Allow slugger to be passed in

[tremby]

Subject of the feature

It'd be helpful to be able to pass the slugger instance in as configuration.

Problem

In the context of a page with multiple chunks of markdown, it's possible for the same slug to be generated more than once on the same page.

Expected behavior

If I anticipate that I'd like to be able to pass in an instance that the plugin would use to generate slugs rather than minting its own one. That way I can be in charge of resetting it when I decide it's necessary, and I can use the same slugger for multiple markdown renderings.

Alternatives

I suppose I could set a different clobberPrefix for each markdown field, but I'd rather not.

Setting prefixes for different sections is a pretty smart idea imo.

This is a tiny plugin: 21 sloc. The complexity for users to maintain their own slug instances, and to code needed to supporting that here, maybe it’s just better to create your own version?

[tremby]

I agree in principle but I don't like the idea for my particular use case. The markdown in my case isn't from untrusted users, it's from a CMS, and it's a page-builder sort of thing. I want the slugs for headings to be as clean as possible, and I don't even know the section names ahead of time.

Good point about the small size of the plugin. Very reasonable idea to make my own.
