Create Navigation Drawer in VBCS (Part1)

 This is a multi-part blog wherein we will create a navigation drawer for WebApplication using VBCS.

As part of this blog, we will create a VBCS application with a hamburger icon in the ui header on whose click the navigation drawer will open or close.

  • Create a sample app with multiple flows

  • Define 2 custom events in testnavapp, these events will then be used by underlying page fragments to open/close navigation drawer and to route page flow based on the selection done.
Note: For newer application these events are created by default hence do this step only if you have an old application where you want to implement navigation drawer.



  • Create/Edit the Header Fragment to add Navigation drawer icon on top.
Note: Header Fragment is created by default in newer applications, if it does not exist feel free to create a new one.

<header role="banner" class="oj-sm-flex-initial vb-web-applayout-header oj-sm-only-hide">
  <div class="oj-flex-bar oj-sm-align-items-center vb-web-applayout-header-content">
    <!-- Navigator toggle button -->
    <div class="oj-flex-bar">
      <oj-button chroming="borderless"
        display="icons">
        <span slot="startIcon" class="oj-ux-ico-menu"></span>
        <span><oj-bind-text value="Custom Navigation Drawer"></oj-bind-text></span>
      </oj-button>
    </div>
    <!-- Company logo and application title only displayed in desktop mode -->
    <div class="oj-flex-bar-middle oj-sm-margin-4x-horizontal oj-sm-align-items-center">
      <h1 class="oj-typography-body-md oj-typography-semi-bold" title="Application Name">My Custom Navigation App
      </h1>
    </div>  
  </div>
</header>
  • Now create a click event on the Navigation drawer button which will then invoke the custom event toggleDrawer.


  • Navigate back to shell page and create an Event listener for the event toggleDrawer.



  • Create below toggleDrawer function in shell page 

  • Call this function from the Action Chain of Custom Event handler for toggleDrawer Event
