[Koha-devel] Improving usability of Tools > Upload feature w/ Copy Link button

[dcook at prosentient.com.au]

Hi all,

 

Just sharing that I've posted a patch that adds a "Copy link" button the
Tools > Upload feature, which makes it easier to link to files that have
been uploaded into Koha. 

 

For example, uploading a photo of the library via "Tools > Upload" and then
copying the link and pasting it into OpacMainuserBlock in an img element.

 

The patch shows the file URL in a modal so you can manually copy and paste,
plus it uses feature detection to see if it can use the Clipboard API
(available in modern browsers like Chrome, Firefox, Edge - but not newer IE)
to just copy it directly to your browser clipboard.

Would love to get some feedback on this one.
