bs-storybook

BuckleScript bindings for Storybook.

The goal of this project is to provide bindings for the main Storybook API, as well as the official add-ons. Currently it supports:

Getting Started

First install this package:

npm install bs-storybook

Next, you'll need to add bs-storybook to your bsconfig.json as a dependency.

Then, get Storybook up and running according to their docs

Note: This library does not attempt to provide a way to configure storybook in Reason - just use the standard JS configs.

In your /.storybook/config.js, import your stories from wherever your compiled Reason modules end up. For example, if you're writing your stories inside a __stories__ directory, and bsb is configured for a standard build, you might do something like:

const req = require.context('../lib/js', true, /\__stories__\/.*.js$/);
configure(() => {
  req.keys().forEach(module => {
    req(module).default();
  });
}, module);

or if you are using Storybook v6.

/* .storybook/main.js */
module.exports = {
  stories: ['../stories/**/*.js'],
  addons: ['@storybook/addon-actions', '@storybook/addon-links', '@storybook/addon-knobs/register'],
};

Note that in the above example, we're assuming the convention of each module containing a function as the default export. bs-storybook is accountable for that while writting your stories:

Writing a story

Here's a basic story in its entirety:

open BsStorybook.Story;

let _module = [%bs.raw "module"];

storiesOf("My First Reason Story", _module)
->add("Chapter I", () => <span> {React.string("Hello bs-storybook!")} </span>);

Storybook uses a reference to the module global provided by webpack to facilitate hot-reloading. We'll access that via the [%bs.raw] decorator.

The Actions Addon

The action addon's API is essentially unchanged from its JS implementation:

Make sure that you have @storybook/addon-actions in the config

let clickAction = Action.action("I Clicked The Button!");

<div onClick={clickAction} />

The Knobs Addon

To use knobs you have twoo ways:

Make sure that you have @storybook/addon-knobs/register in the config

As a decorator

open Storybook;
open Story;

let _module = [%bs.raw "module"];

storiesOf("My First Reason Story", _module)
->addDecorator(Knobs.withKnobs)
->add("Chaper with Knobs", () => {
    let name = Knobs.text(~label="Name", ~defaultValue="Patrick", ());
    <span> {React.string(name)} </span>;
  })

Creating the story

open Storybook;
open Story;

let _module = [%bs.raw "module"];

let knobsStory =
  Main.createStory(
    ~title="Hey look, knobs!",
    ~decorators=[Knobs.withKnobs],
    ~_module,
    (),
  );

knobsStory.add("Chaper with Knobs", () => {
  let name = Knobs.text(~label="Name", ~defaultValue="Patrick", ());
  <span> {React.string(name)} </span>;
})

Each knob type is invoked using a function with labeled arguments, and each requires passing unit as the final argument. They all share a ~label argument, and a ~defaultValue argument (where appropriate):

Text

let myText = Knobs.text(~label="What should it say?", ~defaultValue="Sup?", ());

Boolean

let myBoolean = Knobs.boolean(~label="Should Show?", ~defaultValue=true, ());

Note: The boolean type will call the underlying JS knob with a defaultValue of false if one is not provided.

Color

let myColor = Knobs.color(~label="Color", ~defaultValue="#333" ());

Number

The number type works with floats. If no defaultValue is provided, it will pass 0. It also takes an optional rangeConfig record, which allows for specifying a min, max, and step so that the knob is displayed as a range slider.

let num1 = Knobs.number(~label="Number 1", ());
let num2 =
  Knobs.number(
    ~label="Number 2",
    ~rangeConfiguration={range: true, min: 0., max: 10., step: 1.},
    ()
  );

Select

To use the select knob, first define a record type that contains the shape of the options, then the actual options as a type of selectConfig, passing your shape as the constructor type:

type selectOptions = {
  one: string,
  two: string
};

let options : Knobs.selectConfig(selectOptions) = {
  one: "Hello",
  two: "Hi"
};

Then define the select knob like so:

let greeting = Knobs.select(~label="Greeting", ~options, ~defaultValue=options.one, ());

Button

Knobs.button(
  ~label="Knob Button",
  ~handler=Action.action("Clicked the knob button"),
  ()
)

Object

let obj = Knobs.object_(~label="User", ~defaultValue={"color": "grey"}, ());

Js.Dict

https://bucklescript.github.io/bucklescript/api/Js.Dict.html

let options =
  Js.Dict.fromArray([|
    ("Red", "red"),
    ("Blue", "blue"),
    ("Yellow", "yellow"),
    ("None", ""),
  |]);

let color =
  Knobs.selectFromDict(
    ~label="MySelection",
    ~options,
    ~defaultValue="red",
    (),
  );

Array

let color =
  Knobs.selectFromArray(
    ~label="MySelection",
    ~options=[|"red", "blue", "yellow"|],
    ~defaultValue="red",
    (),
  );
