Props

Props of the Drawer component are also available.

Name	Type	Default	Description
onClose^*	func		Callback fired when the component requests to be closed. Signature: `function(event: object) => void` event: The event source of the callback.
onOpen^*	func		Callback fired when the component requests to be opened. Signature: `function(event: object) => void` event: The event source of the callback.
allowSwipeInChildren	bool \| func	false	If set to true, the swipe event will open the drawer even if the user begins the swipe on one of the drawer's children. This can be useful in scenarios where the drawer is partially visible. You can customize it further with a callback that determines which children the user can drag over to open the drawer (for example, to ignore other elements that handle touch move events, like sliders).
children	node		The content of the component.
disableBackdropTransition	bool	false	Disable the backdrop transition. This can improve the FPS on low-end devices.
disableDiscovery	bool	false	If `true`, touching the screen near the edge of the drawer will not slide in the drawer a bit to promote accidental discovery of the swipe gesture.
disableSwipeToOpen	bool	typeof navigator !== 'undefined' && /iPad\|iPhone\|iPod/.test(navigator.userAgent)	If `true`, swipe to open is disabled. This is useful in browsers where swiping triggers navigation actions. Swipe to open is disabled on iOS browsers by default.
hysteresis	number	0.52	Affects how far the drawer must be opened/closed to change its state. Specified as percent (0-1) of the width of the drawer
minFlingVelocity	number	450	Defines, from which (average) velocity on, the swipe is defined as complete although hysteresis isn't reached. Good threshold is between 250 - 1000 px/s
open	bool	false	If `true`, the component is shown.
SwipeAreaProps	object		The element is used to intercept the touch events on the edge.
swipeAreaWidth	number	20	The width of the left most (or right most) area in `px` that the drawer can be swiped open from.
transitionDuration	number \| { appear?: number, enter?: number, exit?: number }	{ enter: theme.transitions.duration.enteringScreen, exit: theme.transitions.duration.leavingScreen, }	The duration for the transition, in milliseconds. You may specify a single timeout for all transitions, or individually with an object.

The ref is forwarded to the root element.

Inheritance

While not explicitly documented above, the props of the Drawer component are also available on SwipeableDrawer. You can take advantage of this to target nested components.
