Kopya


Warning

This is an alpha version. I am using it daily though.


Intro

This is a headless/daemon-only clipboard manager1. By itself, it's not useful, without a client.

It exposes a REST API over HTTP. You can list, search, and delete entries.

You can read my introductory blog post2.

Features

  • Store your clipboard entries over time
  • Limit how many are stored, with a rolling clean-up window
  • Private Mode: Disable clipboard monitoring, and optionally re-enable after a set time, or at and end time
  • Optional: Run at login
  • Optional: Backup hourly

Config

There must be a config file at $USER/.config/kopya/config.toml, with contents like the following:

run-at-login = true
max-entries = 10000000
port = 9090
backup = true

Install

Use $ just release install or download a release.

Clients

  • Raycast extension: WIP
