majido / clipper Goto Github PK

Can you put an Apache 2.0 license on this project please?

I enhanced it to read a text file, this allows me to send multiple-pages into the clipboard easily. It's not really clean for a pull request - you decide, code is here: https://github.com/RoundSparrow/clipper

Thank you for the app.

after run am broadcast -a clipper.get，can not get the clipper content, the detail as:
HWNXT:/ $ am broadcast -a clipper.get
Broadcasting: Intent { act=clipper.get flg=0x400000 }
Broadcast completed: result=0

adb shell am broadcast -a clipper.get
Broadcasting: Intent { act=clipper.get flg=0x400000 }
Broadcast completed: result=0, data=""

this is what I got when I send clipper to the background

this is the result of my execution under the cmd terminal:

It took me some time to figure out that the service wasn't started automatically after installation. And some more time to figure out that I had to run

am startservice ca.zgrs.clipper/.ClipboardService

to do so. After that I could use the broadcast commands and have them function.

Suggestion: make service auto-start and/or document this command in the README.

Using \n does not work to create a new line. Is this a bug? It would be EXTREMELY useful for me!

Apparently it doesn't work on a Google Pixel running Android Pie (Bootlegger's ROM).

Broadcasts are sent but result is 0 regardless of setting or getting.
Might be PEBCAK, will report back.

Are you still maintaining thiss app, @majido? The last release was more than 4 years ago, so was the last commit. Does it still work on recent Android versions?

PS: while on it, what license is this project using?

when the app is open
adb shell am startservice ca.zgrs.clipper/.ClipboardService success

when the app is unopen
adb shell am startservice ca.zgrs.clipper/.ClipboardService filed
it show Error: Not found; no service started.

how can I use the app when app is unopen

It would be useful to make a release and provide a downloadable apk (you can add binaries to releases on Github).

Building for me was not as simple as ./configure && make && make install (needed to download Android and API 10, modify pom.xml since it overrides ANDROID_HOME, update version of android-maven-plugin to 3.6.1 because older ones didn't find aapt properly and much newer ones didn't work with my system-provided maven version).

I just updated my Pixel 3 XL to Android 10 and now Clipper won't return data from the clipboard.
Issuing the adb command adb shell am broadcast -a clipper.get always returns result=0, data="".

I assume this is related to the recent Android security changes that limits clipboard access except to system apps: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/123461156

Is there any more information regarding this issue, or any workaround being considered?

How to do it

Setting Cyrillic text (cp1251) causes incorrect lines to be received in the clipboard

cat /sdcard/cyrilic-cp1251.txt|am broadcast -a clipper.set -e text "$(cat -)" >/dev/null 2>&1

After setting the cyrillic text (cp1251), I get strange lines on the clipboard :

ʨਫ먶�NDROID_ASSETS=/system/app

What's this ? Part of set or env variables?
