深入理解Flutter动画原理

基于Flutter 1.5，从源码视角来深入剖析flutter动画原理，相关源码目录见文末附录

一、概述

动画效果对于系统的用户体验非常重要，好的动画能让用户感觉界面更加顺畅，提升用户体验。

1.1 动画类型

Flutter动画大的分类来说主要分为两大类：

• 补间动画：给定初值与终值，系统自动补齐中间帧的动画
• 物理动画：遵循物理学定律的动画，实现了弹簧、阻尼、重力三种物理效果

在应用使用过程中常见动画模式：

• 动画列表或者网格：例如元素的添加或者删除操作；
• 转场动画Shared element transition：例如从当前页面打开另一页面的过渡动画；
• 交错动画Staggered animations：比如部分或者完全交错的动画。

1.2 类图

核心类：

• Animation对象是整个动画中非常核心的一个类；
• AnimationController用于管理Animation；
• CurvedAnimation过程是非线性曲线；
• Tween补间动画
• Listeners和StatusListeners用于监听动画状态改变。

AnimationStatus是枚举类型，有4个值；

取值	解释
dismissed	动画在开始时停止
forward	动画从头到尾绘制
reverse	动画反向绘制，从尾到头
completed	动画在结束时停止

1.3 动画实例

 //[见小节2.1]
AnimationController animationController = AnimationController(
    vsync: this, duration: Duration(milliseconds: 1000));
Animation animation = Tween(begin: 0.0,end: 10.0).animate(animationController);
animationController.addListener(() {
  setState(() {});
});
 //[见小节2.2]
animationController.forward();

该过程说明：

• AnimationController作为Animation子类，在屏幕刷新时生成一系列值，默认情况下从0到1区间的取值。
• Tween的animate()方法来自于父类Animatable，该方法返回的对象类型为_AnimatedEvaluation，而该对象最核心的工作就是通过value来调用Tween的transform()；

调用链：

AnimationController.forward
  AnimationController.\_animateToInternal
    AnimationController.\_startSimulation
      Ticker.start()
        Ticker.scheduleTick()
          SchedulerBinding.scheduleFrameCallback()
            SchedulerBinding.scheduleFrame()
              ...
                Ticker.\_tick
                  AnimationController.\_tick
                  Ticker.scheduleTick

二、原理分析

2.1 AnimationController初始化

[-> lib/src/animation/animation_controller.dart]

AnimationController({
  double value,
  this.duration,
  this.debugLabel,
  this.lowerBound = 0.0,
  this.upperBound = 1.0,
  this.animationBehavior = AnimationBehavior.normal,
  @required TickerProvider vsync,
}) : _direction = _AnimationDirection.forward {
  _ticker = vsync.createTicker(_tick);  //[见小节2.1.1]
  _internalSetValue(value ?? lowerBound); //[见小节2.1.3]
}

该方法说明：

• AnimationController初始化过程，一般都设置duration和vsync初值；
• upperBound(上边界值)和lowerBound(下边界值)都不能为空，且upperBound必须大于等于lowerBound；
• 创建默认的动画方向为向前(_AnimationDirection.forward)；
• 调用类型为TickerProvider的vsync对象的createTicker()方法来创建Ticker对象；

TickerProvider作为抽象类，主要的子类有SingleTickerProviderStateMixin和TickerProviderStateMixin，这两个类的区别就是是否支持创建多个TickerProvider，这里SingleTickerProviderStateMixin为例展开。

2.1.1 createTicker

[-> lib/src/widgets/ticker_provider.dart]

mixin SingleTickerProviderStateMixin<T extends StatefulWidget> on State<T> implements TickerProvider {
  Ticker _ticker;

  Ticker createTicker(TickerCallback onTick) {
     //[见小节2.1.2]
    _ticker = Ticker(onTick, debugLabel: 'created by $this');
    return _ticker;
  }

