How does one establish a seed value for underlying chance library

[peternhale]

In previous release one had access to the Generators constructor where a seed value could be supplied. How does one accomplish the same in v3?

Also does one have access the chance instance, a getter or some other means?

Thanks in advance.

Hi @peternhale, I'm very sorry that I have broken the API for you, I take that kind of change very serious. The new version is always seeded, so you don't have to do anything if you just need a seeded generator. If you need to use another seed, you can get values for a given seed: https://sunesimonsen.github.io/chance-generators/api/generator/#take-n-options-

But we have discussed, also providing a way to get generators for a given seed:

const { generators } = require('chance-generators')

const { natural, string } = generators({ seed: 666 })

What is your use-cases by the way?
