerGetxH,
config: ShakePreset.error,
onShakeStart: () {
print('Shaken by GetX: Horizontal');
},
child: const Icon(Icons.access_alarm, color: Colors.orange),
);
demo.triggerHorizontal();
Vertical #
ShakeContainer(
trigger: triggerGetxV,
config: ShakeConfig(
offsets: [0, -10, 10, -10, 10, 0],
weights: [1, 1, 1, 1, 1],
axis: ShakeAxis.vertical,
),
onShakeStart: () {
print('Shaken by GetX: Vertical');
},
child: const Icon(Icons.accessibility_sharp, color: Colors.deepOrange),
);
demo.triggerVertical();
Both Axis #
ShakeContainer(
trigger: triggerGetxB,
config: ShakeConfig(
offsets: [0, -8, 8, -8, 8, 0],
weights: [1, 1, 1, 1, 1],
axis: ShakeAxis.both,
),
onShakeStart: () {
print('Shaken by GetX: Both');
},
child: const Icon(Icons.access_alarm, color: Colors.purple),
);
demo.triggerBoth();
π ShakeContainer β Stream #
Each direction uses its own StreamController.
Horizontal #
ShakeContainer(
trigger: triggerStreamH,
config: ShakePreset.error,
onShakeStart: () {
print('Shaken by Stream: Horizontal');
},
child: const Text('Horizontal shake'),
);
streamH.add(null);
Vertical #
ShakeContainer(
trigger: triggerStreamV,
config: ShakeConfig(
offsets: [0, -10, 10, -10, 10, 0],
weights: [1, 1, 1, 1, 1],
axis: ShakeAxis.vertical,
),
onShakeStart: () {
print('Shaken by Stream: Vertical');
},
child: const Text('Vertical shake'),
);
streamV.add(null);
Both Axis #
ShakeContainer(
trigger: triggerStreamB,
config: ShakeConfig(
offsets: [0, -8, 8, -8, 8, 0],
weights: [1, 1, 1, 1, 1],
axis: ShakeAxis.both,
),
onShakeStart: () {
print('Shaken by Stream: Both');
},
child: const Text('Both-axis shake'),
);
streamB.add(null);
