How do I close a navigation drawer after an item is selected?

I have implemented a navigation drawer and everything functions properly. The navigation drawer contains a listview and when an item is selected, the main fragment is replaced properly.

This is the onClickListener code:

mDrawerListView.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id) {
        HeaderViewListAdapter headerView = (HeaderViewListAdapter) parent.getAdapter();
        AccountAdapter adapter = (AccountAdapter) headerView.getWrappedAdapter();
        Cursor cursor = adapter.getCursor();

        if(cursor != null && cursor.moveToPosition(position)){
            ((NavigationDrawerCallbacks) getActivity()).onNavigationDrawerItemSelected(cursor.getLong(cursor.getColumnIndex(ID_COLUMN)));
        }
    }
});

And in my activity, the onNavigationDrawerItemSelected method is like this:

@Override
public void onNavigationDrawerItemSelected(long accountId) {
    // update the main content by replacing fragments
    FragmentManager fragmentManager = getSupportFragmentManager();
    fragmentManager.beginTransaction()
            .replace(R.id.mainFragment, AccountDetailFragment.newInstance(accountId))
            .commit();
}

As I said, this functions, but the navigation drawer remains open. It's a hassle for the user to have to select an account from the listview and then have to close the drawer to see the main fragment, so how can I have it close automatically, so that when an item is selected the only visible element is the main fragment (and everything inside of it)?

You need to call the closeDrawer inside the onItemClick, when the Drawer Layout is not null.

    if (mDrawerLayout != null) {
        mDrawerLayout.closeDrawer(mFragmentContainerView);
    }

Call closeDrawer() on the DrawerLayout object with either the Drawer View, or the Drawer's Gravity as an argument.