2.1.2 Ticker初始化

[-> lib/src/scheduler/ticker.dart]

class Ticker {
  Ticker(this._onTick, { this.debugLabel }) {
  }  

  final TickerCallback _onTick;
}

将AnimationControllerd对象中的_tick()方法，赋值给Ticker对象的_onTick成员变量，再来看看该_tick方法。

2.1.3 _internalSetValue

[-> lib/src/animation/animation_controller.dart ::AnimationController]

void _internalSetValue(double newValue) {
  _value = newValue.clamp(lowerBound, upperBound);
  if (_value == lowerBound) {
    _status = AnimationStatus.dismissed;
  } else if (_value == upperBound) {
    _status = AnimationStatus.completed;
  } else {
    _status = (_direction == _AnimationDirection.forward) ?
      AnimationStatus.forward :
      AnimationStatus.reverse;
  }
}

根据当前的value值来初始化动画状态_status

2.2 forward

[-> lib/src/animation/animation_controller.dart ::AnimationController]

TickerFuture forward({ double from }) {
  //默认采用向前的动画方向
  _direction = _AnimationDirection.forward;
  if (from != null)
    value = from;
  return _animateToInternal(upperBound); //[见小节2.3]
}

_AnimationDirection是枚举类型，有forward(向前)和reverse(向后)两个值，也就是说该方法的功能是指从from开始向前滑动，

2.3 _animateToInternal

[-> lib/src/animation/animation_controller.dart ::AnimationController]

TickerFuture _animateToInternal(double target, { Duration duration, Curve curve = Curves.linear }) {
  double scale = 1.0;
  if (SemanticsBinding.instance.disableAnimations) {
    switch (animationBehavior) {
      case AnimationBehavior.normal:
        scale = 0.05;
        break;
      case AnimationBehavior.preserve:
        break;
    }
  }
  Duration simulationDuration = duration;
  if (simulationDuration == null) {
    final double range = upperBound - lowerBound;
    final double remainingFraction = range.isFinite ? (target - _value).abs() / range : 1.0;
    //根据剩余动画的百分比来评估仿真动画剩余时长
    simulationDuration = this.duration * remainingFraction;
  } else if (target == value) {
    //已到达动画终点，不再执行动画
    simulationDuration = Duration.zero;
  }
  //停止老的动画[见小节2.3.1]
  stop();
  if (simulationDuration == Duration.zero) {
    if (value != target) {
      _value = target.clamp(lowerBound, upperBound);
      notifyListeners();
    }
    _status = (_direction == _AnimationDirection.forward) ?
      AnimationStatus.completed :
      AnimationStatus.dismissed;
    _checkStatusChanged();
    //当动画执行时间已到，则直接结束
    return TickerFuture.complete();
  }
  //[见小节2.4]
  return _startSimulation(_InterpolationSimulation(_value, target, simulationDuration, curve, scale));
}

默认采用的是线性动画曲线Curves.linear。

2.3.1 AnimationController.stop

void stop({ bool canceled = true }) {
  _simulation = null;
  _lastElapsedDuration = null;
  //[见小节2.3.2]
  _ticker.stop(canceled: canceled);
}

2.3.2 Ticker.stop

[-> lib/src/scheduler/ticker.dart]

void stop({ bool canceled = false }) {
  if (!isActive) //已经不活跃，则直接返回
    return;

  final TickerFuture localFuture = _future;
  _future = null;
  _startTime = null;

  //[见小节2.3.3]
  unscheduleTick();
  if (canceled) {
    localFuture._cancel(this);
  } else {
    localFuture._complete();
  }
}

2.3.3 Ticker.unscheduleTick

[-> lib/src/scheduler/ticker.dart]

void unscheduleTick() {
  if (scheduled) {
    SchedulerBinding.instance.cancelFrameCallbackWithId(_animationId);
    _animationId = null;
  }
}

