Smart knobs addon for Storybook

This Storybook plugin uses @storybook/addon-knobs but creates the knobs automatically based on PropTypes and Flow.

Installation:

npm i storybook-addon-smart-knobs --save-dev

Usage:

import React, { PropTypes } from 'react'
import { storiesOf } from '@storybook/react'
import { withKnobs } from '@storybook/addon-knobs'
import { withSmartKnobs } from 'storybook-addon-smart-knobs'

const Button = ({ children, onClick }) => (
  <button onClick={ onClick }>{ children }</button>
)

Button.propTypes = {
  children: PropTypes.node,
  onClick: PropTypes.func
}

storiesOf('Button')
  .addDecorator(withSmartKnobs)
  .addDecorator(withKnobs)
  .add('simple', () => <Button>Smart knobed button</Button>)

Configuration:

This plugin has a peer dependency on babel-plugin-react-docgen . As a result, babel-plugin-react-docgen needs to be added to your Storybook Babel configuration.

For a standard Storybook configuration, add react-docgen to your plugins in an appropriate .babelrc file.

• README | babel-plugin-react-docgen
• Custom Babel Config | Storybook.

If you have created a webpack.config.js file for Storybook, you may need to configure the plugin in there.

module.exports = (baseConfig, env, defaultConfig) => {
  defaultConfig.module.rules[0].use[0].options.plugins = [
    require.resolve('babel-plugin-react-docgen'),
  ]

  return defaultConfig
}
