Clapboard is a simple clipboard manager for Wayland, built in Rust. It saves a history of your clipboard content, and lets you paste things you've copied earlier. It also lets you configure "favorite" pastes for strings you need often. For example, you can set favorites with your address, phone number, email address etc - and they'll all become just a few clicks away. It supports all mime-types and it is agnostic regarding to your choice of menu system (e.g. dmenu, tofi, wofi, rofl etc). You can even easily share your clipboard history across devices.

If you're using Sway, just add this to your ~/.config/sway/config:
exec clapboard --record
- Optionally, bind some key to run
clapboard. I'm binding the Favorites key in Sway like this:
bindsym XF86Favorites exec clapboard
To share the clipboard content between devices, use a tool like Syncthing to sync the Clapboard cache folder (usually at ~/.cache/clapboard).
Below is the default Clapboard configuration. If you want to change it, create a similar file at ~/.config/clapboard/config.toml
launcher = [ "tofi", "--fuzzy-match=true", "--prompt-text=clap: " ]
history_size = 50
[favorites]
# You can add your favorite clipboard pastes here like this:
# "some key" = "some value"
