useClipboard

useClipboard is a custom hook that handles copying content to clipboard.

Arguments

The useClipboard hook takes the following arguments:

Name	Type	Required	Description
`text`	`string`	`false`	The text or value that is to be copied.
`optionsOrTimeout`	`number` or `object`	`false`	The timeout as a `number` or an `object` containing 2 properties: `timeout` and `format` for the MIME type. The timeout is measured in milliseconds and has a default of 1500ms.

Return value

The useClipboard hook returns an object with the following fields:

Name	Type	Default	Description
`value`	`string` or `undefined`		The copied value.
`setValue`	`function` or `undefined`		State action to change the copied value.
`onCopy`	`function`		Callback function to copy content.
`hasCopied`	`boolean`	`false`	If `true`, the content has been copied within the last `timeout` milliseconds. That is, it is set to true right after `onCopy` is called, and `false` after `timeout` has passed.
