A library to access the clipboard (copy/paste) for server and browser

### Install

Add `clippy` to dependencies/dev_dependencies in in your pubspec.yaml

### Usage

#### Server

In the server Clippy supports writing and reading from the clipboard. It uses system tools for this:

- On linux uses `xsel` (Install if needed)

- On Mac uses `pbcopy`/`pbpaste`

- On windows it embeds a copy/paste tool [win-clipboard](https://github.com/sindresorhus/win-clipboard)

```dart

import 'package:clippy/server.dart' as clippy;

main() async {

  // Write to clipboard

  await clippy.write('https://github.com/andresaraujo/clippy');

  

  // Read from clipboard

  final clipboard = await clippy.read();  

}

```

See [example/server](/example/server)

#### Browser

In the browser Clippy supports writing and listening to paste events.

```dart

import 'package:clippy/browser.dart' as clippy;

main() async {

  

  // Write a string to clipboard

  await clippy.write('https://github.com/andresaraujo/clippy');

  

  // Write text from an element to clipboard

  await clippy.write(element);

  

  // Write current selection to clipboard

  await clippy.write();

  

  // Listen to paste event

  clippy.onPaste.listen((text) => print('OnPaste: $text'));

  

}

```
