About

For use with Vue 3 and the Composition API. I decided to keep in line with the Vue 3 spirit and not make a directive out of this (if you want a vue directive, please make a pull request). I think it makes more sense and provides more clarity to just use this as a method in the setup() function.

Keep it simple.

Usage

Simple

<template lang="html">
  <button @click="copy">Copy!</button>
</template>

<script lang="ts">
import { defineComponent } from '@vue/composition-api'
import useClipboard from 'vue-clipboard3'

export default defineComponent({
  setup() {
    const { toClipboard } = useClipboard()

    const copy = async () => {
      try {
        await toClipboard('Any text you like')
        console.log('Copied to clipboard')
      } catch (e) {
        console.error(e)
      }
    }

    return { copy }
  }
})
</script>

With ref

<template lang="html">
  <div>
    <input type="text" v-model="text">
    <button @click="copy">Copy!</button>
  </div>
</template>

<script lang="ts">
import { defineComponent, ref } from '@vue/composition-api'
import useClipboard from 'vue-clipboard3'

export default defineComponent({
  setup() {
    const { toClipboard } = useClipboard()

    const text = ref('')

    const copy = async () => {
      try {
        await toClipboard(text.value)
        console.log('Copied to clipboard')
      } catch (e) {
        console.error(e)
      }
    }

    return { copy, text }
  }
})
</script>

API

useClipboard(options: Options)

interface Options {
  /** Fixes IE by appending element to body. Defaults to true. */
  appendToBody: boolean
}

returns an object with a single key: toClipboard

toClipboard(text: string, container?: HTMLElement)

requires that you pass in at least one argument that is a string. This is the text to be copied to the clipboard. The second optional argument is a html element that will be used as the container internally when using clipboard.js.
