you couldn't translate Chinese into id property? about markdown-it-anchor HOT 5 CLOSED

Makes sense, well in this case your slugify function can just be title => title, there's already code that adds -1, -2 at the end of the ID in case an ID was already used.

I might default to this in the next major version, simple and easy, thanks for the suggestion. 👍

maybe a full solution:
UPDATED: sorry I just saw the uniqueSlug function in the lib, it's allready done. GJ~

var transliteration = require('transliteration')
var markdownItAnchorSlugCache = {}
// and use custom slugify function in markdown-it-anchor config
slugify: function(s) {
  var slug = transliteration.slugify(s, {lowercase: true, separator: '-', ignore: []})
  if (markdownItAnchorSlugCache[slug]) {
    slug += '-' + (markdownItAnchorSlugCache[slug]++)
  } else {
    markdownItAnchorSlugCache[slug] = 1
  }

  return slug
}

Duplicate of #10; the problem is the ID property is determined with strings.js, which seems to support only western languages.

What slugification module would you advise instead? I might switch from strings.js to something that have better language support it in a next major release (will be a breaking change).

Meanwhile, you can configure your own slugify function (takes the title text as argument, returns the ID), to make it support Chinese.

en. maybe you misunderstand my mean. I just want you just to use text and mix with some hash to make sure the id is unique. not to translate Chinese. and I just do as you suggest

Fixed by version 5.0.0.
