# rclipboard: clipboard.js for R/Shiny applications

[clipboard.js](https://clipboardjs.com/) is a super light javascript framework,

which provides copy-to-clipboard functionality using HTML5. The simple `rclipboard`

R package is simple and leverages `clipboard.js` functionality to provide a

reactive copy-to-clipboard UI button component, called `rclipButton`, and a

reactive copy-to-clipboard UI link component, called `rclipLink`, for

[Shiny](https://shiny.posit.co/) R applications.

While `rclipButton` and `rclipLink` will work in applications that use native 

`shiny` UI constructors, the code below illustrates a marginally more complex

example in which a tooltip is displayed when hovering on top of the button thanks

to the use of UI constructors from the `bslib` package.

```R

library(shiny)

library(bslib)

library(rclipboard)

# The UI

ui <- bslib::page_fluid(

  

  rclipboardSetup(),

  

  # Add a text input

  textInput("copytext", "Copy this:", "Zlika!"),

  

  # UI ouputs for the copy-to-clipboard buttons

  uiOutput("clip"),

  

  # A text input for testing the clipboard content.

  textInput("paste", "Paste here:")

  

)

# The server

server <- function(input, output) {

  

  # Add clipboard buttons

  output$clip <- renderUI({

    rclipButton(

      inputId = "clipbtn",

      label = "rclipButton Copy",

      clipText = input$copytext, 

      icon = icon("clipboard"),

      tooltip = "Click me... I dare you!",

      placement = "top",

      options = list(delay = list(show = 800, hide = 100), trigger = "hover")

    )

  })

  

}

shinyApp(ui = ui, server = server)

```
