所有链接的自动 {target=_blank}

Question

I have found this script that can add the blank feature to each link in html.

(function() {
    var hostname = window.location.hostname;
    var new_tab = true;
    var set_icon = true;
    for (var links = document.links, i = 0, a; a = links[i]; i++) {
        if (a.hostname !== hostname) {
            if (new_tab)
                a.target = '_blank';
            if (set_icon)
                a.innerHTML +=
                    '<i class="fa fa-external-link fa-1 external-link-margin" />';
        }
    }
})();

Is there any way how I can make it work automatically on html generation form md files in Pelican static blog engine? So that it is added to every html file and modifies the links.

I found a Python-Markdown extension Phuker/markdown_link_attr_modifier which does exactly what you want. In fact, it can be configured to add any attribute to generated <a> tags.

According to the readme, just run pip command to install it, and add it to MARKDOWN variable in the pelicanconf.py file as an extension. I tried in my Pelican blog, and it works good.
