[theme-docs] remark-footnotes plugin doesn't work since version 0.7

Version

@nuxt/content: v1.0.0 @nuxt/content-theme-docs: v0.7.2 nuxt: v2.14.7

Reproduction Link

https://codesandbox.io/s/busy-jennings-vbogj?file=/content/index.md

This demo doesn’t use theme-docs but just forked the one written in the issue template, because the bug is actually due to @nuxt/content itself.

Steps to reproduce

• Upgrade @nuxt/content to v1.10.0
• Use footnotes in markdown contents
• See the rendered page

What is Expected?

• Footnotes are correctly rendered.
• Or, all the remark-related dependencies should have been updated at once.

What is actually happening?

• Footnotes are not correctly rendered.
• Or, major update of remark plugins was published without the dependency.

Additional context (what I found)

#531 major-updated remark-footnotes to v3.0.0 and it has already been published as a part of @nuxt/content@1.10.0. However, as written in the official repo of remark-footnotes or warned in the console of the demo above, remark-footnotes@3.0.0 requires remark-parse@9.0.0. #567 is to update remark-parse but it has not yet been merged and published.

So, until #567 is published, we can’t use footnotes in markdown contents. I’m not sure there is a workaround, though.

Did someone tried yarn add remark-footnotes@2 ?

Yup – just tried this.

npm i remark-footnotes@2

Footnotes seem to render properly – and I didn’t see the installation warning.

Just to make sure, I deleted node_modules and package-lock.json – and did a full npm install.

Everything seems fine – so for the moment, at least – this seems like a work around.

Thanks!

From package.json:

"@nuxt/content": "^1.10.0",
"nuxt": "^2.14.7",
"remark-footnotes": "2.0.0"

Ah, I found remark-parse@9.0.0 was published 10 days after remark-footnotes@3.0.0 was published. So, it was be just a timing issue, since there is no way the renovate app know the relationship between them and include them into one PR. The app just creates PRs in a certain interval, doesn’t it?
