clipboard: Clipboard

In xaringanExtra: Extras and Extensions for 'xaringan' Slides

Clipboard

Description

Add a "Copy Code" button for one-click code chunk copying.

Usage

use_clipboard(
  button_text = "Copy Code",
  success_text = "Copied!",
  error_text = "Press Ctrl+C to Copy",
  selector = NULL,
  minified = TRUE
)

html_dependency_clipboardjs(minified = TRUE)

html_dependency_clipboard()

Arguments

button_text, success_text, error_text	Text (or HTML) shown in the copy button by default (button), on copy success, or in the event of an error.
selector	The CSS selector used to identify the elements that will receive the copy code button. If NULL, the extension will automatically choose the selector for xaringan slides or general R Markdown. The CSS selector should identify the parent container that holds the content to be copied. The copy button will be added as the last element in this container, and then the text of every element inside the container identified by the selector, minus the copy button text, is copied to the clipboard.
minified	Should the minified clipboardjs dependency be used?

Details

To add clipboard to your xaringan presentation or R Markdown document, add the following code chunk to your slides’ R Markdown file.

```{r xaringanExtra-clipboard, echo=FALSE}
xaringanExtra::use_clipboard()
```

You can also customize the text that is shown by default when hovering over a code chunk with the button_text argument. Use success_text to specify the text shown when the copy action works, or error_text for the text shown when the copy action fails. If the copy action fails, the text will still be selected, so the user can still manually press Ctrl+C to copy the code chunk.

These options accept raw HTML strings, so you can achieve an icon-only appearance using FontAwesome icons:

```{r xaringanExtra-clipboard, echo=FALSE}
htmltools::tagList(
  xaringanExtra::use_clipboard(
    button_text = "<i class=\"fa fa-clipboard\"></i>",
    success_text = "<i class=\"fa fa-check\" style=\"color: #90BE6D\"></i>",
    error_text = "<i class=\"fa fa-times-circle\" style=\"color: #F94144\"></i>"
  ),
  rmarkdown::html_dependency_font_awesome()
)
```

Value

An htmltools::tagList() with the HTML dependencies required for clipboard.

Functions

• use_clipboard: Adds clipboard to your xaringan slides or R Markdown HTML output.

• html_dependency_clipboardjs: Returns an htmltools::htmlDependency() with the clipboard.js library. For expert use.

• html_dependency_clipboard: Returns an htmltools::htmlDependency() with the clipboard dependencies for use in xaringan and R Markdown documents. Most users will want to use use_clipboard() instead.
