markdown-it-external-links

Plugin for markdown-it that adds CSS classes to links that fall outside of the specified internal domain(s).

Example input:

- [Internal Link A](/)
- [Internal Link B](//example.org)
- [Internal Link C](http://example.org)
- [Internal Link D](other-page.html)
- [Internal Link E](.././other-page.html)
- [External Link A](//example.com)
- [External Link B](http://example.com)

Output (without internal link class - default):

<ul>
  <li><a href="/">Internal Link A</a></li>
  <li><a href="//example.org">Internal Link B</a></li>
  <li><a href="http://example.org">Internal Link C</a></li>
  <li><a href="other-page.html">Internal Link D</a></li>
  <li><a href=".././other-page.html">Internal Link E</a></li>
  <li><a href="//example.com" class="external-link">External Link A</a></li>
  <li><a href="http://example.com" class="external-link">External Link B</a></li>
</ul>

Output (with internal link class):

<ul>
  <li><a href="/" class="internal-link">Internal Link A</a></li>
  <li><a href="//example.org" class="internal-link">Internal Link B</a></li>
  <li><a href="http://example.org" class="internal-link">Internal Link C</a></li>
