Troubleshooting

  1. Error: Storybook preview hooks can only be called inside decorators and story functions

This is caused by storybookjs/storybook#9893. There are some work-arounds available:

  • If you have custom decorators which are rendering Story as React Element, change it to call story instead.
// preview.js

export const decorators = [
  function withCustomDecorator(Story) {
-    return <Story />;
+    return Story();
  }
]
  • If you have you have no custom decorators it is likely that 3rd party addon is causing this issue. If such addon is identified, make sure to report the issue to projects. As work-around try reordering your addons in main.js:
// main.js

module.exports = {
  addons: [
+    'some-addon-using-stories-as-react-elements-instead-of-functions',
    'storybook-addon-aria-live',
-    'some-addon-using-stories-as-react-elements-instead-of-functions',
  ],
};