2.3.4 _InterpolationSimulation初始化

[-> lib/src/animation/animation_controller.dart ::_InterpolationSimulation]

class _InterpolationSimulation extends Simulation {
  _InterpolationSimulation(this._begin, this._end, Duration duration, this._curve, double scale)
    : _durationInSeconds = (duration.inMicroseconds * scale) / Duration.microsecondsPerSecond;

  final double _durationInSeconds;
  final double _begin;
  final double _end;
  final Curve _curve;
}

该方法创建插值模拟器对象，并初始化起点、终点、动画曲线以及时长。这里用的Curve是线性模型，也就是说采用的是匀速运动。

2.4 _startSimulation

[-> lib/src/animation/animation_controller.dart]

TickerFuture _startSimulation(Simulation simulation) {
  _simulation = simulation;
  _lastElapsedDuration = Duration.zero;
  _value = simulation.x(0.0).clamp(lowerBound, upperBound);
  //[见小节2.5]
  final TickerFuture result = _ticker.start();
  _status = (_direction == _AnimationDirection.forward) ?
    AnimationStatus.forward :
    AnimationStatus.reverse;
  //[见小节2.4.1]
  _checkStatusChanged();
  return result;
}

2.4.1 _checkStatusChanged

[-> lib/src/animation/animation_controller.dart]

void _checkStatusChanged() {
  final AnimationStatus newStatus = status;
  if (_lastReportedStatus != newStatus) {
    _lastReportedStatus = newStatus;
    notifyStatusListeners(newStatus); //通知状态改变
  }
}

这里会回调_statusListeners中的所有状态监听器，这里的状态就是指AnimationStatus的dismissed、forward、reverse以及completed。

2.5 Ticker.start

[-> lib/src/scheduler/ticker.dart]

TickerFuture start() {
  _future = TickerFuture._();
  if (shouldScheduleTick) {
    scheduleTick();   //[见小节2.6]
  }
  if (SchedulerBinding.instance.schedulerPhase.index > SchedulerPhase.idle.index &&
      SchedulerBinding.instance.schedulerPhase.index < SchedulerPhase.postFrameCallbacks.index)
    _startTime = SchedulerBinding.instance.currentFrameTimeStamp;
  return _future;
}

此处的shouldScheduleTick等于!muted && isActive && !scheduled，也就是没有调度过的活跃状态才会调用Tick。

2.6 Ticker.scheduleTick

[-> lib/src/scheduler/ticker.dart]

void scheduleTick({ bool rescheduling = false }) {
  //[见小节2.7]
  _animationId = SchedulerBinding.instance.scheduleFrameCallback(_tick, rescheduling: rescheduling);
}

此处的_tick会在下一次vysnc触发时回调执行，见小节2.10。

2.7 scheduleFrameCallback

[-> lib/src/scheduler/binding.dart]

int scheduleFrameCallback(FrameCallback callback, { bool rescheduling = false }) {
    //[见小节2.8]
  scheduleFrame();
  _nextFrameCallbackId += 1;
  _transientCallbacks[_nextFrameCallbackId] = _FrameCallbackEntry(callback, rescheduling: rescheduling);
  return _nextFrameCallbackId;
}

将前面传递过来的Ticker._tick()方法保存在_FrameCallbackEntry的callback中，然后将_FrameCallbackEntry记录在Map类型的_transientCallbacks，

2.8 scheduleFrame

[-> lib/src/scheduler/binding.dart]

void scheduleFrame() {
  if (_hasScheduledFrame || !_framesEnabled)
    return;
  ui.window.scheduleFrame();
  _hasScheduledFrame = true;
}

从文章Flutter之setState更新机制，可知此处调用的ui.window.scheduleFrame()，会注册vsync监听。当当下一次vsync信号的到来时会执行handleBeginFrame()。

2.9 handleBeginFrame

[-> lib/src/scheduler/binding.dart:: SchedulerBinding]

void handleBeginFrame(Duration rawTimeStamp) {
  Timeline.startSync('Frame', arguments: timelineWhitelistArguments);
  _firstRawTimeStampInEpoch ??= rawTimeStamp;
  _currentFrameTimeStamp = _adjustForEpoch(rawTimeStamp ?? _lastRawTimeStamp);
  if (rawTimeStamp != null)
    _lastRawTimeStamp = rawTimeStamp;
  ...

