Storybook Addon Preview
Storybook Addon Preview can show user selected controls(args)) or knobs in various framework code in Storybook
Getting Started
- Storybook 6 or newer is required.
- If you use Storybook 5, use version 1.x.
npm i storybook-addon-preview --dev
.storybook/main.js
module.exports = {
addons: [
"storybook-addon-preview/register"
],
};
Now, write your stories with preview.
How to use with controls(args)
import { previewTemplate, DEFAULT_VANILLA_CODESANDBOX } from "storybook-addon-preview";
// CSF https://storybook.js.org/docs/react/api/csf
export default {
title: "Example",
}
export const example = e => {
e.opt1;
e.num1;
return ....;
}
example.parameters = {
preview: [
{
tab: "Vanilla",
template: previewTemplate`
const inst = new Instance({
opt1: ${"opt1"},
num1: ${"num1"},
});
`,
language: "ts",
copy: true,
codesandbox: DEFAULT_VANILLA_CODESANDBOX(["@egjs/infinitegrid"]),
},
],
};
example.args = {
opt1: false,
num1: 0,
};
example.argTypes = {
opt1: {
control: { type: "boolean" },
defaultValue: false,
},
num1: {
control: { type: "number" },
defaultValue: 0,
},
};
How to use with knobs (deprecated)
import { withPreview, previewTemplate, DEFAULT_VANILLA_CODESANDBOX } from "storybook-addon-preview";
import { withKnobs, boolean, number } from "@storybook/addon-knobs";
const stories = storiesOf("Example", module);
stories.addDecorator(withKnobs).addDecorator(withPreview);
stories.add("example", e => {
const opt1Value = boolean("opt1", false);
const num1Value = number("num1", 0);
return ....;
}, {
preview: [
{
tab: "Vanilla",
template: previewTemplate`
const inst = new Instance({
opt1: ${"opt1"},
num1: ${"num1"},
});
`,
language: "ts",
copy: true,
codesandbox: DEFAULT_VANILLA_CODESANDBOX(["@egjs/infinitegrid"]),
},
]
});
// CSF https://storybook.js.org/docs/react/api/csf
export default {
title: "Example",
decorators: [withKnobs, withPreview],
parameters: {
preview: [
{
tab: "Vanilla",
template: previewTemplate`
const inst = new Instance({
opt1: ${"opt1"},
num1: ${"num1"},
});
`,
language: "ts",
copy: true,
codesandbox: DEFAULT_VANILLA_CODESANDBOX(["@egjs/infinitegrid"]),
},
],
},
}
export const example = e => {
const opt1Value = boolean("opt1", false);
const num1Value = number("num1", 0);
return ....;
}

*/
format?: string | boolean;
}
Formatting
Storybook basically uses the standalone version of prettier
and parser-html
.
So PreviewParameter format only supports "html".
If you use a custom formatter, be careful as the file size may increase.
See: https://prettier.io/docs/en/browser.html
// .storybook/manager.js
import { addons } from "@storybook/addons";
import * as prettier from "prettier/standalone";
import * as htmlParser from "prettier/parser-html";
import * as babelParser from "prettier/parser-babel";
import * as postCSSParser from "prettier/parser-postcss";
addons.setConfig({
previewFormatter: (format, code) => {
if (format === "tsx") {
return prettier.format(code, {
parser: "babel-ts",
plugins: [
htmlParser,
babelParser,
postCSSParser,
],
});
} else if (format === "vue") {
return prettier.format(code, {
parser: "vue",
plugins: [
htmlParser,
babelParser,
postCSSParser,
],
});
}
return code;
},
});
// stories.js
export const Story = {
parameters: {
preview: [
{
tab: "Vanilla",
template: `
const inst = new Instance({
opt1: "opt1",
num1: "num1",
});
`,
language: "ts",
format: "tsx",
},
],
}
}
Template
- If the template is code that does not use knobs, you can just write it as
string
type.
{
template: `
const inst = new Instance({
opt1: 1,
num1: 1,
});
`,
}
- If you simply want to express knobs as they are, use
previewTemplate
function
import { previewTemplate } from "storybook-addon-preview";
{
args: {
args1: true,
},
template: previewTemplate`
const inst = new Instance({
opt1: ${"opt1"},
num1: ${"num1"},
args1: ${"args1"},
});
`,
}
- Use functions if you want to work with variables
{
args: {
args1: true,
},
template: (props, globals) => `
const inst = new Instance({
opt1: ${props.opt1},
num1: ${props.num1},
args1: ${props.args1},
});
`,
}
Highlight
- If you want to highlight your code, add a
[highlight]
comment.
[
{
template: previewTemplate`
const inst = new Instance({
/* [highlight] highlight opt1 */
opt1: ${"opt1"},
num1: ${"num1"},
});
`,
language: "js",
},
{
template: previewTemplate`
<!-- [highlight] highlight html -->
<div style="width: ${"width"}px;"></div>
`,
language: "html",
},
]
- If you want to highlight your code area, add the
[highlight-start]
and[highlight-end]
comments.
