How to repeat an animation with AnimationController in Flutter with Flushbar?

Question

I'm using the Flushbar plugin for Flutter.
The plugin works very well, but I can't understand how can I repeat the animation played by the animation controller that I attach to it.

AnimationController _controller;

@override
void initState() {
  _controller = AnimationController(
      vsync: this,
      duration: Duration(seconds: 3),
    );
  super.initState();
}

@override
void dispose() {
  _controller.dispose();
  super.dispose();
}

void showFlushBar() {
    Flushbar(
        titleText: Text(
          "Title",
          style: TextStyle(
              fontFamily: 'Futura',
              color: Colors.white,
              fontSize: MediaQuery.of(context).size.width / 18),
        ),
        messageText: Text(
          "Message"
          style: TextStyle(
              fontFamily: 'Futura',
              color: Colors.white,
              fontSize: MediaQuery.of(context).size.width / 25),
        ),
        showProgressIndicator: true,
        progressIndicatorBackgroundColor: Colors.blueGrey,
        progressIndicatorController: _controller,
      )..show(context);
      _controller.forward();
}

The first time the animation works well, but from the second time I get this error:

E/flutter (29680): [ERROR:flutter/lib/ui/ui_dart_state.cc(157)] Unhandled Exception: 'package:flutter/src/animation/animation_controller.dart': Failed assertion: line 451 pos 7: '_ticker != null': AnimationController.forward() called after AnimationController.dispose()

I really can't find a solution, neither on S.O. nor anywhere else on the Internet, so please help me.
Thanks in advance

I solved the issue! It was a problem with the mixin: I was using SingleTickerProviderStateMixin, when for this purpose I needed a TickerProviderStateMixin.
