Last commit: [773c2dd2] Update Finnish translations (#6570)

Instantly access and manage your clipboard history.

README

GPaste is a clipboard management tool and application. This applet allows you to access and manage your clipboard history through an icon in the panel.

This is a completely re-written GPaste applet based on the gnome shell extension. It offers the following features:

Search for entries
Access the native GPaste GUI
Support for multiple histories
Manually add entries to the history
Unlimited instances

Installation

The easiest way to install any applet is in Cinnamon Settings -> Applets. Just click on the Download tab and search for "gpaste"

After installing this applet, you will need to install the Gpaste application and daemon using your software manager.

For Linux Mint or other Ubuntu-based distros, install the packages "gpaste-2" and "gir1.2-gpaste-2" or "gpaste" and "gir1.2-gpaste-1.0" on older versions.
For Arch-based distros, install the package "gpaste".
Other distros: Check if there's a package for GPaste. If there isn't, check the GitHub page linked below.

Finally, make sure that the GPaste daemon is running. To do this, you can either reboot your computer or restart cinnamon (right click on the panel and click "Troubleshoot" -> "Restart Cinnamon").

I love this applet, but it does not work on cinnamon 6.4.0

Um ótimo APPLETS para se usar, grava corretamente os textos além de ter o histórico para consulta e posterior utilização. A great APPLETS to use, it correctly records text and has a history for reference and later use.

Not very useful for me. The keyboard shortcuts in the main app don't work and cannot be changed at all, the only shortcut available in the applet shows the history near the tray, rather than near the cursor or where the focused text area is. A clipboard manager (such as copyq, arsclip in windows etc) should show the history right near the cursor, and, upon selecting an item, it should automatically past it in the active textbox.

Is this a fork of https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/779/clipboard-indicator/ ??

Since there's no info whatsoever about this app: "GPaste is a clipboard management system with a fully DBus-based daemon, a CLI client and a gtk+ tray icon. A simple CLI interface is provided: gpaste-client, with a subcommand: gpaste-client ui which makes the graphical tool pop up. GPaste is free and open source software."

UnluckyLuke-1 year ago

It works fine. I wish there was more settings like: The a setting for the number of entries it saves. Permanent entries.

It would be nice if this page gave some clue of what the applet is for, what it does, something like that.

muchas gracias. (Thanks a lot)

if the applet says "gpaste not installed", follow the Readme.md from https://github.com/Feuerfuchs/GPaste-Reloaded-Cinnamon-Applet/tree/master/gpaste-reloaded%40feuerfuchs.eu: If you use an Arch-based distro, that means you have to install the package "gpaste". If you use a Ubuntu-based distro, install the packages "gpaste", "gpaste-applet" and "gir1.2-gpaste-4.0". ( You can skip "gpaste-applet" if it doesn't exist. ) Other distros: Check if there's a package for GPaste. If there isn't, check the GitHub page linked below. then restart cinnamon, it should work now.

Correction... my curl fetch of the .js file retrieved the whole HTML document, not just the javascript. When I copied the actual code info GPasteHistoryItem.js and restart Cinnamon, GPaste reloaded starts and I can see the strings in my paste history again. Whew.

wiscodisco-2 years ago

I was using the hack by pms967 that replaces the stock GPasteHistoryItem.js with the specified file. With the recent update I can no longer see the strings in the list, I could, however, see the history with the main GPaste program. I tried the pms967 hack and now GPaste Reloaded won't even start. So I'm without the important functionality this applet used to provide. What can I do to help?

pcspecialist-2 years ago

Doesn't work in LMDE 5

Fedor Elizarov-3 years ago

imxys-2 years ago

Worked for me. Thanks!

Fedor Elizarov-3 years ago

Not work. gpaste installed but applet sey "gpaste not installed"

Tassos Diamantidis-3 years ago

The last 2 weeks, history is not shown or history items are shown empty. History is shown correctly on GPaste App.

