Check Anchor and External Link used in md and mdx files

$ npx storybook-deadlink-checker --dir="./path/to/folder"

Check storybook links along with anchor and external links

The magic is really simple. The scrapper finds all the <LinkTo kind='*'/> , [Link](?path=/docs/*) and <a href="?path=/docs/*">Link</a> tags in the storybook stories and checks if the links are valid in the hosted/local storybook build.

To validate the story links you need to have a storybook url. You can either use the live build url or the local build url.

For local build url, you can use the following command:

$ npx build-storybook -o ./local-storybook-build-folder

// then validate the links
$ npx storybook-deadlink-checker --dir="./path/to/folder" --url="file:///${PWD}/local-storybook-build-folder"

For live build url, you can use the following command:

$ npx start-storybook -p 9009 --no-manager-cache -s public
$ npx storybook-deadlink-checker --dir="./path/to/folder" --url="http://localhost:9009"

Only show failed links

$ npx storybook-deadlink-checker --dir="./path/to/folder" --url="http://localhost:9009" --onlyFail
