> No real example here to avoid adding more dependency to storybook mono repository

There are several ways to configure ngx-translate in storybook which will depend on your context.

Here is a simple example with a storybook decorator that you can place in the `preview.ts` or locally on the stories.
[See the doc on decorators](https://storybook.js.org/docs/angular/writing-stories/decorators)

```ts
import { HttpClient, HttpClientModule } from '@angular/common/http';
import { TranslateLoader, TranslateModule } from '@ngx-translate/core';
import { TranslateHttpLoader } from '@ngx-translate/http-loader';
import { moduleMetadata } from '@storybook/angular';

function createTranslateLoader(http: HttpClient) {
  return new TranslateHttpLoader(http, '/assets/i18n/', '.json');
}

const TranslateModuleDecorator = (storyFunc, context) => {
  const { locale } = context.globals;

  return moduleMetadata({
    imports: [
      HttpClientModule,
      TranslateModule.forRoot({
        defaultLanguage: locale,
        loader: {
          provide: TranslateLoader,
          useFactory: createTranslateLoader,
          deps: [HttpClient],
        },
      }),
    ],
  })(storyFunc, context);
};

// for `preview.ts`
export const decorators = [TranslateModuleDecorator];
```

If the `TranslateModule.forRoot` is made by another module you can try to set this provider `DEFAULT_LANGUAGE`

```ts
import { DEFAULT_LANGUAGE } from '@ngx-translate/core';

const TranslateModuleDecorator = (storyFunc, context) => {
  const { locale } = context.globals;

  return moduleMetadata({
    providers: [{ provide: DEFAULT_LANGUAGE, useValue: locale }],
  })(storyFunc, context);
};
```
