flippable_box

FlippableBox is a double-sided Container, that holds two pieces of content and automatically re-sizes to match its content, whenever its flipped over.

Usage

First import the package into your class:

import 'package:flippable_box/flippable_box.dart';

Create a FlippableBox with two child Containers. Change the isFlipped property to trigger the internal flip animation.

GestureDetector(
    onTap: () => setState(() => _isFlipped = !_isFlipped),
    child: FlippableBox(
        front: Container(width: 200, height: 200, color: Colors.white),
        back: Container(width: 300, height: 300, color: Colors.white),
        isFlipped: _isFlipped,
    ),
)

NOTE: It is required that the children are Containers, and have their size or constraints set manually, as shown in the example above. This is so the Box knows what its target size is when animating.

To control the flip animation, you can set duration, curve and flipVt which will cause the flip to be in the vertical axis rather than horizontal.

You can also specify a bg which takes a BoxDecoration, and a borderRadius in case you'd like to clip the child contents.

FlippableBox(
    front: child1,
    back: child2,
    isFlipped: _isFlipped,
    borderRadius: 32, //Uses a ClipRRect to clip contents of child containers
    bg: BoxDecoration(color: Colors.white), //Paints the box itself with a shared background
    duration: 0.5, //half second duration
    flipVt: true, //Flip vertically instead of horizontal
    curve: Curves.easeOut,
)

Example

How do I choose a repository?

Start with your use case, compare repository activity, and check the original project before adopting it.

  1. Search by repository name, owner or description, then narrow the results by topic.
  2. Compare stars, forks and recent pushes. Stars show community interest, not a guarantee of quality.
  3. Read the README, license and issues on GitHub before using a project.
