Storybook Addon Backgrounds

Storybook Background Addon can be used to change background colors inside the preview in Storybook.

Framework Support

React Storybook Screenshot

Installation

npm i -D @storybook/addon-backgrounds

Configuration

Then create a file called addons.js in your storybook config.

Add following content to it:

import '@storybook/addon-backgrounds/register';

Usage

Then write your stories like this:

import React from 'react';
import { storiesOf } from '@storybook/react';

storiesOf('Button', module)
  .addParameters({
    backgrounds: [
      { name: 'twitter', value: '#00aced', default: true },
      { name: 'facebook', value: '#3b5998' },
    ],
  })
  .add('with text', () => <button>Click me</button>);

You can add the backgrounds to all stories with addParameters in .storybook/config.js:

import { addParameters } from '@storybook/react'; // <- or your storybook framework

addParameters({
  backgrounds: [
    { name: 'twitter', value: '#00aced', default: true },
    { name: 'facebook', value: '#3b5998' },
  ],
});

If you want to override backgrounds for a single story or group of stories, pass the backgrounds parameter:

import React from 'react';
import { storiesOf } from '@storybook/react';

storiesOf('Button', module)
  .add('with text', () => <button>Click me</button>, {
    backgrounds: [{
      name: 'red', value: 'rgba(255, 0, 0)',
    }]
  });

If you don't want to use backgrounds for a story, you can set the backgrounds parameter to [], or use { disable: true } to skip the addon:

import React from 'react';
import { storiesOf } from '@storybook/react';

storiesOf('Button', module)
  .add('example 1', () => <button>Click me</button>, {
    backgrounds: [],
  });

storiesOf('Button', module)
  .add('example 2', () => <button>Click me</button>, {
    backgrounds: { disable: true },
  });
