Materialize.css Swipe right to open menu

I know Materialize.css has an option to swipe left to dismiss the open sidemenu, but is it possible to open the menu by swiping right as found in most android phones.

I have a meteor.js implementation for a android app and would want to know if such a feature offered out of the box.

Yes, it's possible right out of the box:

Just initialize the plugin like this:

// Initialize collapse button
$(".button-collapse").sideNav();

  <a href="#" data-activates="slide-out" class="button-collapse"><i class="mdi-navigation-menu"></i></a>
</nav>

For testing, just enable emulation in the chrome developer tools, reload the page, and swipe in from the edge.
