Overview

Bootstrap Drawer is an exclusive plugin of Metronic that provides a simple, smooth and lightweight option for hidden sidebars that are most used for navigations, shopping carts and a whole lot more.

Usage

Bootstrap Drawer's global style and scripts bundles and are globally included in all pages.
<link href="assets/css/style.bundle.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/>
<script src="assets/js/scripts.bundle.js"></script>

Initialization

  • Bootstrap Drawer's Javascript is globally initialized and added into our script bundle.
  • To initialize it, the drawer view component needs to be added within the page with a button trigger to toggle it.
  • Bootstrap Drawer instances can also be created programmatically. See below for more info.

Basic

There are 2 parts when adding in a drawer component. There's the trigger and the view component. The trigger can be anything with a specific idwhich needs to be defined in the view component.

The view component will then have a few HTML attributes that will set it's configuration options. The key attributes are:
  • data-kt-drawer
  • data-kt-drawer-activate
  • data-kt-drawer-toggle
  • data-kt-drawer-close
  • data-kt-drawer-width

Advanced

Bootstrap Drawer component can be easily configured by adding additional HTML attributes to the view component. For example, adding data-kt-drawer-directionwill indicate which side the drawer will slide out from ( startfor left and endfor right).

Adding data-kt-drawer-widthwill set the drawer view component's width and it's also very responsive and uses Bootstrap's default breakpoints to switch widths on certain screen sizes. For example: {default:'300px', 'md': '500px'}indicates that the drawer view component has 500pxwidth on screens larger than mdand 300pxfor every other screen size.

Bootstrap Drawers can also be toggled without binding the button idwith the drawer view component by adding data-kt-drawer-show="true"and data-kt-drawer-targetwith the drawer view component id.
<!--begin::Trigger button-->
<button class="btn btn-primary me-3" data-kt-drawer-show="true" data-kt-drawer-target="#kt_drawer_example_basic">Toggle basic drawer</button>
<button class="btn btn-primary" data-kt-drawer-show="true" data-kt-drawer-target="#kt_drawer_example_advanced">Toggle advanced drawer</button>
<!--end::Trigger button-->

Markup Reference

Scroll uses both CSS and HTML attributes to define the scroll configuration. Here are the references for each below
HTML Attribute references
Name Type Description
data-kt-drawer mandatory Defines the element as a drawer view component.
data-kt-drawer-activate optional
Enables the drawer view component. Accepts trueand falsevalues. Default value is set to true.
This is also compatible with Bootstrap's standard breakpoint sizing eg: sm, md, lg, xl. For responsive options, this attribute value must be written as a JSON string to specify values for multiple responsive breakpoints.
For example: {default: false, md: true}indicates that the drawer is activated only when width on screens larger than mdbreakpoint size.
data-kt-drawer-toggle optional Defines the toggle button id.
data-kt-drawer-close optional Defines the close button idwithin the drawer view component.
data-kt-drawer-name mandatory Defines the drawer view component's name for identification and used to append a special attribute to Body element to indicate the drawer's shown state.
data-kt-drawer-overlay optional Toggles the drawer view component as an overlay element or not. Accepts trueand falsevalues.
data-kt-drawer-width optional
Specifies the drawer view component's width in either a pxor %value. For example: 400pxor 25%
This is also compatible with Bootstrap's standard breakpoint sizing (eg: sm, md, lg, xl) with similar pxor %values. For responsive options, this attribute value must be written as an object string to enable multiple responsive breakpoints.
For example: {default:'300px', 'md': '500px'}indicates that the drawer view component has 500pxwidth on screens larger than mdand 300pxfor every other screen size.
data-kt-drawer-direction optional Defines the starting direction for the drawer view component. Accepts startfor left and endfor right values. Default value is set to end.
Please note that a drawer view component is a simple wrapper element that may contain all other components or elements within it. All HTML attributes should be added into the main wrapping element only.
