# SimpleTimer A Simple Timer Widget that displays the timer progress with various customizable options. ## Installing To Start using this library include **simple_timer** as a dependency in your **puspec.yaml** file. Make sure to include the latest version. **Pub link:** https://pub.dev/packages/simple_timer ## Usage To use the widget, import the package in your project ``` import 'package:simple_timer/simple_timer.dart'; ``` The timer can be controlled in two ways: * **Using a TimerController (preferred)** - The TimerController is a convenience wrapper (subclass) of an AnimationController and needs a TickerProvider, so be sure to **extend a TickerProvider in your class**. Declare and instantiate your timer controller like below: ``` // declaration TimerController _timerController; // instantiation _timerController = TimerController(this); ``` **Note: Remember to dispose the TimerController** and set the controller property to the TimerController object like below: ``` Container( child: SimpleTimer( controller: _timerController, duration: Duration(seconds: 10), ) ) ``` **TimerController methods:**

Method	Description
start	Starts the timer e.g. (_timerController.start())
pause	Pauses the timer e.g. (_timerController.pause())
reset	Resets the timer e.g. (_timerController.reset())
restart	Restarts the timer e.g. (_timerController.restart())
add	Increases time left by the specified duration i.e. allows more time e.g. (_timerController.add(Duration(seconds: 10)))
subtract	Decreases time left by the specified duration i.e. reduces the time e.g. (_timerController.subtract(Duration(seconds: 10)))

* **Setting the Status** - The timer can also be controler by passing a **TimerStatus** value to the status property; like below: ``` Container( child: SimpleTimer( status: TimerStatus.start, duration: Duration(seconds: 10), ) ) ``` **Note: The SimpleTimer widget uses its parent size.** ### Customizable Options There are various customizable options provided by the SimpleTimer widget, see below:

Property	Description	Value Type	Default Value
duration	The duration of the timer	Duration
controller	A TimerController to control the timer. If this is provided then status must be null.	TimerController
status	An alternative to the controller that sets the status of the timer. If provided, controller must be null	TimerStatus
timerStyle	Sets the look of the animated timer widget	TimerStyle	ring
delay	Sets a start delay for timer - i.e. delays the start of the timer by the specified duration	Duration	Duration(seconds: 0)
backgroundColor	The background color of the inner shape (circle) of the timer	Color	grey
progressIndicatorColor	The color of the animating progress indicator.	Color	green
progressIndicatorDirection	The rotating direction of the timer's progress indicator	TimerProgressIndicatorDirection	clockwise
displayProgressIndicator	Sets whether to show the progress indicator	bool	true
displayProgressText	Sets whether to show the progress text	bool	true
progressTextStyle	The TextStyle used by the progress text.	TextStyle
progressTextCountDirection	The counting direction of the text displayed by the timer	TimerProgressTextCountDirection	count_down
progressTextFormatter	A callback function to format the text displayed by this Timer.	String Function(Duration)	displays duration in MM:SS format
onStart	Callback executed when the timer starts counting	VoidCallback
onEnd	Callback executed when the timer has finished counting	VoidCallback
valueListener	The callback executed for each change in the time elapsed	void Function(Duration)
