I often found myself wanting to share an article by url, and found a bit cumbersome to show it in a box like it’s now. Can we have, at some unspecified point in the future, some way to copy it directly to the clipboard?
Feature request: copy article address
why not make a plugin? also copying things to clipboard is not that simple, i think.
I don’t know, the easier way should be to just shift+rightclick on the article title and the use the browser contextual menu.
but it should be cool to have this directly in the interface.
I created or copied (I don’t remember now) a plugin that adds the link to the article footer so I could easily use the browser’s context menu to open or copy the link without conflicting with the tt-rss context menu on the title.
Hopefully I won’t annoy anyone by including it here in its entirety:
<?php
class printurl extends Plugin {
private $host;
function about() {
return array(1.0,
"prints the URL of the article in the button row on the left side",
"user",
false);
}
function init($host) {
$this->host = $host;
$host->add_hook($host::HOOK_ARTICLE_LEFT_BUTTON, $this);
}
function hook_article_left_button($line) {
$article_link = $line["link"];
$rv = "<a href=\"{$article_link}\">Link</a> ";
return $rv;
}
function api_version() {
return 2;
}
}
