How to open Drawer using a custom event / action within a screen

[sujayjaju]

Version

react-native-router-flux v4

Expected behaviour

A way to open the drawer from within a scene

Actual behaviour

Only the navbar button opens the drawer

Steps to reproduce

This is my Router

<Scene key="root" titleStyle={{}} hideNavBar>
    <Scene key="auth">
        <Scene key="login" component={Login} title={ I18n.t('loginTitle') }/>
    </Scene>
    <Scene key="drawer" drawer contentComponent={SideMenu} initial drawerPosition="right" drawerWidth={200} drawerLabel="Hi">
        <Scene key="main">
            <Scene key="menu" component={Menu} title={ I18n.t('menuTitle') }/>
            <Scene key="orders" component={Orders} title={ I18n.t('ordersTitle') }/>
        </Scene>
    </Scene>
</Scene>

I need a custom button within the Menu scene to open the drawer.
I tried:

Actions.refresh({key: "drawer", open: true})

But that does not work since the new DrawerNavigatior does not have "open" as a config option. Docs say the way to open is:

this.props.navigation.navigate('DrawerOpen');

Not sure how to call that?

Try Actions.drawerOpen()

Just Add in root scene a prop drawer={true}

Can anyone tell me how to customize the drawer which is added in root scene
??

@Tanumay92
You can define your own component for the drawer

<Drawer key="app" contentComponent={DrawerContent} drawerWidth={300} >

[Tanumay92]

Can you explain a Bit @sujayjaju

@Tanumay92 read the doc :

contentComponent	React.Component		Component used to render the content of the drawer (e.g. navigation items).

I'm currently facing this problem. Because I have 2 drawers, Actions.drawerOpen() will only open the root drawer. I need to be able to open a specific drawer.

How did you solve this?
