set clipboard in javascript

To set the content of the clipboard in JavaScript, you can use the Clipboard API, specifically the writeText() method. This method takes a string parameter for the content to be copied to the clipboard.

Here's an example code snippet that shows how to copy text to the clipboard:

index.tsx
// Get the text to copy
const textToCopy = "Hello, world!";

// Use the Clipboard API to copy the text
navigator.clipboard.writeText(textToCopy)
  .then(() => {
    console.log("Text copied to clipboard");
  })
  .catch((error) => {
    console.error("Error copying text to clipboard:", error);
  });

In this code, we first define the text that we want to copy to the clipboard using a string variable textToCopy. We then use the navigator.clipboard.writeText() method to copy the text to the clipboard. This method returns a promise, so we can use .then() to handle the success case and .catch() to handle the error case.

Note that the navigator.clipboard API only works in secure contexts (i.e. HTTPS) on most browsers.
