Source

The Source block is used to render a snippet of source code directly.

Screenshot of Source block

{/* ButtonDocs.mdx */}

import { Meta, Source } from '@storybook/blocks';
import * as ButtonStories from './Button.stories';

<Meta of={ButtonStories} />

<Source of={ButtonStories.Primary} />

Source

import { Source } from '@storybook/blocks';
Configuring with props and parameters

ℹ️ Like most blocks, the Source block is configured with props in MDX. Many of those props derive their default value from a corresponding parameter in the block's namespace, parameters.docs.source.

The following language configurations are equivalent:

<CodeSnippets paths={[ 'angular/api-doc-block-source-parameter.ts.mdx', 'web-components/api-doc-block-source-parameter.js.mdx', 'web-components/api-doc-block-source-parameter.ts.mdx', 'common/api-doc-block-source-parameter.js.mdx', 'common/api-doc-block-source-parameter.ts.mdx', ]} />

{/* ButtonDocs.mdx */}

<Source of={ButtonStories.Basic} language="tsx" />

The example above applied the parameter at the story level, but it could also be applied at the component (or meta) level or project level.

code

Type: string

Default: parameters.docs.source.code

Provides the source code to be rendered.

{/* ButtonDocs.mdx */}

import { Meta, Source } from '@storybook/blocks';
import * as ButtonStories from './Button.stories';

<Meta of={ButtonStories} />

<Source code={`const thisIsCustomSource = true;
if (isSyntaxHighlighted) {
  console.log('syntax highlighting is working');
}`} />

dark

Type: boolean

Default: parameters.docs.source.dark

Determines if the snippet is rendered in dark mode.

💡 Light mode is only supported when the Source block is rendered independently. When rendered as part of a Canvas block—like it is in autodocs—it will always use dark mode.

format

Type: boolean | 'dedent' | BuiltInParserName

Default: parameters.docs.source.format or true

Specifies the formatting used on source code. Both true and 'dedent' have the same effect of removing any extraneous indentation. Supports all valid prettier parser names.

language

Type:

'jsextra' | 'jsx' | 'json' | 'yml' | 'md' | 'bash' | 'css' | 'html' | 'tsx' | 'typescript' | 'graphql'

Default: parameters.docs.source.language or 'jsx'

Specifies the language used for syntax highlighting.

of

Type: Story export

Specifies which story's source is rendered.

transform

Type: (code: string, storyContext: StoryContext) => string

Default: parameters.docs.source.transform

A function to dynamically transform the source before being rendered, based on the original source and any story context necessary. The returned string is displayed as-is. If both code and transform are specified, transform will be ignored.

type

Type: 'auto' | 'code' | 'dynamic'

Default: parameters.docs.source.type or 'auto'

Specifies how the source code is rendered.

  • auto: Same as dynamic, if supported by the framework in use; otherwise same as code
  • code: Renders the value of code prop, otherwise renders static story source
  • dynamic: Renders the story source with dynamically updated arg values

💡 Note that dynamic snippets will only work if the story uses args and the Story block for that story is rendered along with the Source block.

id (deprecated)

Type: string

Specifies the story id for which to render the source code. Referencing a story this way is no longer supported; use the of prop, instead.

ids (deprecated)

Type: string[]

Specifies the story ids for which to render source code. Multiple stories are no longer supported; to render a single story's source, use the of prop.
