Feature REquest : copy dl link in clipboard / .mkv video support in video player

[kirtapix]

Hi coderaiser,

Is it possible to add a "copy download link to clipboard" in the Menu ?
I'm not able to preview mkv file, do you is it possible to add it in the video player ? For now cloudcmd see it like a binary file.

Thanks in advance.

By the way : Happy new year 😀

Hi Kirtapix,

Copying download link - it's a very good idea for a Pull Request :). About mkv, it doesn't supported by browsers, so it's not possible for now.

Happy New year :)!

Could you please tell me why don't you use Download menu item?

[kirtapix]

I use download Menu item, but if I want to share a link with a friend, I have to start download with Download menu item, and copy the url from the address bar to give it to him.

@coderaiser It's actually just Firefox that can't play MKV files. Chromium and Edge native both support playing MKV files by declaring a "video/webm" MIME type.

In this case mkv video should just work in Chrome and Edge :)

copy the download link to the clipboard. This menu item is also useful for video player that support streaming.

'Copy File Path': () => {
    const filePath = `${window.location.href}${window.encodeURI(document.querySelector('.current-file > [data-name=js-name] > a').text)}`
    console.log(filePath)
},

@doublethinkio you can also use:

export default {
    'F6 - Copy URL to Current File': async ({DOM}) => {
        const {path} = DOM.CurrentInfo;
        const url = `${window.location.href}${path}`;
        const {default: clipboard}  = await import('https://cdn.skypack.dev/@cloudcmd/clipboard');
        
        await clipboard.writeText(url); 
    }
}

Just added to wiki.
