How to get currentDestination using DestinationsNavigator ?

[yoobi]

Hello !

My current use case is something like this, navigating to another destination and removing the current one from the backstack, I don't see any currentDestination using DestinationsNavigator.

navigator.navigate(NextScreenDestination) {
    popUpTo(currentDestination) {
        inclusive = true
    }
}

Based on what I came up with as a solution, I guess it should be something like this. You should directly pass the destination.

navigator.navigate(NextScreenDestination) {
popUpTo(CurrentScreenDestination) {
inclusive = true
}
}

Yes that could be a solution, this composable is used by many destination, it would require to add a new parameter currentDestination

As DestinationsNavigator is meant to be a wrapper around NavController, it could be nice to have currentDestination in it as well

Previously I used to pull it off like this:

private fun executeNavigation(
navController: NavHostController,
direction: Direction?,
addToBackstack: Boolean?
) {
direction?.let { dir ->
navController.navigate(dir) {
if (addToBackstack != true) {
this.popUpTo(navController.currentBackStackEntry?.destination?.route.toString()) {
inclusive = true
}
}
}
}
}

However, it is no longer available in the v2.

Oh and btw, I just submitted a new issue, could you please revise it and tell me if you have met the problem as well?
