4. Storybook

Volto provides integration with Storybook, which is used to document and demonstrate various UI component. You can check the current deployed version of the Storybook at the Plone 6 (dev) documentation website

To run Volto's Storybook, with a clone of Volto you can run:

yarn storybook

Volto project generated using the scaffold also provide integration of Storybook with Volto addons, so the stories contained in addons are discovered and included in the generated Storybook build.

A Volto storybook story would look like this:

import { injectIntl } from 'react-intl';
import React from 'react';
import { BreadcrumbsComponent } from './Breadcrumbs';
import Wrapper from '@plone/volto/storybook';

export const Breadcrumb = injectIntl(({ children, ...args }) => {
  return (
    <Wrapper location={{ pathname: '/folder2/folder21/doc212' }}>
      <div className="ui segment form attached" style={{ width: '400px' }}>
        <BreadcrumbsComponent
          pathname=""
          items={[
            {
              '@id': 'https://volto.kitconcept.com/api/Members',
              title: 'Users',
            },
          ]}
          getBreadcrumbs={() => {}}
          {...args}
        />
      </div>
    </Wrapper>
  );
});

Notice the <Wrapper> component, which provides a minimal Volto "environment context" that to ensure that the deeply-integrated Volto components can function.

To create a static build of your storybook (which you can publish to a static http server, for example github.io pages), you need to run:

yarn build-storybook
