Crossclip

Build Status Crates.io Documentation

Crossclip is a cross-platform Rust library for interfacing with the system clipboard. It has been tested on GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, Windows and Mac OSX.

The library is a fork of clipboard2, itself a fork of rust-clipboard

Prerequisites

On Linux you need the x11 library. On a Debian-y distribution, install it with something like

sudo apt install xorg-dev libxcb-shape0-dev libxcb-xfixes0-dev

Example

use crossclip::{Clipboard, SystemClipboard, Result};

fn main() -> Result<()> {
    let clipboard = SystemClipboard::new()?;
    clipboard.set_string_contents(String::from("Hello"))?;
    println!("{}", clipboard.get_string_contents()?);
}
