One reusable animation for multiple Angular components?

I am using animations in my Angular app, and many components use the same animation but for that I copy/paste the animation in each component. Can we reuse the animations without applying it on individual components.

You should create an animations.ts file, and import the animation you want in each component:

Example animations.ts

import {
  trigger,
  style,
  animate,
  transition,
  state,
  group
} from '@angular/animations';


export const rotations = [
  trigger('rotatedState', [
    state('default', style({
      transform: 'rotate(0)'
    })),
    state('rotated', style({
      transform: 'rotate(-180deg)'
    })),
    transition('rotated => default',
      animate('400ms ease-out')
    ),
    transition('default => rotated',
      animate('400ms ease-in')
    )
  ])
];

export const someOtherAnimations = [
  ...
];

Now import in component.ts:

import { rotations } from 'app/animations';

@Component({
  ...
  animations: [rotations],
})

Now you can use in your component.html:

<img @rotatedState >
