shadcn drawer can we open from right side?

[fitimbytyqi]

@0xalvee I think you could change its default behavior by playing with the tailwind style of DrawerContent.

className={cn(
        "fixed inset-x-0 bottom-0 z-50 mt-24 flex h-auto flex-col rounded-t-[10px] border bg-background",
        className
 
)}

This part to be more exact, you have bottom-0 by default, you might find yourself breaking stuff by changing them.

This is my implementation.

'use client';

import * as React from 'react';
import { Drawer as DrawerPrimitive } from 'vaul';
import { cva } from 'class-variance-authority';

import { cn } from '@/lib/utils';

const DrawerContext = React.createContext<{ direction?: 'right' | 'top' | 'bottom' | 'left' }>({
  direction: 'right',
});

const Drawer = ({
  shouldScaleBackground = true,
  direction = 'right',
  ...props
}: React.ComponentProps<typeof DrawerPrimitive.Root>) => (
  <DrawerContext.Provider value={{ direction }}>
    <DrawerPrimitive.Root
      shouldScaleBackground={shouldScaleBackground}
      direction={direction}
      {...props}
    />
  </DrawerContext.Provider>
);
Drawer.displayName = 'Drawer';

const DrawerTrigger = DrawerPrimitive.Trigger;

const DrawerPortal = DrawerPrimitive.Portal;

const DrawerClose = DrawerPrimitive.Close;

const DrawerOverlay = React.forwardRef<
  React.ElementRef<typeof DrawerPrimitive.Overlay>,
  React.ComponentPropsWithoutRef<typeof DrawerPrimitive.Overlay>
>(({ className, ...props }, ref) => (
  <DrawerPrimitive.Overlay
    ref={ref}
    className={cn('fixed inset-0 z-50 bg-black/80', className)}
    {...props}
  />
));
DrawerOverlay.displayName = DrawerPrimitive.Overlay.displayName;

const drawerContentVariants = cva('fixed z-50 flex h-auto flex-col border bg-background', {
  variants: {
    direction: {
      right: 'ml-24 right-0 rounded-l-[10px] inset-y-0',
      top: 'mb-24 top-0 rounded-b-[10px] inset-x-0',
      bottom: 'mt-24 rounded-t-[10px] bottom-0 inset-x-0',
      left: 'mr-24 left-0 rounded-r-[10px] inset-y-0',
    },
  },
  defaultVariants: {
    direction: 'right',
  },
});

const DrawerContent = React.forwardRef<
  React.ElementRef<typeof DrawerPrimitive.Content>,
  React.ComponentPropsWithoutRef<typeof DrawerPrimitive.Content>
>(({ className, children, ...props }, ref) => {
  const { direction } = React.useContext(DrawerContext);

  return (
    <DrawerPortal>
      <DrawerOverlay />
      <DrawerPrimitive.Content
        ref={ref}
        className={cn(drawerContentVariants({ direction, className }))}
        {...props}
      >
        {/* <div className='mx-auto mt-4 h-2 w-[100px] rounded-full bg-muted' /> */}
        {children}
      </DrawerPrimitive.Content>
    </DrawerPortal>
  );
});
DrawerContent.displayName = 'DrawerContent';

const DrawerHeader = ({ className, ...props }: React.HTMLAttributes<HTMLDivElement>) => (
  <div className={cn('grid gap-1.5 p-4 text-center sm:text-left', className)} {...props} />
);
DrawerHeader.displayName = 'DrawerHeader';

const DrawerFooter = ({ className, ...props }: React.HTMLAttributes<HTMLDivElement>) => (
  <div className={cn('mt-auto flex flex-col gap-2 p-4', className)} {...props} />
);
DrawerFooter.displayName = 'DrawerFooter';

const DrawerTitle = React.forwardRef<
  React.ElementRef<typeof DrawerPrimitive.Title>,
  React.ComponentPropsWithoutRef<typeof DrawerPrimitive.Title>
>(({ className, ...props }, ref) => (
  <DrawerPrimitive.Title
    ref={ref}
    className={cn('text-lg font-semibold leading-none tracking-tight', className)}
    {...props}
  />
));
DrawerTitle.displayName = DrawerPrimitive.Title.displayName;

const DrawerDescription = React.forwardRef<
  React.ElementRef<typeof DrawerPrimitive.Description>,
  React.ComponentPropsWithoutRef<typeof DrawerPrimitive.Description>
>(({ className, ...props }, ref) => (
  <DrawerPrimitive.Description
    ref={ref}
    className={cn('text-sm text-muted-foreground', className)}
    {...props}
  />
));
DrawerDescription.displayName = DrawerPrimitive.Description.displayName;

export {
  Drawer,
  DrawerPortal,
  DrawerOverlay,
  DrawerTrigger,
  DrawerClose,
  DrawerContent,
  DrawerHeader,
  DrawerFooter,
  DrawerTitle,
  DrawerDescription,
};

Thank you so much brother❤️

[beskrovnyi-dmitry]

Thanks a lot

[scrabase]

good job

[aaron-mota]

Thank you 🙏

[dillahCodes]

thanks bro

[ephraimduncan]

You can use the sheet component in place of the drawer. It opens on the right

https://ui.shadcn.com/docs/components/sheet

[alexesr]

This is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you so much

[mmkusma]

Thank you!

