There are tasks to fix some issues. Soon TODO list will be moved to GitHub issues.

Usage

1. Write markdown file near your story.

2. Import *.md file to your story, check if build will not fail. (Find Angular workaround in the bottom of the docs)

3. Add decorator and parameters.

   .addDecorator(withAnyInfo)
   .addParameters({
       anyinfo: {
           customStyles: "div {background: #0f0;}",
           markdown: "## Custom markdown header",
       }
   })

Parameters

Here are options for anyinfo parameter:

name	type	required
customStyles	string	No
markdown	string	No

Example

This is a final example with Angular:

import { withAnyInfo } from "storybook-any-info";
import * as markdown from "./README.md"; // Related docs file
import { Button } from "@storybook/angular/demo"; // Do not forget to replace with your component

storiesOf("Button", module)
  .addDecorator(withAnyInfo)
  .addParameters({
    anyinfo: {
      customStyles: "div {background: #0f0;}",
      markdown: "## Custom markdown header"
    }
  })
  .add("with text", () => ({
    moduleMetadata: {
      declarations: [Button]
    },
    template: `<storybook-button-component [text]="text"></storybook-button-component>`,
    props: {
      text: "Hello Button"
    }
  }));

CSS styling

You can setup your own styling, or use predefined one from exported variable storyStyles.

Support Markdown docs for Angular

Add types.d.ts with next content to .storybook directory:

declare module "*.md" {
  const value: string;
  export default value;
}

And add it to your .storybook/tsconfig.json:

{
  // ...
  "include": [
    "./types.d.ts"
    // ...
  ]
}
