Overview ¶
This is a very basic example for verification purpose that demonstrates how the golang.design/x/clipboard can interact with macOS/Linux/Windows/Android/iOS system clipboard.
The gclip GUI application writes a string to the system clipboard periodically then reads it back and renders it if possible.
Because of the system limitation, on mobile devices, only string data is supported at the moment. Hence, one must use clipboard.FmtText. Other supplied formats result in a panic.
This example is intentded as cross platform application. To build it, one must use gomobile (https://golang.org/x/mobile). You may follow the instructions provided in the GoMobile's wiki page: https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/Mobile.
- For desktop:
go build -o gclip-gui
- For Android:
gomobile build -v -target=android -o gclip-gui.apk
- For iOS:
gomobile build -v -target=ios -bundleid design.golang.gclip-gui.app
