markdown-it-link-attributes

markdown-it-link-attributes

Link attributes plugin for markdown-it markdown parser.

Install

node.js, browser:

npm install markdown-it-link-attributes --save
bower install markdown-it-link-attributes --save

Use

var md = require('markdown-it')()
var mila = require('markdown-it-link-attributes')

md.use(mila, {
  target: '_blank',
  rel: 'noopener'
})

var html = md.render('[link](https://google.com)')
html // <p><a href="https://google.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">link</a></p>

If the linkify optoon is set to true on markdown-it, then the attributes will be applied to plain links as well.

var md = require('markdown-it')({
  linkify: true
})

md.use(mila, {
  target: '_blank',
  rel: 'noopener'
})

var html = md.render('foo https://google.com bar')
html // <p>foo <a href="https://google.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://google.com</a> bar</p>

Differences in browser. If you load script directly into the page, without a package system, the module will add itself globally as window.markdownitLinkAttributes.