Kamyar Nemati-3 years ago

Worked for me. Thanks!

pms967-3 years ago

Update: replacing the file: ~/.local/share/cinnamon/applets/gpaste-reloaded@feuerfuchs.eu/GPasteHistoryItem.js with the (old) one available here: https://github.com/Feuerfuchs/GPaste-Reloaded-Cinnamon-Applet/tree/master/gpaste-reloaded%40feuerfuchs.eu seems to fix the problem.

erwinzer0-2 years ago

Can't possibly know that. Thanks a lot

Mostafa Lavaei-2 years ago

Great! But I wonder why the maintainer does not fix it after over one year. Gpaste is one of my favorite applets but unfortunately does not maintain activity.

Pointer666-3 years ago

Worked for me too. Thank you.

Tassos Diamantidis-3 years ago

Worked for me too, thanks a lot

wendess3n-3 years ago

This worked for me. Thanks

SandyMental-3 years ago

SandyMental-3 years ago

better said, after replacing with the old one the history items are shown empty -

pms967-3 years ago

Same here, after upgrade from Mint 20.1 to 20.2

unclesnr-3 years ago

Having the same issue.

shamnad-sherief-3 years ago

can't select the 'bold' item. every time i need to search from the history

danfarias07-3 years ago

Just broke my Cinnamon. Had to timeshift and lost a ton of work. You guys should really consider removing it until it's fixed

Vulcanraven-3 years ago

Next time switch to terminal Ctrl + Alt + F2 Applets are stored in ~/.local/share/cinnamon/applets Delete the gpaste-reloaded@feuerfuchs.eu directory in there. So no need for timeshifting.

If you get "GPaste is not installed" then you can "apt-get install gir1.2-gpaste-1.0" to get it working

petrus2586-3 years ago

Effectivement, cela fonctionne après . J'ai rajouté ce paquet à "gpaste" et "libgpaste11" que Synpatic m'avait proposé par défaut. J'ai ensuite refait mon installation d'applet puis relancé Cinnamon et... j'ai eu le plaisir d'avoir l'icône Gpaste apparaître. Grand merci

gggirlgeek-3 years ago

Thank you!! You're the best. Worked great using Gpaste v3.36.3 from the PPA and Mint 20.10.

ak1dd-4 years ago

Doesn't work on Linux Mint 19.3 "GPaste is not installed" when you try to invoke.

eblis-5 years ago

This has just stopped working in Linux Mint 19.1 :(

shidi-6 years ago

Funktioniert nicht unter ubuntu 16.04 mit cinnamon

Tim Abell-6 years ago

Breaks your entire desktop with no path to fixing it. DO NOT INSTALL https://github.com/linuxmint/cinnamon-spices-applets/issues/1757

moretocome-6 years ago

`sudo apt install gpaste gir1.2-gpaste-1.0` then it works. I just installed it :)

EvGrizli-3 years ago

Спасибо тебе! Я так сделал. Работает.

claudiux-6 years ago

Very usefull. But at install, it freezes Cinnamon. A force logout is necessary. At next login, it's working fine. (On Linux Mint 18.2 with Cinnamon 3.4.6.)

Zverko Veselic-7 years ago

Wow. Adding this to the panel sends my Cinnamon into a death spiral. It crashes, restarts only to instantly crash again etc...

Een Edinson-7 years ago

If you have "Gpaste is not installed" error when adding the applet to a panel even when you have gpaste already installed, you may also need to install gir1.2-gpaste-4.0 package. Somehow that package is not pulled when you install gpaste from repository.

Sam-7 years ago

What all packages are needed to get this running? The message just mentions gpaste, and I already installed that, but it doesn't work.

SvenRieke-7 years ago

I like Diodon, it offers hotkey and much more. It's not an applet, so it's your decision of what you want to use.

Rodrigo Barros Bernardino-7 years ago

I really liked it!! But is there any war to assign a keyboard shortcut to "show the applet", so I just press it and I can search through my history, for example? Thanks!

Feuerfuchs-7 years ago

Right now there isn't a native confoguration for keyboard shortcuts, but you can assign a keyboard shortcut to the following command to make the applet appear: 'gpaste-client show-history'

Feuerfuchs-7 years ago

(I mean, assign that command using Cinnamon's keyboard settings)
