const opts = {
  code_handlers: {
    'bs-alert': (code, infoString) => {
      const alertStyle = infoString ? infoString.slice('bs-alert'.length).trim() : 'primary'
      return `<div class="alert alert-${alertStyle}" role="alert">${code}</div>`
    }
  }
}

const input = '```bs-alert info\nA simple primary alert—check it out!\n```'
const output = mdr(input, opts) // '<div class="alert alert-info" role="alert">A simple primary alert—check it out!</div>'
