Flutter Drawer Widget Examples

A Drawer is a material design panel that slides in horizontally from the edge of a Scaffold to show navigation links in an application. It is an easy way to implement in an app with many pages of the same level.

Drawer

A basic drawer can be initiated as a child of Scaffold.

Scaffold(
  drawer: Drawer(
    child: // Populate the Drawer in the next step.
  )
);

Drawer Like Gmail Sidebar

We will use Drawer to make a drawer similar to Gmail’s.

import 'dart:ui';

import 'package:flutter/foundation.dart';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';


class HomePage extends StatefulWidget {
  @override
  _HomePageState createState() => _HomePageState();
}

class _HomePageState extends State<HomePage> {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      appBar: AppBar(
        title: Text('Gmail Sidebar'),
      ),
      drawer: Sidebar(),
      body: SafeArea(
          child: Column(
        children: [],
      )),
    );
  }
}

class Sidebar extends StatefulWidget {
  @override
  _SidebarState createState() => _SidebarState();
}

class _SidebarState extends State<Sidebar> {
  String _selectedLabel = 'All inboxes';
  final List<String> _mainFolders = ['Primary', 'Social', 'Promotions'];

  ListTile _tile(
      IconData iconData, String title, int count, VoidCallback _onTap) {
    Widget countString = Text('');
    if (count > 0) {
      countString = count > 99 ? Text('99+') : Text('$count');
    }

    if (_mainFolders.contains(title) && count > 0) {
      countString = Container(
        padding: EdgeInsets.all(4.0),
        decoration: BoxDecoration(
            border: Border.all(
              color: Colors.blue,
            ),
            borderRadius: BorderRadius.all(Radius.circular(20)),
          color: Colors.blue
        ),
        child: Text('$count new', style: TextStyle(color: Colors.white),),
      );
    }

    return ListTile(
      tileColor: _selectedLabel == title ? Colors.red[100] : Colors.transparent,
      leading: Icon(iconData),
      title: Text('$title'),
      trailing: countString,
      onTap: _onTap,
    );
  }
