Automatic timer start when used with controller

[hwied]

Hi thanks for this great work,

I made some adaptions. Feel free to pull if you want.

Adaptions:

• For easier code reading i separated the different classes into their own files
• It's cool that you can already start the timer automatically via TimerStatus. I added an option to start the timer automatically when using a controller (thereby https://github.com/smladeoye/flutter-simple-timer/issues/9 should be completely fixed)

All the best!

hey hwied, thanks for replying w your code. How do I upvote you or anything here? Pretty new to this. I find it hard to understand the github code without context, as you would probably be building smth diff? Was wondering if you could take a look at my code here and advise of any changes you think necessary to effect the change? Your help will be much appreciated!

Hi thanks for your triple appreciation ;)

You can upvote when clicking on the smiley in the upper right corner of each comment.

Regarding your problem. I didn't have time to study your code. But:

• The error regarding the missing Duration for the Animation occurde for me to and I fixed it in my PR.
• If you want to start the timer automatically you have to options with this package:
  • If you don't need to access the controller, you can leave the controller argument empty and instead set the status argument to TimerStatus.start
  • In case you need the controller you can simply make sure that when you are rebuilding your widget you call _controller.start() as was already replied to your stackoverflow question.

Bonne courage!
