hnvn/flutter_shimmer

This system is a Flutter library that provides a customizable Shimmer loading effect widget, supporting gradient-based patterns, directional animation, and lifecycle controls. It includes a regenerated example application demonstrating modern Flutter standards and null safety. Additionally, it provides a CI tool to summarize test coverage metrics from lcov output.

Added \tool/coverage\_summary.py\, a Python script that parses Flutter lcov output to display per-file and total test coverage percentages in the terminal. When run with the \--github-summary\ flag in GitHub Actions, it also generates a markdown table of coverage details and writes it to the workflow step summary, facilitating visibility into test coverage metrics during continuous integration.

tool · high confidence

The example application has been regenerated to align with current Flutter tooling standards. This update includes a migration to null safety, the adoption of the standalone material\_ui package, and the addition of a standard analysis\_options.yaml configuration for static analysis. Platform-specific project structures for Android, iOS, Linux, and macOS have been recreated to support modern embedding and build systems, and new placeholder widgets have been added to demonstrate UI patterns.

example · high confidence

This release introduces a breaking change where the package now depends on the standalone \material\_ui\ package instead of \package:flutter/material.dart\, requiring Flutter \>=3.44.0 and Dart ^3.12.0. Existing codebases must update their imports to use \package:material\_ui/material\_ui.dart\ and can wrap legacy \package:flutter/material.dart\ subtrees in \MaterialUiCompatibilityBridge\ to maintain compatibility. The changelog also notes improvements to animation lifecycle management, such as keeping duration in sync with period changes and using \AnimationController.repeat()\ for infinite loops, alongside expanded documentation and tests.

(repo-wide) · high confidence

The Shimmer widget has been redesigned to replace the previous baseColor/highlightColor parameters with a flexible Gradient object, allowing users to define custom shimmer patterns. A new ShimmerDirection enum (ltr, rtl, ttb, btt) lets users control the animation flow, while an enabled property allows pausing the effect and a loop property controls repetition counts. The implementation now uses SingleTickerProviderStateMixin for better performance and includes proper lifecycle management to handle state updates and animation status changes correctly.

lib · high confidence

Added comprehensive widget tests for the Shimmer component, verifying construction via both color-based and gradient-based constructors, default property values (direction, period, loop, enabled state), child rendering, and animation behavior including pausing/resuming on enable toggles, stopping after a specified loop count, and restarting when re-enabled.

test · high confidence

The example application has been significantly updated to align with current Flutter and Android development practices. The Android build configuration now uses AndroidX, Kotlin (version 1.7.10), and the Android Gradle Plugin 7.3.0, replacing the legacy support libraries and older Gradle setup. On the Dart side, the example's \pubspec.yaml\ and lockfile have been refreshed to target SDK ^3.12.0, introducing \material\_ui\ ^1.0.1 and \flutter\_lints\ ^2.0.0, while updating core transitive dependencies like \async\ to 2.11.0 and \collection\ to 1.19.1. The main library's \pubspec.yaml\ was also updated to version 4.0.0 with SDK ^3.12.0 and added \material\_ui\ as a dependency.
