Scaffold Drawer to showModalBottomSheet - flutter

Question

At the homescreen of myApp() I have a stateless widget, it contains a MaterialApp and a Scaffold. Scaffold have a property of drawer and I passed I created a drawer, and one of the item in my drawer needs to open the showModalBottomSheet while closing the drawer. How can I achieve this? I've tried passing the context itself, and as globalKey.currentContext (after GlobalKey<ScaffoldState> globalKey = GlobalKey();) but the drawer sometimes closes, other time gives me a NoMethodFoundException (or something like that)
In short, how to have a Scaffold drawer that have one of the item, when tapped closes the drawer and showModalBottomSheet?
Current code:
class Timeline extends StatelessWidget {
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
GlobalKey<ScaffoldState> homeScaffoldKey = GlobalKey();
return MaterialApp(
title: "Test",
theme: ThemeData(
appBarTheme: AppBarTheme(iconTheme: IconThemeData(color: Colors.black)),
),
home: Scaffold(
key: homeScaffoldKey,
drawer: showDrawer(homeScaffoldKey.currentContext),
backgroundColor: Colors.grey[100],
body: Stack(
children: <Widget>[
HomePageView(),
AppBar(
elevation: 0,
backgroundColor: Colors.transparent,
),
],
),
),
);
}
}
Drawer showDrawer(BuildContext context) {
void showCalendarsModalBottom() {
showModalBottomSheet(
context: context,
builder: (BuildContext builder) {
return ListView.builder(
itemCount: repo.calendars.length,
itemBuilder: (builder, index) {
return StatefulBuilder(
builder: (builder, StateSetter setState) => ListTile(
leading: Row(
mainAxisSize: MainAxisSize.min,
children: <Widget>[
Checkbox(
value: repo.getIsEnabledCal(repo.getCal(index)),
onChanged: (value) {
setState(() {
repo.toggleCalendar(repo.getCal(index));
});
},
),
Container(
height: 14,
width: 14,
margin: EdgeInsets.only(left: 2, right: 6),
decoration: BoxDecoration(
color: Colors.redAccent,
shape: BoxShape.circle,
),
),
Text(
repo.getCal(index).name,
style: TextStyle(
fontSize: 16,
),
),
],
),
onTap: () {
setState(() {
repo.toggleCalendar(repo.getCal(index));
});
},
),
);
},
);
},
);
}
return Drawer(
child: ListView(
children: <Widget>[
DrawerHeader(
child: Align(
child: Text('Timeline', textScaleFactor: 2),
alignment: Alignment.bottomLeft,
),
),
ListTile(
title: Text('Dark Mode'),
onTap: () => Navigator.pop(context),
),
ListTile(
title: Text('Calenders'),
onTap: () {
Navigator.pop(context);
showCalendarsModalBottom();
},
)
],
),
);
}

Updated working code based on your code snippet:
You'll need to have statefulwidget that will help to pass the context from drawer to bottomsheet and pass the context as an argument in showCalendarModalBottomSheet() method.
void main() {
runApp(new MaterialApp(home: Timeline(), debugShowCheckedModeBanner: false));
}
class Timeline extends StatelessWidget {
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return MaterialApp(
title: "Test",
theme: ThemeData(
appBarTheme: AppBarTheme(iconTheme: IconThemeData(color: Colors.black)),
),
home: MyHomePage()
);
}
}
class MyHomePage extends StatefulWidget {
#override
_MyHomePageState createState() => _MyHomePageState();
}
class _MyHomePageState extends State<MyHomePage> {
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Scaffold(
drawer: AppDrawer(),
backgroundColor: Colors.grey[100],
body: Stack(
children: <Widget>[
//HomePageView(),
AppBar(
elevation: 0,
backgroundColor: Colors.transparent,
)
],
)
);
}
Widget AppDrawer() {
return Drawer(
child: ListView(
children: <Widget>[
DrawerHeader(
child: Align(
child: Text('Timeline', textScaleFactor: 2),
alignment: Alignment.bottomLeft,
),
),
ListTile(
title: Text('Dark Mode'),
onTap: () => Navigator.pop(context),
),
ListTile(
title: Text('Calenders'),
onTap: () {
Navigator.of(context).pop();
showCalendarsModalBottom(context);
},
)
],
),
);
}
Future<Null> showCalendarsModalBottom(context) {
return showModalBottomSheet(context: context, builder: (context) => Container(
color: Colors.red,
// your code here
));
}
}
And the output is: When app drawer menu Calendar is tapped, it closes and opens the bottomsheet seamlessly. If you tap on app drawer again and repeat steps, you see smooth transition between drawer and bottomsheet. Hope this answers your question.
