Basic Usage

Simply add the attribute data-clipboard-targetto an action button with the input element's idto get it working. Then add the clipboard JS to initialize it.

JAVASCRIPT
HTML

// Select elements
const target = document.getElementById('kt_clipboard_1');
const button = target.nextElementSibling;

// Init clipboard -- for more info, please read the offical documentation: https://clipboardjs.com/
var clipboard = new ClipboardJS(button, {
    target: target,
    text: function() {
        return target.value;
    }
});

// Success action handler
clipboard.on('success', function(e) {
    const currentLabel = button.innerHTML;

    // Exit label update when already in progress
    if(button.innerHTML === 'Copied!'){
        return;
    }

    // Update button label
    button.innerHTML = 'Copied!';

    // Revert button label after 3 seconds
    setTimeout(function(){
        button.innerHTML = currentLabel;
    }, 3000)
});

<div class="card card-bordered">

});

// Success action handler
clipboard.on('success', function (e) {
    var checkIcon = button.querySelector('.bi.bi-check');
    var svgIcon = button.querySelector('.svg-icon');

    // Exit check icon when already showing
    if (checkIcon) {
        return;
    }

    // Create check icon
    checkIcon = document.createElement('i');
    checkIcon.classList.add('bi');
    checkIcon.classList.add('bi-check');
    checkIcon.classList.add('fs-2x');

    target.classList.add(...classes);

    // Highlight button

        svgIcon.classList.remove('d-none');

        // Revert icon
        button.removeChild(checkIcon);

        // Remove target highlight
