Today, I came across a python library called Pyperclip that provides a cross-platform Python module for copying and pasting text to the clipboard.
Required Packages
Install pyperclip via pip
pip install pyperclip
How to access Clipboard using Python
>> import pyperclip
>> pyperclip.copy("Hello world! This is copied to clipboard via pyperclip")
>> # Now we can paste the text above using ctrl+v or command+v
>> pyperclip.paste()
# Using this paste method we can get the text which is present in the Clipboard
You may get an error message that says: “Pyperclip could not find a copy/paste mechanism for your system. Please see https://pyperclip.readthedocs.io/en/latest/introduction.html#not-implemented-error for how to fix this.“”
