Running Storybook on an Angular Library Project: Troubleshooting Common Errors

Are you encountering challenges while running Storybook on your Angular library project? If you recently created a new Angular workspace and generated a library but faced errors while trying to run Storybook, you're not alone! One common error that developers experience is the TS6053: File '../false' not found. This guide will guide you through solving this issue step by step.

Introduction to the Problem

You may have started off by creating a new Angular workspace with no applications, then generating a library and a playground application for testing purposes. The next logical step was initializing Storybook, but that led to a frustrating setback with an error message that can baffle many.

Here's a quick recap of the steps leading up to the issue you might have faced:

Understanding the Error

The error indicates that Storybook is trying to access a TypeScript configuration file that doesn't exist. It references a path of ../false, which is not valid. This usually occurs when Storybook's configuration is not set up correctly, particularly with respect to the tsconfig.json inheritance.

Steps to Fix the Error

Now, let’s go through the steps to fix the TS6053 error:

Step 1: Locate Your Storybook Configuration

Within your Angular workspace, you should look for a folder named .storybook. This folder should contain the configuration files Storybook uses to run effectively.

Step 2: Edit the tsconfig.json

Inside the .storybook folder, you will find a tsconfig.json file. Open this file, and you will likely see an incorrect reference at the top of the file, specified like this:

Step 3: Update the Configuration

Change the line that references ../false to correctly point to your main tsconfig.json:

Step 4: Include Your Stories

In addition to updating the 'extends' path, make sure that your tsconfig.json file includes a path to your story files. This helps Storybook find the stories it needs to run. Add the following line:

Final Check

After making these changes, save the tsconfig.json file and attempt to run Storybook again:

If everything is set up correctly, you should no longer see the TS6053 error, and Storybook will start running without issues!

Conclusion

By carefully adjusting the tsconfig.json file config in your Storybook setup, you can easily resolve the frustrating TS6053 error and continue developing your Angular library with visual testing capabilities. Remember, taking the time to ensure your configuration paths are correct can save you significant debugging time in the long run.

Now you're ready to enjoy Storybook in your Angular environment! Happy coding!
