Is there an equivalent of the PHP function sanitize_key in Gutenberg?

Question

In WordPress's PHP library there is a function sanitize_key used to generate database keys and HTML IDs. I'd like to generate a slug from a title that can be used as an HTML ID, from within a Gutenberg block. Is there an equivalent (or close to equivalent) function in the Gutenberg library, or must I make my own?

Answer 1

Use import { cleanForSlug } from "@wordpress/editor"; in your block.js file to import the function in and then use the it like cleanForSlug(stringToClean) to create the ID's.
