[PATCH v5 6/6] line-range-highlight: copy URL to clipboard UI

Andy Green andy at warmcat.com
Tue Jun 26 13:25:45 CEST 2018


Clicking on the line numbers to control the highlight
now causes a clipboard icon to appear to the left of
the line for 5s.

Clicking this will copy the highlight URL to the
clipboard, and cause the icon to grow, blur and
fade to acknowledge the click.

After 5s the clipboard icon will fade out... you can
still collect the URL from the browser URL bar.

Clicking on other line  number links will remove any
clipboard icon and create a new one with a new 5s
lifetime.

This is an entirely clientside implementation in
cgit.css and cgit.js only.  The clipboard symbol is
from unicode.

Tested on Linux Chrome 67 + Firefox 60.
