clipboard

Access to the Mac clipboard (which it calls a pasteboard) in Go, using native APIs, not pbcopy/pbpaste.

The Mac pasteboard stores items with a type (string, image, url, etc). This library currently reads & writes only strings.

Import

import 	"github.com/huckridgesw/clipboard"

Copy & Paste

// write a string to the pasteboard -- "copy"
clipboard.Set("a string")

// read a string from the pasteboard -- "paste"
if s, ok := clipboard.Get(); ok {
  // do something with s
}

Get will only fail (return with ok == false) if there are no strings in the pasteboard, or your program runs out of memory and malloc returns NULL.
