Seems like the test and doc github workflows aren't configured to run on PRs from forks, mind also adding |

nit: "singleton_id" feels more descriptive that it should be a string value, not bool

Did you consider making the registry more global so they can be saved across instantiate calls? Would be interested to know if anyone has strong opinions on which behavior is preferred

I though about adding it to hydra global but that caused a circular reference in the modules. It could be passed in as an optional parameter to instantiate so that someone has the option to re-use it

Can/should we enforce singleton_name is a string?

that makes sense, will update

I'm concerned this could get confusing if two different dicts have the same singleton_name and it's not totally obvious which will be used. Since this primarily seems to be wanted with omegaconf resolution, the dicts should be identical - what do you think of storing the original node in singleton_registry and doing an extra check that this node's fields also match the original?

ya that is a bit concerning and tricky to catch, checking the dicts are the same feels wrong but would be good to check to give atleast a warning.

Due to some of the issues I also added an alternate method that I think is a bit more robust: #3025 will move to the feature request to get feedback on which approach would fit better |

I made something similar here #3063. Do you know why this wasn't accepted? |

Motivation
Adds a singleton option similar to that proposed in #1393
Instead of
_singleton_: truea unique name is given to each singleton,_singleton_: "my_singletons_name"this allows the config file to beresolvedand still have singletons work.Have you read the Contributing Guidelines on pull requests?
Yes
Test Plan
Can add tests that nested singletons are working correctly. Not sure how to set up tests to see if this will break any interactions with the other flags like
