Copying to clipboard using vuejs2

What is wrong with the below code for copying to clipboard using vue and vue-clipboard?

<button v-clipboard:copy="message">Copy</button>

data: {
 message:"text to copy"
}

});

https://jsfiddle.net/29zhwcdf/2/

Data is not being copied to clipboard.

Solution

  • Make sure to use: Vue.use(vueClipboards), before instantiating your Vue application.

    Working example:

    Vue.use(vueClipboards); // Add this before 'new Vue({..})'
var apptest = new Vue({
  el: "#apptest",
  data: {
    message: "text to copy"
  },
  methods: {
    handleSuccess(e) {
      console.log(e);
    },
    handleError(e) {
      console.log(e);
    },
  }
});
