@vtaits/storybook-react-docgen-typescript-plugin
A webpack plugin to inject react typescript docgen information
Install
npm install --save-dev @vtaits/storybook-react-docgen-typescript-plugin
# or
yarn add -D @vtaits/storybook-react-docgen-typescript-plugin
Usage
NOTE: The TypeScript compiler options allowSyntheticDefaultImports and esModuleInterop will make
react-docgen-typescript-plugin a lot harder! Turn them off for faster build times.
const ts = require("typescript");
const ReactDocgenTypescriptPlugin = require("react-docgen-typescript-plugin")
.default;
module.exports = {
plugins: [
// Will default to loading your root tsconfig.json
new ReactDocgenTypescriptPlugin(),
// or with a specific tsconfig
new ReactDocgenTypescriptPlugin({ tsconfigPath: "./tsconfig.dev.json" }),
// or with compiler options
new ReactDocgenTypescriptPlugin({
compilerOptions: { jsx: ts.JsxEmit.Preserve },
}),
],
};

Debugging
If you want to see how this plugins is including and excluding modules set the DEBUG environment variable.
DEBUG=docgen:* - All logsDEBUG=docgen:include - Included modulesDEBUG=docgen:exclude - Excluded modulesDEBUG=docgen:docs - Generated docs
DEBUG=docgen:* npm run storybook
Another great way of debugging your generated docs is to use a debugger statement in your component source file.
If you turn off source maps you will be able to see the code that this package generates.
