Thanks for raising this issue @Tommimon. I'm not sure what is causing the bug but I can suggest a couple of things to troubleshoot:
nix-env -f channel:nixpkgs-unstable -iA clipse
command instead to see if that changes the behaviourclipse --listen-shell
and keep this terminal window open. While that window is open try, try to copy something in the usual way and reopoen the TUI to see if this helps.config/clipse
dir for an err_log.txt
file containing any debugging infoIf the above gets you nowhere, it sounds like an issue with how the github.com/atotto/clipboard
library (used for capturing system clipboard input) is interacting with your system, which we can look more into if needed.
It may also be worth attempting to run the app within a nix shell using nix shell github:NixOS/nixpkgs#clipse
to see if that helps also.
Let me know how you get on!
have also discovered issues when a user does not have one of the following installed:
Do you have wl-clipboard in your packages? that may be the fix here. I'm updating the readme advice to make others aware.
I can confirm adding wl-clipboard
to environment.systemPackages
solved the problem, thanks!
I wonder if it is possible to add wl-clipboard
as a dependency in the nix package so nobody needs to remember to install it.
Maybe an option to specify the package is needed in case you want xclip
or xsel
instead.
Thanks for confirming @Tommimon
Agree - deffo gonna look into the best way to present this in terms of the nix package, plans also to integrate wl-clip into the binary itself so a separate install wouldn't be required. on the list for the next release :)
Description
I just tried this program but it's not working for me. I can launch the background process and show the TUI but there is no entry.
I tried to copy from many applications but nothing is ever added to the history. I can add entries with
clipse -a something
but then I experience the issue the other way around: once I select the entry I'm unable to paste it. It looks like clipboard history and system clipboard can't communicate at all.I can tell the background process is not crashing because a process named
clipse
is always visible withtop
during all my tests.Setup
I'm reporting only the relevant parts of the configuration files.
