*nvim_clipboard.txt* For Nvim. {Nvim}
NVIM REFERENCE MANUAL by Thiago de Arruda
Clipboard integration for Nvim *nvim-clipboard*
By default, Nvim has no connection to the system clipboard. Eventually that
will be implemented by UI programs, which connect to Nvim via |msgpack-rpc|.
Even though externalized UIs are not available yet, there's a workaround that
enables clipboard usage through the python interface(which also uses
|msgpack-rpc| and consequently can implement the clipboard methods required
by Nvim):
- Make sure you follow the setup instructions in |nvim-python-quickstart|.
- Install the `xerox` python module:
>
$ pip install xerox
<
- Create a ~/.vim/pythonx/nvim_clipboard.py file with the following contents:
>
import xerox
class NvimClipboard(object):
def __init__(self, vim):
self.provides = ['clipboard']
def clipboard_get(self):
return xerox.paste().split('\n')
def clipboard_set(self, lines):
xerox.copy(u'\n'.join([line.decode('utf-8') for line in lines]))
<
This should enable the '+' and '*' registers. As an optional step, set the
'unnamedclip' option to transparently access clipboard using the unnamed
register. If you use the same |vimrc| for both Vim and Nvim, make sure you
only set the option when `has('nvim')` is true:
>
if has('nvim')
set unnamedclip
endif
