NappDrawer Alloy Widget

This is a widget for the Alloy MVC framework of Appcelerator's Titanium platform.

It wraps the NappDrawer module by Mads Møller, which provides a sliding side menu as introduced by Facebook.

Usage

1. Install the NappDrawer module for Android and/or iOS via gitTio:

   gittio install dk.napp.drawer -g -p [ios|android]

2. Install this widget via gitTio:

   gittio install nl.fokkezb.drawer

3. In your app/views/index.xml use it like this:

        <Window module="xp.ui" role="leftWindow">
            <Label>I am left</Label>
        </Window>

        <NavigationWindow platform="ios" role="centerWindow">
            <Window>
                <LeftNavButton>
                    <Button onClick="toggle">Left</Button>
                </LeftNavButton>
                <Label>I am center</Label>
                <RightNavButton>
                    <Button onClick="toggle">Right</Button>
                </RightNavButton>
            </Window>
        </NavigationWindow>
        <View platform="android" role="centerWindow">
            <Label>I am center</Label>
        </View>

        <Window module="xp.ui" role="rightWindow">
            <Label>I am right</Label>
        </Window>

    </Widget>
</Alloy>
```

**NOTE**: You can use `<Require>` or `<Widget>` within the widget, just make sure you set the `role` attribute on the view of the required view and not on the require-tag itself.

4. In your app/styles/index.tss use it like this:

   "#drawer": {
   	openDrawerGestureMode: "OPEN_MODE_ALL",
   	closeDrawerGestureMode: "CLOSE_MODE_MARGIN",
   	leftDrawerWidth: 200
   }
   "Window": {
   	backgroundColor: 'white'
   }
   

   Any NappDrawer constants can be passed as strings.

5. In your app/controlers/index.js use it like this:

   $.drawer.open();
   
   function toggle(e) {
   	var fn = 'toggle' + e.source.title + 'Window';
   	$.drawer[fn]();
   }
   

   Any NappDrawer property or method can be get, set or called via the widget, but you can also access the module and instance directly via $.drawer.module and $.drawer.instance.

Android

For Android, NappDrawer requires to receive views instead of windows. You can use the platform attribute to add conditional elements like the examples does for the centerView. An easier way to do this is to add a module="xp.ui" attribute to the <Window> elements and have a file in app/lib/xp.ui.js which has:

exports.createWindow = function(args) {
	return Ti.UI[OS_IOS ? 'createWindow' : 'createView'](args);
};

open/close Left/Right Window

For your convenience, the widget exposes 4 additional methods to ONLY open or close either the left or right window. The NappDrawer module only provides toggle Left/Right Window and is Left/Right WindowOpen methods, which of course can be combined to get the same result.
