How to hide drawer in flutter after changing Scaffold.body value - dart

Question

I am using the method in this question to change the body of a Scaffold in flutter:
Flutter Drawer Widget - change Scaffold.body content
The method described works perfectly. Now I would like just the drawer to automatically close after the users taps on one of the items.
I tried using the Navigator.pop() method, but it pops the entire screen, not just the drawer. It leaves me with a totally black screen.
Any suggestions?

Answer 1

Are you using exactly Navigator.of(context).pop()? I cannot reproduce your problem, can you post a minimal example to reproduce it?
The following code works as expected: the settings button pops away the drawer, while the other don't.
class MyHomePage extends StatefulWidget {
MyHomePage({Key key, this.title}) : super(key: key);
final String title;
#override
_MyHomePageState createState() => new _MyHomePageState();
}
class _MyHomePageState extends State<MyHomePage> {
String text = "Initial Text";
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return new Scaffold(
drawer: new Drawer(
child: new ListView(
children: <Widget>[
new Container(child: new DrawerHeader(child: new Container())),
new Container (
child: new Column(
children: <Widget>[
new ListTile(leading: new Icon(Icons.info),
onTap:(){
setState((){
text = "info pressed";
});
}
),
new ListTile(leading: new Icon(Icons.save),
onTap:(){
setState((){
text = "save pressed";
});
}
),
new ListTile(leading: new Icon(Icons.settings),
onTap:(){
setState((){
text = "settings pressed";
});
Navigator.of(context).pop();
}
),
]
),
)
],
),
),
appBar: new AppBar(title: new Text("Test Page"),),
body: new Center(child: new Text((text)),
));
}
}

Answer 2

create scaffoldKey
close drawer
_scaffoldKey.currentState.openEndDrawer(),
open drawer
scaffoldKey.currentState.openDrawer(),
Example
InkWell(
onTap: ()=> widget.scaffoldKey.currentState.openDrawer(),
child: Icon(
Icons.menu,
size: 38,
color: Color(0xFFFFFFFF),
),
),

If you are using a MaterialApp you need to use Scaffold.of(context).openEndDrawer() that way you do not need to create a GlobalKey.
class Menu extends StatelessWidget {
const Menu({
Key key,
}) : super(key: key);
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return ListView(
padding: EdgeInsets.zero,
children: [
FlatButton(
onPressed: () {
Navigator.of(context).pushNamed('/');
Scaffold.of(context).openEndDrawer();
},
child: ListTile(
leading: Icon(Icons.home),
title: Text('Home'),
),
),
FlatButton(
onPressed: () {
Navigator.of(context).pushNamed('/about');
Scaffold.of(context).openEndDrawer();
},
child: ListTile(
leading: Icon(Icons.question_answer),
title: Text('About'),
),
),
],
);
}
}

Simply:
ListTile(
title: const Text('Item 1'),
onTap: () {
// Update the state of the app
// ...
// Then close the drawer
Navigator.pop(context);
},
),
