README

Enables a clipboard API to get, set and clear the clipboard on various platforms (currently Windows and OSX).

Platform Support

Platform	Support	Reads with	Writes with
Windows	Yes ✅	Powershell script	clip.exe
OSX	Yes ✅	pbpaste	pbcopy
Linux	NO ❎

Unsupported platforms will use a MockClipboardApi api, that will mimick the clipboard, but won't actually get/set/clear anything apart from its local state.

Installation

composer require jalsoedesign/cli-clipboard

Usage

Get the current clipboard contents

// Instantiate the clipboard class
$clipboard = \jalsoedesign\CliClipboard\Clipboard::instance();

// Get the current contents of the clipboard
$contents = $clipboard->get();

// Print the content
echo $contents;

Set the current clipboard contents

// Instantiate the clipboard class
$clipboard = \jalsoedesign\CliClipboard\Clipboard::instance();

// Set the current contents of the clipboard to "foobar"
$clipboard->set('foobar');

Clears the current clipboard contents

$clipboard = \jalsoedesign\CliClipboard\Clipboard::instance();