  //此时阶段等于SchedulerPhase.idle;
  _hasScheduledFrame = false;
  try {
    Timeline.startSync('Animate', arguments: timelineWhitelistArguments);
    _schedulerPhase = SchedulerPhase.transientCallbacks;
    //执行动画的回调方法
    final Map<int, _FrameCallbackEntry> callbacks = _transientCallbacks;
    _transientCallbacks = <int, _FrameCallbackEntry>{};
    callbacks.forEach((int id, _FrameCallbackEntry callbackEntry) {
      if (!_removedIds.contains(id))
        _invokeFrameCallback(callbackEntry.callback, _currentFrameTimeStamp, callbackEntry.debugStack);
    });
    _removedIds.clear();
  } finally {
    _schedulerPhase = SchedulerPhase.midFrameMicrotasks;
  }
}

该方法主要功能是遍历_transientCallbacks，从前面小节[2.7]，可知该过程会执行Ticker._tick()方法。

2.10 Ticker._tick

[-> lib/src/scheduler/ticker.dart]

void _tick(Duration timeStamp) {
  _animationId = null;
  _startTime ??= timeStamp;
  //[见小节2.11]
  _onTick(timeStamp - _startTime);
  //根据活跃状态来决定是否再次调度
  if (shouldScheduleTick)
    scheduleTick(rescheduling: true);
}

该方法主要功能：

• 小节[2.1.2]的Ticker初始化中，可知此处_onTick便是AnimationController的_tick()方法；
• 小节[2.5]已介绍当仍处于活跃状态，则会再次调度，回到小节[2.6]的scheduleTick()，从而形成动画的连续绘制过程。

2.11 AnimationController._tick

[-> lib/src/animation/animation_controller.dart]

void _tick(Duration elapsed) {
  _lastElapsedDuration = elapsed;
  //获取已过去的时长
  final double elapsedInSeconds = elapsed.inMicroseconds.toDouble() / Duration.microsecondsPerSecond;
  _value = _simulation.x(elapsedInSeconds).clamp(lowerBound, upperBound);
  if (_simulation.isDone(elapsedInSeconds)) {
    _status = (_direction == _AnimationDirection.forward) ?
      AnimationStatus.completed :
      AnimationStatus.dismissed;
    stop(canceled: false); //当动画已完成，则停止
  }
  notifyListeners();   //通知监听器[见小节2.11.1]
  _checkStatusChanged(); //通知状态监听器[见小节2.11.2]
}

2.11.1 notifyListeners

[-> lib/src/animation/listener_helpers.dart ::AnimationLocalListenersMixin]

void notifyListeners() {
  final List<VoidCallback> localListeners = List<VoidCallback>.from(_listeners);
  for (VoidCallback listener in localListeners) {
    try {
      if (_listeners.contains(listener))
        listener();
    } catch (exception, stack) {
      ...
    }
  }
}

AnimationLocalListenersMixin的addListener()会向_listeners中添加监听器

2.11.2 _checkStatusChanged

[-> lib/src/animation/listener_helpers.dart ::AnimationLocalStatusListenersMixin]

void notifyStatusListeners(AnimationStatus status) {
  final List<AnimationStatusListener> localListeners = List<AnimationStatusListener>.from(_statusListeners);
  for (AnimationStatusListener listener in localListeners) {
    try {
      if (_statusListeners.contains(listener))
        listener(status);
    } catch (exception, stack) {
      ...
    }
  }
}

从前面的小节[2.4.1]可知，当状态改变时会调用notifyStatusListeners方法。AnimationLocalStatusListenersMixin的addStatusListener()会向_statusListeners添加状态监听器。
