Reactive Clipboard API. Provides the ability to respond to clipboard commands (cut, copy, and paste) as well as to asynchronously read from and write to the system clipboard. Access to the contents of the clipboard is gated behind the Permissions API. Without user permission, reading or altering the clipboard contents is not permitted.

Demo

Clipboard Permission: read prompt | write granted

Current copied: none

Difference from useClipboard

useClipboard is a "text-only" function, while useClipboardItems is a ClipboardItem based function. You can use useClipboardItems to copy any content supported by ClipboardItem.

Usage

js
import { useClipboardItems } from '@vueuse/core'

const mime = 'text/html'
const source = ref([
  new ClipboardItem({
    [mime]: new Blob(['\'<b>HTML content</b>\'', { type: mime }]),
  })
])

const { content, copy, copied, isSupported } = useClipboardItems({ source })
vue
<template>
  <div v-if="isSupported">
    <button @click="copy(source)">
      <!-- by default, `copied` will be reset in 1.5s -->
      <span v-if="!copied">Copy</span>
      <span v-else>Copied!</span>
    </button>
    <p>
      Current copied: <code>{{ text || 'none' }}</code>
    </p>
  </div>
  <p v-else>
    Your browser does not support Clipboard API
  </p>
</template>

Type Declarations

typescript
export interface UseClipboardItemsOptions<Source>
  extends ConfigurableNavigator {
  /**
   * Enabled reading for clipboard
   *
   * @default false
   */
  read?: boolean
  /**
   * Copy source
   */
  source?: Source
  /**
   * Milliseconds to reset state of `copied` ref
   *
   * @default 1500
   */
  copiedDuring?: number
}
export interface UseClipboardItemsReturn<Optional> {
  isSupported: Ref<boolean>
  content: ComputedRef<ClipboardItems>
  copied: ComputedRef<boolean>
  copy: Optional extends true
    ? (content?: ClipboardItems) => Promise<void>
    : (text: ClipboardItems) => Promise<void>
}
/**
 * Reactive Clipboard API.
 *
 * @see https://vueuse.org/useClipboardItems
 * @param options
 */
export declare function useClipboardItems(
  options?: UseClipboardItemsOptions<undefined>,
): UseClipboardItemsReturn<false>
export declare function useClipboardItems(
  options: UseClipboardItemsOptions<MaybeRefOrGetter<ClipboardItems>>,
): UseClipboardItemsReturn<true>
