Is it possible to set startDestination conditionally using Android Navigation Architecture Component(Android Jetpack)?

Question

I am using Navigation from Android Jetpack to navigate between screens. Now I want to set startDestination dynamically.

I have an Activity named MainActivity And t

Answer 1

Finally, I got a solution to my query...

Put below code in onCreate() method of Activity.

Kotlin code

val navHostFragment = home_nav_fragment as NavHostFragment
val inflater = navHostFragment.navController.navInflater
val graph = inflater.inflate(R.navigation.nav_main)
graph.setDefaultArguments(intent.extras)
graph.startDestination = R.id.fragment1
//or
//graph.startDestination = R.id.fragment2

navHostFragment.navController.graph = graph

Java code

NavHostFragment navHostFragment = (NavHostFragment) getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.home_nav_fragment);  // Hostfragment
NavInflater inflater = navHostFragment.getNavController().getNavInflater();
NavGraph graph = inflater.inflate(R.navigation.nav_main);
graph.setDefaultArguments(getIntent().getExtras());
graph.setStartDestination(R.id.fragment1);

navHostFragment.getNavController().setGraph(graph);
navHostFragment.getNavController().getGraph().setDefaultArguments(getIntent().getExtras());


NavigationView navigationView = findViewById(R.id.navigationView);
NavigationUI.setupWithNavController(navigationView, navHostFragment.getNavController());

Additional Info

As @artnest suggested, remove the app:navGraph attribute from the layout. It would look something like this after removal

In the case of a fragment tag used instead of FragmentContainerView, the above changes remain the same
