[dart-misc] Angular 2, routing and animations

[Gonzalo Chumillas]

'm currently working in a project that uses the routing approach (not
documentation yet for Dart):
https://angular.io/docs/ts/latest/guide/router-deprecated.html

And I wonder how could I control the transition between different views. I
read about the CssAnimationBuilder, but there is no much documentation
about this class.

Thanks.

I guess you need to create a custom `RouterOutlet` implementation. The
problem with the current implementation is, that it removes the old
component and then inserts a new one. I'm not an animation specialist but I
think this makes it pretty hard to animate.
I think it would need to add the new component, set some classes or
attributes that can be targeted for animation and listens to the
animationEnd event to then remove the classes or attributes and removes the
old component.
But there is a new router and full animation support on its way. I'd rather
wait for this to arrive instead of spending time on something that is about
to vanish.

Thank you very much for your help. I think that I prefer to wait for the new implementation.

Just read my last comment again and think there might be something prone to
misunderstanding.

There is proper animation support on its
way

and there is a new router on its
way http://victorsavkin.com/post/145672529346/angular-router

I didn't mean to say that the new router will have full animation support.
You might sill need to build something yourself but then you can build on
components that are meant to stay and you might be able to leverage the new
animation package.
