Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

storybook-formik

A Storybook Addon and Decorator to wrap Formik Fields and track their state in a Panel.

example screenshot

You can see the example stories in action here.

Thanks to @jaredpalmer for giving us the amazing formik library and making forms great again.

Migration to BBB Tech

Note, this package has been migrated to the org: BBB Tech. The only real difference this means is that the package needs to be installed with a new command, scoped by the org's slug (i.e. npm i --save-dev @bbbtech/storybook-formik) and to update the path when registering the package in your main.js.

It also means that all future versions will be released under the new package, so please migrate your dependency if you want to get future versions.

Install

npm install --save-dev @bbbtech/storybook-formik

Then register the addon in .storybook/main.js

module.exports = {
  stories: ['../stories/**/*.stories.tsx'],
  addons: ['@bbbtech/storybook-formik/register'],
};

Usage

Suppose you split your forms into smaller, re-usable components and these 'subforms' rely on formik context, each of these sub-forms may be used to build up a larger form, but you still want to test and run them independently. You can use the withFormik decorator so that we can wrap the subform in a Formik component, which will pass down the context as normal.

Given a simple subform:

import React from 'react';
import { Field } from 'formik';

const PersonalInfoSubform = () => (
  <div>
    <Field name="forename" type="input" />
    <Field name="surname" type="input" />
  </div>
);

export default PersonalInfoSubform;

You add the withFormik decorator to your stories and can pass any Formik props as a parameter to the individual story.

export const personalInfoSubform = () => (
  <>
    <p>
      The decorator can wrap Components that include Fields (or anything else
      expecting Formik context). This allows us to better componentise our
      larger forms.
    </p>
    <PersonalInfoSubForm />
  </>
);
personalInfoSubform.decorators = [withFormik];
// can use the DecoratorParams type and pass a type for type-safety of initialValues
const personalInfoParams: DecoratorParams<PersonalInfo> = {
  formik: {
    initialValues: personalInfoInitialValues,
    validationSchema: personalInfoValidationSchema,
  },
};
personalInfoSubform.parameters = personalInfoParams;

This gives you the benefit of rendering formik Fields that are expecting formik context, but also to track the key formik state within the storybook panel below.

See the example stories for further examples

Legacy story format

Example with the storiesOf syntax.

import { storiesOf } from '@storybook/react';
import withFormik from '@bbbtech/storybook-formik';

import PersonalInfoSubform from '<your_component_path>/PersonalInfoSubform';

storiesOf('Example', module)
  .addDecorator(withFormik)
  .add('default', () => <PersonalInfoSubform />, {
    formik: {
      initialValues: {
        forename: 'John',
        surname: 'Johnerson',
      },
    },
  });

Arguments

You can pass any Formik component props (initialValues, validationSchema, validateOnBlur, etc) as arguments to a story. These props must be passed under the formik parameter key.

If no initial values are supplied, { enableReinitialize: true, initialValues: StoryContext.args || {} } will be used.

export const myTextInput = () => (
  <MyTextInput
    name="formikTweet"
    label="Describe formik in 80 characters"
    placeholder="I love formik because..."
  />
);
myTextInput.parameters = {
  formik: {
    initialValues: {
      formikTweet: '',
    },
    validationSchema: someSchema,
    onSubmit: v => console.log('I want to log these... ', v),
  },
};

formik.castValues with formik.validationSchema

If a validationSchema is provided in the formik config and { castValues: true }, then validationSchema.cast(initialValues || StoryContext.args || {}) will be called and the result passed in as initialValues.

This is useful if the form fields require a certain format to their values or when automatically converting StoryContext.args into a valid set of initialValues.

Using with Controls

If using @storybook/addon-essentials and StoryContext.args, withFormik will syncronize the form values with the storybook controls.

export const myTextInput = () => (
  <MyTextInput
    name="formikTweet"
    label="Describe formik in 80 characters"
    placeholder="I love formik because..."
  />
);
myTextInput.args = {
  formikTweet: '',
};
myTextInput.parameters = {
  formik: {
    validationSchema: someSchema,
    onSubmit: v => console.log('I want to log these... ', v),
  },
};

Mature Examples

In time, I will add more mature examples that show the usefulness of the subforms pattern on a larger scale. If anyone has any good examples then please do submit them.

Development

You can test changes by building the package locally. The flow would be something like this:

  • Make changes to addon
  • npm run build:watch - builds the dist bundle locally in watch mode
  • npm run storybook - runs the package storybook with the example forms, preview changes here
  • npm run test - run unit tests

Releasing a new version

Deployment is pretty basic/simple right now, all you need to do is: npm version, and specify a new version, this will kick off relevant lifecycle scripts defined in the package.json (including npm publish in the postversion script)
