how do you enable withKnobs as a global?

I can't seem to get this to work globally?

Do you have these files configured:

config.js

import { addDecorator } from '@storybook/react';
import { withKnobs } from '@storybook/addon-knobs';

addDecorator(withKnobs);

addons.js

import '@storybook/addon-knobs/register'

Not working for me either, I see the knobs pane but nothing in it. Have the config.js and addons.js as noted.

Can you please share an example of the story file where you want to use knobs ?

[coreylight]

Pretty simple stuff:

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

import Avatar from './index';

const stories = storiesOf('Avatar', module);

stories.add('coreylight@gmail.com', () => {
  return <Avatar email="coreylight@gmail.com" />;
});

Perhaps I'm assuming that the decorator will simply enable all component props as knobs? If this isn't true, is it something that can be accomplished?

[igor-dv]

There is a smart knobs addon that does this: https://github.com/storybooks/addon-smart-knobs
Otherwise you need to define each property separately: https://github.com/storybooks/storybook/tree/master/addons/knobs

Great! Thanks @igor-dv, I'll look into it.
