storyblok-generate-ts v2.1.0

storyblok-generate-ts

This plugin uses json-schema-to-typescript to generate TS types based on Storyblok components. You can install and run it as a CLI script

1. Prepare the use of this script

a) Fetch your schema with Storyblok CLI

# Make sure storyblok is installed (npm i storyblok -g)
$ storyblok pull-components --space=[SPACE_ID]

Example:

$ storyblok pull-components --space=123456

b) Install this library as devDependency

$ npm install -D storyblok-generate-ts

c) Create node script inside of your package.json scripts

"generate-sb-types": "storyblok-generate-ts source=./components.[SPACE_ID].json target=./component-types-sb"

Example:

"generate-sb-types": "storyblok-generate-ts source=./components.123456.json target=./component-types-sb"

You can also provide multiple files as source in case you used the --separate-files flag with the pull-components command:

"generate-sb-types": "storyblok-generate-ts source=string hero-[SPACE_ID].json,footer-[SPACE_ID].json target=./component-types-sb"

Example:

"generate-sb-types": "storyblok-generate-ts source=string hero-123456.json,footer-123456.json target=./component-types-sb"

Properties of CLI

- source *required - path of the components.[SPACE_ID].json or multiple files as comma-separated string hero-[SPACE_ID].json,footer-[SPACE_ID].json
- target *optional default: storyblok-component-types.d.ts
- titlePrefix *optional default: '_storyblok' 
- titleSuffix *optional
- resolveLinks *optional 
- compilerOptions.[property] *optional
- customTypeParser *optional - path to a custom parser NodeJS file

Compiler options:

Alternative to CLI script: create a NodeJS javascript file

Example:

const storyblokToTypescript = require('src/index')

storyblokToTypescript({
    // required
    componentsJson: require('./components.xxxxxx.json'), // pull components with storyblok
    // required
    path: __dirname + '/src/typings/generated/components-schema.ts', // make sure path exists
    // optional type prefix (default: none)
    titlePrefix: '',
    // optional type name suffix (default: [Name]_Storyblok)
    titleSuffix: '_storyblok',
    // optional resolveLinks (default: story)
    resolveLinks: "url",
    // optional compilerOptions which get passed through to json-schema-to-typescript
    compilerOptions: {
        unknownAny: false,
        bannerComment: '',
        unreachableDefinitions: true
    }
    // optional function for custom types (key, obj) => {}
    // customTypeParser: exampleCustomParser
})

3. Run your script

$ node ./YOUR_SCRIPT_NAME.js

Example Custom Parser

function exampleCustomParser (key, obj) {
  switch (obj.field_type) {
    case 'bootstrap-utility-class-selector':
      return {
        [key]: {
          type: 'object',
          properties: {
            values: {
              type: 'array',
              items: {
                type: 'string'
              }
            }
          }
        }
      }
    case 'vue-color-picker':
      return {
        [key]: {
          type: 'object',
          properties: {
            rgba: {
              type: 'string'
            }
          }
        }
      }
    default:
      return {}
  }
}

Inspect your generated file

You can inspect all interfaces in the generated output of your file. From now on all your components blocks will be type safe (even if you use the custom blocks of Storyblok).

Generic Types

Following types are available for convenient reasons (if they are used in your component schema):

AssetStoryblok
MultiassetStoryblok
MultilinkStoryblok
TableStoryblok

Resolve relations

If you use resolve_relations you can simply extend your required schema to support fully typed relations.

Example: resolve_relations: "page.author,page.categories,page.tags"

type PageWithRelations = PageStoryblok & {
  author?: StoryData<AuthorStoryblok>
  categories?: StoryData<CategoryStoryblok>[]
  tags?: StoryData<TagStoryblok>[]
}
