@nx/storybook:configuration

Add Storybook configuration to a UI library or an application.

This is a framework-agnostic generator for setting up Storybook configuration for a project.

nx g @nx/storybook:configuration
Nx 15 and lower use @nrwl/ instead of @nx/

Starting Nx 16, Nx does not support Storybook v6 any more. So, Nx will configure your project to use Storybook v7. If you are not on Storybook 7 yet, please migrate. You can read more about how to migrate to Storybook 7 in our Storybook 7 migration generator guide.

When running this generator, you will be prompted to provide the following:

  • The name of the project you want to generate the configuration for.
  • The uiFramework you want to use. Supported values are:
    • @storybook/angular
    • @storybook/html-webpack5
    • @storybook/nextjs
    • @storybook/preact-webpack5
    • @storybook/react-webpack5
    • @storybook/react-vite
    • @storybook/server-webpack5
    • @storybook/svelte-webpack5
    • @storybook/svelte-vite
    • @storybook/sveltekit
    • @storybook/vue-webpack5
    • @storybook/vue-vite
    • @storybook/vue3-webpack5
    • @storybook/vue3-vite
    • @storybook/web-components-webpack5
    • @storybook/web-components-vite
  • Whether you want to configureCypress. If you choose yes, a Cypress e2e app will be created (or configured) to run against the project's Storybook instance.
  • Whether you want to configureTestRunner. If you choose yes, a test-storybook target will be generated in your project's project.json, with a command to invoke the Storybook test-runner.

You must provide a name and a uiFramework for the generator to work.

You can read more about how this generator works, in the Storybook package overview page.

If you are using Angular, React, React Native or Next.js in your project, it's best to use the framework specific generator:

Examples

Generate Storybook configuration using TypeScript

nx g @nx/storybook:configuration ui --uiFramework=@storybook/web-components-vite --tsConfiguration=true
Nx 15 and lower use @nrwl/ instead of @nx/

This will generate a Storybook configuration for the ui project using TypeScript for the Storybook configuration files (the files inside the .storybook directory).

Usage

nx generate configuration ...

By default, Nx will search for configuration in the default collection provisioned in workspace.json.

You can specify the collection explicitly as follows:

nx g @nx/storybook:configuration ...
Nx 15 and lower use @nrwl/ instead of @nx/

Show what will be generated without writing to disk:

nx g configuration ... --dry-run
