# Lottie player
Allows to use Lottie animations in LVGL. Taken from this [base repository](https://github.com/ValentiWorkLearning/lv_rlottie)
LVGL provides the interface to [Samsung/rlottie](https://github.com/Samsung/rlottie) library's C API. That is the actual Lottie player is not part of LVGL, it needs to be built separately.
## Build Rlottie
To build Samsung's Rlottie C++14-compatible compiler and optionally CMake 3.14 or higher is required.
To build on desktop you can follow the instructions from Rlottie's [README](https://github.com/Samsung/rlottie/blob/master/README.md). In the most basic case it looks like this:
```
mkdir rlottie_workdir
cd rlottie_workdir
git clone https://github.com/Samsung/rlottie.git
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ../rlottie
make -j
sudo make install
```
And finally add the `-lrlottie` flag to your linker.
On embedded systems you need to take care of integrating Rlottie to the given build system.
## Usage
You can use animation from files or raw data (text). In either case first you need to enable `LV_USE_RLOTTIE` in `lv_conf.h`.
The `width` and `height` of the object be set in the *create* function and the animation will be scaled accordingly.
### Use Rlottie from file
To create a Lottie animation from file use:
```c
lv_obj_t * lottie = lv_rlottie_create_from_file(parent, width, height, "path/to/lottie.json");
```
Note that, Rlottie uses the standard STDIO C file API, so you can use the path "normally" and no LVGL specific driver letter is required.
### Use Rlottie from raw string data
`lv_example_rlottie_approve.c` contains an example animation in raw format. Instead storing the JSON string a hex array is stored for the following reasons:
- avoid escaping `"` in the JSON file
- some compilers don't support very long strings
`lvgl/scripts/filetohex.py` can be used to convert a Lottie file a hex array. E.g.:
```
./filetohex.py path/to/lottie.json > out.txt
```
To create an animation from raw data:
```c
extern const uint8_t lottie_data[];
lv_obj_t* lottie = lv_rlottie_create_from_raw(parent, width, height, (const char *)lottie_data);
```
## Getting animations
Lottie is standard and popular format so you can find many animation files on the web.
For example: https://lottiefiles.com/
You can also create your own animations with Adobe After Effects or similar software.
## Controlling animations
LVGL provides two functions to control the animation mode: `lv_rlottie_set_play_mode` and `lv_rlottie_set_current_frame`.
You'll combine your intentions when calling the first method, like in these examples:
```c
lv_obj_t * lottie = lv_rlottie_create_from_file(scr, 128, 128, "test.json");
lv_obj_center(lottie);
// Pause to a specific frame
lv_rlottie_set_current_frame(lottie, 50);
lv_rlottie_set_play_mode(lottie, LV_RLOTTIE_CTRL_PAUSE); // The specified frame will be displayed and then the animation will pause
// Play backward and loop
lv_rlottie_set_play_mode(lottie, LV_RLOTTIE_CTRL_PLAY | LV_RLOTTIE_CTRL_BACKWARD | LV_RLOTTIE_CTRL_LOOP);
// Play forward once (no looping)
lv_rlottie_set_play_mode(lottie, LV_RLOTTIE_CTRL_PLAY | LV_RLOTTIE_CTRL_FORWARD);
```
The default animation mode is **play forward with loop**.
If you don't enable looping, a `LV_EVENT_READY` is sent when the animation can not make more progress without looping.
To get the number of frames in an animation or the current frame index, you can cast the `lv_obj_t` instance to a `lv_rlottie_t` instance and inspect the `current_frame` and `total_frames` members.
