Clipman

A basic clipboard manager for Wayland, with support for persisting copy buffers after an application exits.

Installing

Requirements:

• a windows manager that uses wlr-data-control, like Sway and other wlroots-based WMs.
• wl-clipboard >= 2.0
• dmenu or rofi

Install go, add $GOPATH/bin to your path, then run go get github.com/yory8/clipman OR run go install inside this folder.

Archlinux users can find a PKGBUILD here.

Usage

Run the binary in your Sway session by adding exec clipman -d (or exec clipman -d 1>> PATH/TO/LOGFILE 2>&1 & to log errors) at the beginning of your config.

To query the history and select items, run the binary as clipman -s. You can assign it to a keybinding: bindsym $mod+h exec clipman -s.

For more options: clipman -h.
