logic as standalone npm module about storybook

[arunoda]

Okay got it. Good idea.

What you you mean by the logic? The UI is core part of Storybook.
Could you add more information a bit.

We already have an application that provides a visual overview for all our patterns. I do not want to setup another tool that provides the same thing with just another featureset.

here would be an imaginary flow on how to use the logic of this project in my application:

npm install react-storybook --save

// my-stories.js
// ...
import { storiesOf } from '@kadira/storybook';

storiesOf('Button', module)
// register stories...

// navigation.js
// ...
import { storiesOf } from '@kadira/storybook';

storiesOf('Button').forEach(story => /* my implementation of rendering a nav-entry */);

// view.jsx
// ...
import { StoryView } from '@kadira/storybook';

<MyPatternlab>
  <MyNavigation></MyNavigation>
  <StoryView for=currentStory></StoryView>
</MyPatternlab>

This way I could use this as a less opinionated subcomponent in my own solution.

Storybook stories are extractable see for example how storyshots is doing it:
