Clipboard
Clipboard management plugin for Cordova/PhoneGap that supports iOS, Android
Original Plugin: https://github.com/VersoSolutions/CordovaClipboard
We forked and updated this plugin to support HTML content copy & paste for both Android and iOS platform according to our needs
- Support added to copy html content
- Support added to copy/paste plain text from copied html content.
Usage
Install the plugin using the CLI, for instance with PhoneGap:
cordova plugin add https://github.com/Anuj-Raghuvanshi/cordova-clipboard-plugin
The plugin creates the object cordova.plugins.clipboard
with the methods copy(text, onSuccess, onError)
and paste(onSuccess, onError)
.
Example:
var text = "Hello World!";
cordova.plugins.clipboard.copy(text);
cordova.plugins.clipboard.paste(function (text) { alert(text); });
Notes

- The plugin only works with text content.
Windows Phone
- The Windows Phone platform doesn't allow applications to read the content of the clipboard. Using the
paste
method will return an error.

is larger or equal to 11 in AndroidManifest.xml
.
