Getting Started

React Components

• Adding New Component

  All React Components are in src directory.Components can use ES6 or ES5 standardization.

React Storybook

• About

  Reference : ReactStoryBook.

  Storybook is a UI development environment for your UI components. With it, you can visualize different states of your UI components and develop them interactively.

  Storybook runs outside of your app. So you can develop UI components in isolation without worrying about app specific dependencies and requirements.

• Adding New Stories

  Add new file at stories directory, for example can be seen on /stories/test.stories.js. The file must match the following format <name>.stories.js.

• Adding Custom Head Tags (css/js/etc)

  Reference : ReactStoryBook

  Adding new file Simply create a file called preview-head.html inside the Storybook config directory .storybook.

• Example

  • Structure

    project
    └─── .storybook
      └─── addons.js
      └─── config.js
      └─── preview-head.html
    

  • Inside preview-head.html

    <link href="https://link.com/style.css" />
    <srcipt src="https://link.com/app.js"></script>
    <script>
      yourFunction()
    </script>
    

• Adding Local Resource

  For example, Place the style.css into the directory .storybook, and next import ./style.css from the file ./storybook/config.js.

  import './style.css'
  

• Start StoryBook

  yarn start
  

Testing

We are using Airbnb/Enzyme with Mocha as testing utility for React that makes it easier to assert, manipulate, and traverse your React Component's output.

• Sample

  Please open src/__test__/Test.js

• Adding New Testing

  Place your tests file in the directory __test__.

• Start Testing

  yarn test
  

  or

  yarn test:watch
  

Publishing to NPM

Import your React Component into index.js which is in the root project.

• Prepublish All React components that are in the src directory, will be converted to es5 into dist directory to be read as npm package. Are you can do it manually

yarn run prepublish
