storybook-addon-blabbr

Component reviewer and approver for React Storybook.

Configuration

blabbr expects to find a storybook-config.json configuration file at the root of your host, for static builds, or inside your storybook setup folder (generally .storybook).

Fill out the template located at .storybook/storybook-config.json.template and rename it to storybook-config.json.

This should look like this:

{
  "storybook": {
    "blabbr": {
      "db": {
        "user": "username",
        "pwd": "password",
        "host": "db-endpoint"
      },
      "slack": {
        "endPoint": "http://your-slack-endpoint"
      },
      "ui": {
        "avatar": true
      }
    }
  }
}

The host for the blabbr db should be localhost:5984/blabbr if using local CouchDB (see below). User and pwd can be omitted in that case.

Storybook registration

To use the plugin you need to register it, like most Storybook plugins. Simply add the following to your addons.js file in the storybook configuration:

import '@buildit/storybook-addon-blabbr/register';

Comment formatting

Comments are formatted using the marked package.

Local CouchDB setup

Install Apache CouchDB by downloading the respective installer for your OS.

Once installation is done, navigate to http://localhost:5984. Create an admin username and password.

Go to configuration and CORS and enable CORS.

Add the correct values to the storybook-config.json as mentioned above.
