Breaking change: requires calling with `wl-paste -t text --watch clipman store`. As a side-effect, enable primary clipboard support: `wl-paste -p -t text --watch clipman store --histpath="~/.local/share/clipman-primary.json`! Closes #12

# 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](https://golang.org/doc/install), 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](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/clipman/).
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
Run the binary in your Sway session by adding `exec wl-paste -t text --watch clipman store` (or `exec wl-paste -t text --watch clipman store 1>> PATH/TO/LOGFILE 2>&1 &` to log errors) at the beginning of your config.
|
|
For primary clipboard support, also add `exec wl-paste -p -t text --watch clipman store --histpath="~/.local/share/clipman-primary.json`.
|
|
|
|
To query the history and select items, run the binary as `clipman pick`. You can assign it to a keybinding: `bindsym $mod+h exec clipman pick`.
|
|
For primary clipboard support, `clipman pick --histpath="~/.local/share/clipman-primary.json`.
|
|
|
|
For more options: `clipman -h`.
