Drawer

[component-header:sl-drawer]

Drawers slide in from a container to expose additional options and information.

<sl-drawer label="Drawer" class="drawer-overview">
  Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
  <sl-button slot="footer" type="primary">Close</sl-button>
</sl-drawer>

<sl-button>Open Drawer</sl-button>

<script>
  (() => {
    const drawer = document.querySelector('.drawer-overview');
    const openButton = drawer.nextElementSibling;
    const closeButton = drawer.querySelector('sl-button[type="primary"]');

    openButton.addEventListener('click', () => drawer.show());
    closeButton.addEventListener('click', () => drawer.hide());
  })();
</script>

Examples

Slide in From Left

To make the drawer slide in from the left, set the placement attribute to left.

<sl-drawer label="Drawer" placement="left" class="drawer-placement-left">
  This drawer slides in from the left.
  <sl-button slot="footer" type="primary">Close</sl-button>
</sl-drawer>

<sl-button>Open Drawer</sl-button>

<script>
  (() => {
    const drawer = document.querySelector('.drawer-placement-left');
    const openButton = drawer.nextElementSibling;
    const closeButton = drawer.querySelector('sl-button[type="primary"]');

    openButton.addEventListener('click', () => drawer.show());
    closeButton.addEventListener('click', () => drawer.hide());
  })();
</script>

Slide in From Top

To make the drawer slide in from the top, set the placement attribute to top.

<sl-drawer label="Drawer" placement="top" class="drawer-placement-top">
  This drawer slides in from the top.
  <sl-button slot="footer" type="primary">Close</sl-button>
</sl-drawer>

<sl-button>Open Drawer</sl-button>

<script>
  (() => {
    const drawer = document.querySelector('.drawer-placement-top');
    const openButton = drawer.nextElementSibling;
    const closeButton = drawer.querySelector('sl-button[type="primary"]');

    openButton.addEventListener('click', () => drawer.show());
    closeButton.addEventListener('click', () => drawer.hide());
  })();
</script>

Slide in From Bottom

To make the drawer slide in from the bottom, set the placement attribute to bottom.

<sl-drawer label="Drawer" placement="bottom" class="drawer-placement-bottom">
  This drawer slides in from the bottom.
  <sl-button slot="footer" type="primary">Close</sl-button>
</sl-drawer>

<sl-button>Open Drawer</sl-button>

<script>
  (() => {
    const drawer = document.querySelector('.drawer-placement-bottom');
    const openButton = drawer.nextElementSibling;
    const closeButton = drawer.querySelector('sl-button[type="primary"]');

    openButton.addEventListener('click', () => drawer.show());
    closeButton.addEventListener('click', () => drawer.hide());
  })();
</script>

Contained to an Element

By default, the drawer slides out of its containing block, which is usually the viewport. To make the drawer slide out of its parent element, set this prop and add position: relative to the parent.

<div
  style="position: relative; border: solid 2px var(--sl-color-gray-80); height: 300px; padding: 1rem; margin-bottom: 1rem;"
>
  The drawer will be contained to this box. This content won't shift or be affected in any way when the drawer opens.

  <sl-drawer label="Drawer" contained class="drawer-contained" style="--size: 50%;">
    Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
    <sl-button slot="footer" type="primary">Close</sl-button>
  </sl-drawer>
</div>

<sl-button>Open Drawer</sl-button>

<script>
  (() => {
    const drawer = document.querySelector('.drawer-contained');
    const openButton = drawer.parentElement.nextElementSibling;
    const closeButton = drawer.querySelector('sl-button[type="primary"]');

    openButton.addEventListener('click', () => drawer.show());
    closeButton.addEventListener('click', () => drawer.hide());
  })();
</script>

Custom Size

Use the --size custom property to set the drawer's size. This will be applied to the drawer's width or height depending on its placement.

<sl-drawer label="Drawer" class="drawer-custom-size" style="--size: 50vw;">
  This drawer is always 50% of the viewport.
  <sl-button slot="footer" type="primary">Close</sl-button>
</sl-drawer>

<sl-button>Open Drawer</sl-button>

<script>
  (() => {
    const drawer = document.querySelector('.drawer-custom-size');
    const openButton = drawer.nextElementSibling;
    const closeButton = drawer.querySelector('sl-button[type="primary"]');

    openButton.addEventListener('click', () => drawer.show());
    closeButton.addEventListener('click', () => drawer.hide());
  })();
</script>

Scrolling

By design, a drawer's height will never exceed 100% of its container. As such, drawers will not scroll with the page to ensure the header and footer are always accessible to the user.

<sl-drawer label="Drawer" class="drawer-scrolling">
  <div style="height: 150vh; border: dashed 2px var(--sl-color-gray-80); padding: 0 1rem;">
    <p>Scroll down and give it a try! 👇</p>
  </div>
  <sl-button slot="footer" type="primary">Close</sl-button>
</sl-drawer>

<sl-button>Open Drawer</sl-button>

<script>
  (() => {
    const drawer = document.querySelector('.drawer-scrolling');
    const openButton = drawer.nextElementSibling;
    const closeButton = drawer.querySelector('sl-button[type="primary"]');

    openButton.addEventListener('click', () => drawer.show());
    closeButton.addEventListener('click', () => drawer.hide());
  })();
</script>

Ignoring Clicks on the Overlay

By default, drawers are closed when the user clicks or taps on the overlay. To prevent this behavior, cancel the slOverlayDismiss event.

<sl-drawer label="Drawer" class="drawer-no-overlay-dismiss">
  This drawer will not be closed when you click outside of it.
  <sl-button slot="footer" type="primary">Close</sl-button>
</sl-drawer>

<sl-button>Open Drawer</sl-button>

<script>
  (() => {
    const drawer = document.querySelector('.drawer-no-overlay-dismiss');
    const openButton = drawer.nextElementSibling;
    const closeButton = drawer.querySelector('sl-button[type="primary"]');

    openButton.addEventListener('click', () => drawer.show());
    closeButton.addEventListener('click', () => drawer.hide());

    drawer.addEventListener('slOverlayDismiss', event => event.preventDefault());
  })();
</script>
