@nrwl/storybook Set Project/App to take build config

[ChazUK]

I'm running Storybook on an Angular project for a UI library. When running nx run ui:storybook the build configuration is taken from the defaultProject property in angular.json

info => Using angular project 'default-app' for configuring Storybook.

Is it possible to set build configs for each storybook implementation, or point the builder to a specifically configure app within the monorepo?

Couldn't you modify workspace.json storybook.builder?

[ChazUK]

@webberwang I'm using Angular, so I'm guessing you mean angular.json in the root.

my build config is

"storybook": {
  "builder": "@nrwl/storybook:build",
  "options": {
    "uiFramework": "@storybook/angular",
    "outputPath": "dist/libs/ui/dist/storybook",
    "config": {
      "configFolder": "libs/ui/.storybook"
    }
  },
  "configurations": {
    "ci": {
      "quiet": true
    }
  }
},

From what I can tell there is no option to select a specific application to use as it's default config https://github.com/nrwl/nx/blob/master/packages/storybook/src/builders/build-storybook/schema.json

Something is off about the way the workspace.json generated by nx is used with @storybook/angular. I have tracked it down and storybook is looking for a project to load its configuration by looking for a project called storybook, then the workspace/angular default, and finally falling back to the first project in the list. https://github.com/storybookjs/storybook/blob/v6.0.28/app/angular/src/server/angular-cli_config.ts#L63

Locally I skipped this logic and when you return null it loads the custom configuration that nx generated. In my env I was getting an error and storybook was working at all before I made these local changes.
