Starting over to fix migration, can't get preset-typescript to work

[mattfelten]

I've been having a lot of trouble updating Storybook from 5.1.9 to 5.2.5 and part of that is the Typescript setup we have. I threw my hands up and started an entire new project to at least get a build working, and then I can integrate it into my existing project. Even that doesn't work.

Basic example
https://github.com/mattfelten/storybook-preset-typescript-test

The one story here is not being found. I followed the docs. What am I missing?

Your config:

configure(require.context('../stories', true, /.stories.tsx$/), module);

Your story file: Test.story.tsx

Once I rename to Test.stories.tsx it tries to load, but fails because there is more setup to do.

Storybook is meant to be added to an existing working app, not bootstrapped in an empty directory. To get it working I also needed to yarn add typescript --dev and create a tsconfig.json.

Gotcha. I'll keep working on this. I know this isn't the correct way of setting it up, but I'm having trouble with some dependencies (storybookjs/storybook#8730) so just trying to isolate whether it's our project or I'm misconfiguring something.

Got it working. Thanks for your help!
