terminal-clipboard
terminal-clipboard is a cross-platform clipboard library focused on strings copying and pasting for terminal applications:
- it's tested on linux, windows and Android (Termux)
- it doesn't handle other types of objects than strings
- it doesn't handle non UTF8 strings
Usage
terminal_clipboard::set_string("test").unwrap();
assert_eq!("test", terminal_clipboard::get_string().unwrap());
Supported platforms
The implementation is currently chosen from the "target_os" part of the compilation target.
Android (Termux)
The current implementation will defer to Termux API facilities to access the Android clipboard, and won't work if the Termux API isn't available at runtime.
If you know of solutions to access the Android clipboard without Termux, please open an issue.
Linux
If a unix-like target is detected and the "termux" feature isn't enabled, terminal-clipboard uses the x11-clipboard crate.
You'll need to have xorg-dev
and libxcb-composite0-dev
to compile.
On Debian and Ubuntu you can install them with
sudo apt install xorg-dev libxcb-composite0-dev
Windows
If the compilation target is "windows", terminal-clipboard uses the clipboard-win crate. If you're only interested in this platform, you should use this crate directly.
