How to change Slicemachine storybook snapshot location

[Phil (Phil Snow)]

Hi Dan,

I talked with the team to get some follow up information on your questions.

@dan

Can I manually overwrite the mocks.json data in slicemachine/assets/slices ?

The issue with manually doing this is that any time you make a change in the Slice editor your mocks will be overwritten and you'll be back to square one.

@dan

Can I link up the automatic screengrabbing to custom storybook stories?

We've tested this, and while there is no issue connecting a custom story, connecting a custom mock causes issues.

So to answer your main question:

@dan

What's the best way of getting storybook to display these stories with the correct data, and then capture the screenshot automatically with context ?

There is no good way of doing this for the moment. I realise how tedious the alternative is for you, but this will be in our plans to implement mocks for content relationships at some point, although it's not being worked on at the moment.

This is a tricky one but the team has it in mind and if they have any updates they'll notify you here.

Thanks.
