README

rust-clipboard

rust-clipboard is a cross-platform library for getting and setting the contents of the OS-level clipboard. It has been tested on Windows, Mac OSX, and GNU/Linux. It is used in Mozilla Servo.

Example

xample() {
let mut ctx = ClipboardContext::new().unwrap();
println!("{}", ctx.get_contents());
ctx.set_contents(&"some string");

API

ew() -> Result<ClipboardContext, Box<Error>>
et_contents(&ClipboardContext) -> Result<String, Box<Error>>
et_contents(&mut ClipboardContext, String) -> Result<(), Box<Error>>

ClipboardContext is an opaque struct that is defined in different ways based on the OS via conditional compilation.

License

Since the x11 backend contains code derived from xclip (which is GPLv2), rust-clipboard must currently be treated as GPLv2. I plan to rewrite x11-clipboard.rs by strictly referencing the ICCCM standard, and relicense to Apache2. All the other code in rust-clipboard may be treated as Apache2.