[lokeshvasnik]

What a great thread thanks, buddy.

[triplecasquette]

By the way i just realized that drawer was built on top of Vaul by emilkowalski_. as said in the doc.

So I went to the Vaul doc and saw that : Vaul doc Side props

So you can just :

const Drawer = ({
  shouldScaleBackground = true,
  direction = "right",
  ...props
}:

:)

Hope it will help someone

[Da3az]

• shadcn drawer use vaul and it is mentioned on their docs , so you can directly import vaul and use their components , example mentioned on their docs

https://vaul.emilkowal.ski/default#side-drawer

• Or if for some reasons you want to use the Drawer imported from ui/drawer , it is not that hard to achieve it , you can do the following without editing the ui/drawer component themselves

"use client"

import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button"
import {
    Drawer,
    DrawerClose,
    DrawerContent,
    DrawerDescription,
    DrawerFooter,
    DrawerHeader,
    DrawerTitle,
    DrawerTrigger
} from "@/components/ui/drawer"


export function SessionsDrawer() {


    return (
        <Drawer
            //  =====> Add direction  
            direction="right"
        >
            <DrawerTrigger asChild>
                <Button variant="outline">Open Drawer</Button>
            </DrawerTrigger>

            <DrawerContent
                // =======>  Edit drawer className 
                className="  left-auto  right-4 top-2 bottom-2 fixed z-50  outline-none w-[310px] flex  bg-transparent border-none mt-0 "
            >
               {/* =====> Edit DrawerContent first child className  */}
                <div className="bg-zinc-50 h-full w-full grow p-5 flex flex-col rounded-[16px]">
                    <DrawerHeader>
                        <DrawerTitle>Move Goal</DrawerTitle>
                        <DrawerDescription>Set your daily activity goal.</DrawerDescription>
                    </DrawerHeader>
                    <DrawerFooter>
                        <Button>Submit</Button>
                        <DrawerClose asChild>
                            <Button variant="outline">Cancel</Button>
                        </DrawerClose>
                    </DrawerFooter>
                </div>
            </DrawerContent>
        </Drawer>
    )
}

[mohit4bug]

Here you go!

<Drawer direction="right">
  <DrawerTrigger>Open</DrawerTrigger>
  <DrawerContent className="bottom-2 left-auto right-2 top-2 mt-0 w-[310px] overflow-hidden rounded-[10px]">
    <DrawerHeader>
      <DrawerTitle>Are you absolutely sure?</DrawerTitle>
      <DrawerDescription>This action cannot be undone.</DrawerDescription>
    </DrawerHeader>
    <DrawerFooter>
      <Button>Submit</Button>
      <DrawerClose>
        <Button variant="outline">Cancel</Button>
      </DrawerClose>
    </DrawerFooter>
  </DrawerContent>
</Drawer>

ShadCN's Drawer component supports a side prop, allowing you to control where it opens from. By default, it opens from the bottom, but you can change it to right like this:

import { Drawer, DrawerTrigger, DrawerContent } from "@/components/ui/drawer";

export function RightSideDrawer() {
  return (
    <Drawer>
      <DrawerTrigger className="px-4 py-2 bg-blue-500 text-white rounded">
        Open Drawer
      </DrawerTrigger>
      <DrawerContent side="right" className="w-[300px]">
        <div className="p-4">
          <h2 className="text-lg font-bold">Right Side Drawer</h2>
          <p>This drawer opens from the right.</p>
        </div>
      </DrawerContent>
    </Drawer>
  );
}

✅ Set side="right" in
✅ Adjust the width using w-[300px] (customize as needed)

Modified drawer.tsx if anyone is still searching for it. "direction" is replaced by "position" and supports left, top, right, bottom positions. 😃

'use client';

import * as React from 'react';
import { Drawer as DrawerPrimitive } from 'vaul';
import { cn } from '@/lib/utils';

const DrawerPositionContext = React.createContext<
  'left' | 'top' | 'right' | 'bottom'
>('bottom');

const Drawer = ({
  shouldScaleBackground = true,
  position = 'bottom',
  direction,
  children,
  ...props
}: React.ComponentProps<typeof DrawerPrimitive.Root> & {
  /**
   * Which edge of the viewport the drawer should slide in from.
   *
   * @remarks
   * - `'left'` — slides in from the left side
   * - `'top'` — slides down from the top

Coming to this a bit late, but is this not a Sheet?
