Storybook Framework Qwik

This is a framework to allow using Storybook with Qwik.

Limitations

  • This has only been tested with brand new Qwik applications and component libraries.
  • Story is completely reloaded when component is changed (no hot module replacement)
  • There is no automation yet for easily scaffolding storybook in a Qwik project.
  • Stories are run in dev mode - no SSR, or serialization happens

Setup

In an existing Qwik project, run npx storybook@next init (Storybook 7 is required)

See the Storybook Docs for the best documentation on getting started with Storybook.

Usage

A basic story will look like this:

import Header, { HeaderProps } from "./header";
import { StoryObj } from "storybook-framework-qwik";

export default {
  title: "Header",
  component: Header, // component value may be a `component$`, or a "Lite component" (function component)
} as Meta<HeaderProps>;

export const Default: StoryObj<HeaderProps> = {};

You can include a custom renderer for each Meta, or for each story. However, the renderer cannot use Qwik features (such as useStore). If you need Qwik features in the story, make a wrapper for the component. This is useful when a component expects its props to be reactive state (such as useStore or useSignal)

import {
  ReactiveComponent,
  ReactiveComponentProps,
} from "./reactive-component";
import { Meta, StoryObj } from "storybook-framework-qwik";
import { component$, useStore } from "@builder.io/qwik";

const ReactiveComponentWrapper = component$<ReactiveComponentProps>((args) => {
  const state = useStore(args.state);
  return <ReactiveComponent state={state} />;
});

export default {
  title: "Reactive Component",
  component: ReactiveComponent,
  render: (args) => <ReactiveComponentWrapper state={args.state} />,
  args: { state: { number: 1 } },
} as Meta<ReactiveComponentProps>;

export const Default: StoryObj<ReactiveComponentProps> = {};

Decorators

To make a story decorator, create a function that returns JSX, including the StoryFn passed to the decorator as a parameter

import { JSXNode } from "@builder.io/qwik";
import { MyComponent } from "./my-component";
import { Decorator } from "storybook-framework-qwik";

export const myDecorator: Decorator = (Story) =>
  // Cast is needed because something is out of sync with the JSXNode generated in tsx files and the type expected by Decorator
  (<MyComponent>{Story()}</MyComponent>) as JSXNode;

Qwik City

If using QwikCity features in your components, you may want to import the qwikCityDecorator, which wraps stories in MockQwikCityProvider. This can be added to all stories by exporting the decorator in a decorators array in .storybook/preview.ts:

import { qwikCityDecorator } from "storybook-framework-qwik/qwik-city-decorator";
export const decorators = [qwikCityDecorator];

You can also add the decorator to individual stories or story files.

Because this framework is shipped only as an ESM module, this may require that you add "type": "module" to your package.json (or create a package.json inside your .storybook folder to only make this setting apply to storybook).

Many parts of this package are based on code that I got from this PR, which got some ideas from this discussion.
