Install

Install storybook-directory-chapters via yarn (or npm).

$ yarn add storybook-directory-chapters -D

storybook-directory-chapters requires @storybook/addon-chapters, so if you have not installed the addon yet, set it up, too.

Usage

In your Storybook config, pass loadDirectories() a given require context of any directory you want your Storybook's navigation tree to mirror.

// .storybook/config.js

import { configure } from '@storybook/react';
import '@storybook/addon-chapters';
import loadDirectories from 'storybook-directory-chapters';

// get a context of any directory you want your Storybook's navigation tree to mirror
const context = require.context('../example', true, /_stories.js$/);

function loadStories() {
  // in loadStories(), pass loadDirectories() the context
  loadDirectories(context);
}

configure(loadStories, module);

Under the directory you specified, you can add a story to the generated chapters.

// atoms/Button/_stories.js

import React from 'react';

module.exports = stories => (
  stories
  .add('with text', () => (
    <button>Hello button</button>
  ))
  .add('with some emoji', () => (
    <button>😀 😎 👍 💯</button>
  ))
);

The stories above will become:
