How to create Top navigation bar in Android TV using Leanback library - android

Custom Navigation Drawer like Gmail and YouTube

I would like to create my own Navigation Drawer
using the current Material Design for the Navigation Drawer.
A good example of this implementation is the YouTube app.
In the App the Navigation Drawer overlaps the Action bar and is not below the action bar like in previous implementations.
I've tried following some example from other people's tutorials but they fall short of what I want. I have included some of the implementations that I have tried. I do not want to use a Library,
I want to implement it . Is there currently a tutorial that applies the Material Design Patterns properly.

For supporting from android 2.1 you have to use Support Library.

The recommended way is using Android-styled component: Navigation Drawer. It appears over content and below ActionBar.
