Same issues with node v19.3.0. I tried to install storybook with vuejs 3 in a separate repository to import components from different other packages in the same workspace.

Tested with the latest storybook 6.5 as well as 7.0.0-beta.31.

osvaldokalvaitir · 2023-01-23T18:55:32Z

I was able to perform the process on Node v16.15.0

cngJo · 2023-01-23T20:04:21Z

What have you done to get this working?

I have the following NPM workspace setup for my monorepo:

. 
./assets/apps/mc-storybook
./asstes/apps/mc-web
./assets/packages/component-library
./assets/packages/other-lib

where both assets/packages/* and assets/apps/* are defined as workspaces:

"workspaces": [
  "assets/packages/*",
  "assets/apps/*"
]

I've then create a new vuejs3 app in the ./assets/apps/storybook directory and ran npx storybook init --builder @storybook/builder-vite --type vue3 --use-npm which crashed with the error you originally posted.

Looking at the debug logs, this seems to be related to storybook calling the command:config command which is not supported by workspace:

Quote form the docs:

Note: This command is unaware of workspaces.

Are you doing sth. different than what I've described?

I only changed the version of Node.js

My package.json:

{
  "private": true,
  "workspaces": [
    "packages/*"
  ]
}

ghost · 2023-01-29T07:43:57Z

I can normal install this lib, always when i want use sb i must fixed 10 errors

wtf?

same error....
i think is npm version

danleyden · 2023-02-08T14:50:27Z

Hit this issue also with Node v19.6.0

It worked correctly after downgrading to Node v16.19.0

sgpicone · 2023-02-08T18:56:18Z

Also hit this issue, with Node v19.6.0, 19.5.0, 18.14.0

Downgrading to Node v16.19.0 resolved the problem but is definitely not ideal

AFusco · 2023-02-27T17:24:16Z

getting the same error, following the turborepo guide at https://turbo.build/repo/docs/handbook/tools/storybook, on node 16.19.1

idoialongan · 2023-03-07T11:03:40Z

An error occurred while installing dependencies. npm ERR! code ENOWORKSPACES npm ERR! This command does not support workspaces.

Same error with Node v18.14.2 and npm 9.6.0

davecarlson · 2023-03-08T20:40:04Z

Think this is a turborepo / npm bug, not storybook.

I have the same issue, and i dont have storybook installed.

npm 9.50
turbo 1.83
node v18.50.0

joepetrillo · 2023-03-13T18:05:21Z

I am getting the same error while using turborepo with npm and nextjs. My dependencies are installing but when I start the dev server I see the following.

RodrigoNovais · 2023-09-18T04:55:17Z

Having the same issue
I see it was tagged with "has workaround", I hope the workaround is not "use a no longer manteined version of node" cause I don't see any

dolgachio · 2024-02-19T11:59:40Z

I also faced this issue with Turborepo and React. So, it remains.
I want to contribute to fixing it if contributors think it makes sense.

node v18.19.0
npm v10.2.3
turbo v1.11.3

aewshyae · 2024-02-20T02:43:17Z

FYI same error in nextjs.

I hope it may help

valentinpalkovic · 2024-02-20T08:35:35Z

Can someone provide a minimal reproduction? https://storybook.new

dolgachio · 2024-02-20T17:11:18Z

@valentinpalkovic thank you for your response, so to reproduce it, do you need some examples on StackBlitz or some similar platform?

valentinpalkovic · 2024-02-20T17:15:31Z

You can also just provide a GitHub Repo with the minimal reproduction.

To resolve the issue of installing Storybook in a monorepo, follow these steps:

Ensure you are using the correct package manager commands for your setup. Refer to the following snippets for guidance:

For initializing Storybook:

npx storybook@latest init
pnpm dlx storybook@latest init
yarn dlx storybook@latest init

Source: /docs/_snippets/init-command.md

For initializing Storybook with specific version:
```
npx storybook@^7 init
pnpm dlx storybook@^7 init
yarn dlx storybook@^7 init
```
Source: /docs/_snippets/storybook-init-v7.md

If you need to specify a custom package manager, use the following commands:

npx storybook@latest init --package-manager=npm
pnpm dlx storybook@latest init --package-manager=npm
yarn dlx storybook@latest init --package-manager=npm

Source: /docs/_snippets/init-command-custom-package-manager.md

For Vite builder and React setup, ensure you have the necessary dependencies:

npm install @storybook/builder-vite --save-dev
pnpm add --save-dev @storybook/builder-vite
yarn add --dev @storybook/builder-vite

Source: /docs/_snippets/storybook-vite-builder-install.md

npm install --save-dev @storybook/react-vite
pnpm add --save-dev @storybook/react-vite
yarn add --dev @storybook/react-vite

Source: /docs/_snippets/react-vite-install.md

Install essential addons if needed:

npm install @storybook/addon-essentials --save-dev
pnpm add --save-dev @storybook/addon-essentials
yarn add --dev @storybook/addon-essentials

Source: /docs/_snippets/storybook-addon-essentials-install.md

These steps should help address the installation issues in a monorepo environment.

@vanessayuenn, Can we add this to the empathy backlog? I was finally stumbling upon a reproduction (see above). Let's fix this quickly because initializing Storybook in projects using npm/yarn workspaces is not working, and workspaces aren't that uncommon nowadays.

valentinpalkovic · 2024-07-15T12:27:03Z

I'm removing the has workaround label since downgrading to Node.js 16, which reached its EOL, isn't an option anymore.