[
{
template: previewTemplate`
const inst = new Instance({
/* [highlight-start] highlight options */
opt1: ${"opt1"},
num1: ${"num1"},
/* [highlight-end] */
});
`,
},
{
template: previewTemplate`
<!-- [highlight-start] highlight html -->
<div style="width: ${"width"}px;"></div>
<!-- [highlight-end] -->
`,
language: "html",
},
]
Props
Easily use options or props or use props template when you have many options
export interface PropsOptions {
indent?: number;
wrap?: string;
prefix?: string;
}
- DEFAULT_PROPS_TEMPLATE(names: string[], options: PropsOptions)
import { previewTemplate, DEFAULT_PROPS_TEMPLATE } from "storybook-addon-preview";
{
template: previewTemplate`
/* [highlight] You can see opt1, num1 options. */
const inst = new Instance({
${DEFAULT_PROPS_TEMPLATE(["opt1", "num1"], { indent: 4 })}
});
`,
}
- JSX_PROPS_TEMPLATE(names: string[], options: PropsOptions)
import { previewTemplate, JSX_PROPS_TEMPLATE } from "storybook-addon-preview";
{
template: previewTemplate`
/* [highlight] You can see opt1, num1 options. */
<Instance
${JSX_PROPS_TEMPLATE(["opt1", "num1"], { indent: 4 })}
/>
`,
language: "jsx",
}
- ANGULAR_PROPS_TEMPLATE(names: string[], options: PropsOptions)
import { previewTemplate, ANGULAR_PROPS_TEMPLATE } from "storybook-addon-preview";
{
template: previewTemplate`
/* [highlight] You can see opt1, num1 options. */
<ngx-instance
${ANGULAR_PROPS_TEMPLATE(["opt1", "num1"], { indent: 4 })}
></ngx-instance>
`,
language: "html",
}
- VUE_PROPS_TEMPLATE(names: string[], options: PropsOptions)
import { previewTemplate, VUE_PROPS_TEMPLATE } from "storybook-addon-preview";
{
template: previewTemplate`
/* [highlight] You can see opt1, num1 options. */
<vue-instance
${VUE_PROPS_TEMPLATE(["opt1", "num1"], { indent: 4 })}
></vue-instance>
`,
language: "html",
}
- LIT_PROPS_TEMPLATE(names: string[], options: PropsOptions)
import { previewTemplate, LIT_PROPS_TEMPLATE } from "storybook-addon-preview";
{
template: previewTemplate`
/* [highlight] You can see opt1, num1 options. */
html${"`"}<lit-instance
${LIT_PROPS_TEMPLATE(["opt1", "num1"], { indent: 4 })}
></lit-instance>${"`"};
`,
language: "js",
}
CodeSandBox
Link the code you used to the code sandbox. There is a dependency and initial settings file for linking code sandboxes. The frameworks we support are react, angular, svelte, lit, preact, and vue.
const CodeSandboxValue = {
// https://github.com/codesandbox/codesandbox-importers/blob/master/packages/import-utils/src/create-sandbox/templates.ts#L63
template: "vue-cli",
files: {
"src/main.js": `
import Vue from "vue";
import App from "./App.vue";
Vue.config.productionTip = false;
new Vue({
render: h => h(App)
}).$mount("#app");
`,
"src/App.vue": {
tab: "Vue",
},
},
dependencies: {
"vue": "^2.6.0",
},
userDependencies: ["@egjs/vue-infinitegrid@^3"],
});
You can use the default codesandbox presets.
- External modules except framework modules used in code
// DEFAULT_(VANILLA)_CODESANDBOX
// DEFAULT_(REACT)_CODESANDBOX
// DEFAULT_(ANGULAR)_CODESANDBOX
type DEFAULT_FRAMEWORK_CODESANDBOX: CodeSandboxTemplate = (userDependencies?: string[], files?: FilesParam) => CodeSandboxValue;
- The codesandbox presets provided in the preview are vanilla, react, angular, vue, preact, lit and svelte.
Name | Default Tab Names | Code |
---|---|---|
DEFAULT_VANILLAJS_CODESANDBOX(JS) | HTML, VANILLA, CSS(optional) | View Code |
DEFAULT_VANILLA_CODESANDBOX(TS) | HTML, VANILLA, CSS(optional) | View Code |
DEFAULT_REACT_CODESANDBOX(TS) | React, CSS(optional) | View Code |
DEFAULT_REACTJS_CODESANDBOX(TS) | ReactJS, CSS(optional) | View Code |
DEFAULT_ANGULAR_CODESANDBOX | Angular(html, component, module), CSS(optional) | View Code |
DEFAULT_VUE_CODESANDBOX | Vue | View Code |
DEFAULT_VUE3_CODESANDBOX | Vue3 | View Code |
DEFAULT_SVELTE_CODESANDBOX | Svelte | View Code |
DEFAULT_LIT_CODESANDBOX | Lit, CSS(optional) | View Code |
The following explains how to use the default codesandbox preset.

Make Custom CodeSandbox
-
template
is based on this logic. -
dependencies
,devDependencies
,scripts
are based onpackage.json
'sdependencies
,devDependencies
,scripts
-
userDependencies
are dependencies of type array. ([vue@^2.6.0
]) -
files
has string, CodeFileTab(object), and null types.- CodeFileTab: Returns the preview tab as a string value.
- null: Delete the existing file.
CodeSandbox supports various templates. To use the template, you need to define the basic files yourself. Please refer to the template in the CodeSandbox.
export const DEFAULT_VUE_CODESANDBOX: CodeSandboxTemplate = (userDependencies = [], files = {}) => {
return {
template: "vue-cli",
files: {
"src/main.js": `
import Vue from "vue";
import App from "./App.vue";
Vue.config.productionTip = false;
new Vue({
render: h => h(App)
}).$mount("#app");
`,
"src/App.vue": {
tab: "Vue",
},
...files,
},
dependencies: {
"vue": "^2.6.0",
},
userDependencies,
};
};
