The component looks good in the demo but I have not been able to use it with Vaadin 14 using the springframework. I get an error at the Animator animator = Animator.init(UI.getCurrent()) line. There seems to be no init() class in the Animator class declaration.
The Animator.init(ui) method is new in Version 1.0.0, so you cannot use it in 0.9.0. I can see Version 1.0.0 (for Vaadin 14 released on Sep 01, 2019) in the link that you mentioned in your post: https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/de.mekaso.vaadin.addons/compani
It is also published in the official Vaadin-addons repository.
If you want to use Version 0.9.0 with Vaadin 14 bower compatibility mode (I think that is the problem here), you have to create an animator instance and add it to your UI.
Hi Mekaso,
Thank you for replying to the message.
When add dependency version 1.0.0 to the POM file, it does not get integrated and generates an error (see the attached picture). So I am not able to use version 1.0.0. Do you have any suggestions on how to resolve this?
In addition, when when I run the code above using version 0.9.0, the line: final Animator animator = Animator.create(); generates the error below and the program crashes. Any advice?

It seems the artifact was not correctly downloaded from the repository. The exception says that you use Vaadin 14 in NPM mode and are trying to use an addon that was made for Vaadin 10 - 13. So you need to use V 1.0.0 for your application.
The attached picture shows that it was not correctly downloaded from the official maven repository. This can happen and you just need to repeat the download step. Please delete the addon directory from your local repository (that is default at users/[your username]
/.m2) like de/mekaso/vaadin/addons/compani/1.0.0 .
After deleting this directory, force eclipse to download the library again (right-click the project Maven - Update Project…), click OK and the jar will be downloaded again (the URL is https://maven.vaadin.com/vaadin-addons/de/mekaso/vaadin/addons/compani/1.0.0/compani-1.0.0.jar). After it was successfully downloaded, the addon will work out of the box. Just follow the examples in the code samples section of this addon page.
Also don’t forget to add the addon-repository to your pom.xml:
Hi Mekaso, I have implemented your suggestion but it is still not working. I deleted the /.m2/de directory in my local repository. Then I ran a Maven->Reimport, which restored the addon. But I am still getting the same problem demoNstrated in the image attached. I am also using IntelliJ IDE if this may make any difference. And I get a BUILD FAILURE with the error message below when I try to run it:

Hi,
thanks for your post. It seems the maven structure was corrupted or not properly uploaded in the 1.0.0 release. I fixed that and made a new version available for you. Please try again with V 1.0.1.
