Flutter: How to open Drawer programmatically

Question

I want to open Drawer programmatically not by sliding it, how to disable that sliding functionality (touch functionality of Drawer)

Answer 1

To disable the slide to open functionality you can set the property endDrawerEnableOpenDragGesture on Scaffold to false.

@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
  return Scaffold(
    endDrawerEnableOpenDragGesture: false, // THIS WAY IT WILL NOT OPEN
    drawer: Drawer(),
    appBar: AppBar(
      leading: IconButton(
        icon: Icon(Icons.menu),
        onPressed: () {
          Scaffold.of(context).openDrawer();
        },
      ),
    ),
  );
}
