Rx2Animations

RxAnimations is a library with the main goal to make android animations more solid and cohesive.

RxJava version compatibility:

This Rx2Animations library is only compatible with rxJava 2.

If you are searching for the one compatible with rxJava 1, take a look over here.

Usage

A sample project which provides code examples that demonstrate uses of the classes in this project is available in the sample-app/ folder.

True power of this library is the ability to use animations as an observable asynchronous action.
That enables us to apply regular rxJava APIs on the animations.

It provides a couple of classes such as RxValueAnimator, RxValueObservable and RxAnimationBuilder.
Moreover, it also provides many regulary used animation methods (static import) such as fadeIn(), fadeOut(), slideIn(), leave() etc.

Examples:

• Animating multiple views together

        animateTogether(fadeIn(firstView),
                        fadeIn(secondView));

• Chaining multiple animations seamlessly

        fadeIn(firstView)
            .concatWith(fadeIn(secondView));

• Simple ValueAnimator usage with RxValueAnimator

        final ValueAnimator opacityAnimator = ValueAnimator.ofFloat(0.f, 1.f);
        RxValueAnimator.from(opacityAnimator, animator -> view.setAlpha((float)animator.getAnimatedValue()))

• Animating multiple values together with RxValueObservable

        xObservableAnimator = RxValueObservable.from(xAnimator);
        yObservableAnimator = RxValueObservable.from(yAnimator);
        
        Observable.combineLatest(xObservableAnimator.subscribe(),
                                 yObservableAnimator.subscribe(),
                                 (first, second) -> new Pair(first, second))
                  .subscribe(this::updateView);

• Defining custom animations with RxAnimationBuilder

        RxAnimationBuilder.animate(view, DURATION)
                          .interpolator(INTERPOLATOR)
                          .fadeIn()
                          .rotate(DEGREES)
                          .translateBy(X, Y)
                          ...
                          .schedule([ | false]);

Animation created with RxAnimationBuilder automatically pretransforms the view, if not set otherwise.
I.e. if fadeIn() is called, views opacity will be set to 0.f before animation starts.

Managing animations

Starting animation - Every animation chain is started when we subscribe to it.
Ending animation - Animations can be easily stopped by unsubscribing animation subscription.
