API Reference

Root

Contains all parts of a dialog. Use shouldScaleBackground to enable background scaling, it requires an element with [vaul-drawer-wrapper] data attribute to scale its background. Can be controlled with the value and onOpenChange props. Can be opened by default via defaultOpen prop.

Additional props:

closeThreshold: Number between 0 and 1 that determines when the drawer should be closed. Example: threshold of 0.5 would close the drawer if the user swiped for 50% of the height of the drawer or more.

snapPoints: Array of numbers from 0 to 100 that corresponds to % of the screen a given snap point should take up. Should go from least visible. Example [0.2, 0.5, 0.8]. You can also use px values, which doesn't take screen height into account.
