storybook-decorator-sitecoreprops
SitecoreProps is a Storybook addon for normalizing nested Sitecore JSS field props.
Why does this exist?
Sitecore JSS does a great job of putting front-end developers in the driver's seat of project development, but it does have a few quirks. One of those is the fields
prop that must be passed to its provided JSS React content components, which expects an object formatted like this:
{
fields: {
heading: {
value: 'Value'
}
}
}
In practice, that means passing props like this:
import { Text } from '@sitecore-jss/sitecore-jss-react';
const CustomComponent = ({fields}) => (
<div className="custom-component">
<Text fields={fields.heading} />
</div>
);
export default CustomComponent;
This structure can create pretty verbose sample data structures in Storybook stories. To combat this, the SitecoreProps decorator will automatically decorate stories to build out the nested value object whenever a fields property is passed to it. That means you can write sample data like this, without worrying about the extra layer of nesting:
{
fields: {
heading: 'Value'
}
}
Installation

npm i --save-dev @degjs/storybook-decorator-sitecoreprops
