`tp.system.clipboard()`

Retrieves the clipboard's content.

Examples

// Clipboard
<% tp.system.clipboard() %>

`tp.system.prompt(prompt_text?: string, default_value?: string, throw_on_cancel: boolean = false, multiline?: boolean = false)`

Spawns a prompt modal and returns the user's input.

Arguments

prompt_text: Text placed above the input field.
default_value: A default value for the input field.
throw_on_cancel: Throws an error if the prompt is canceled, instead of returning a null value.
multiline: If set to true, the input field will be a multiline textarea. Defaults to false.

Examples

// Prompt
<% tp.system.prompt("Please enter a value") %>
// Prompt with default value
<% tp.system.prompt("What is your mood today?", "happy") %>
// Multiline prompt
<% tp.system.prompt("What is your mood today?", null, false, true) %>

`tp.system.suggester(text_items: string[] ⎮ ((item: T) => string), items: T[], throw_on_cancel: boolean = false, placeholder: string = "", limit?: number = undefined)`

Spawns a suggester prompt and returns the user's chosen item.

Arguments

text_items: Array of strings representing the text that will be displayed for each item in the suggester prompt. This can also be a function that maps an item to its text representation.
items: Array containing the values of each item in the correct order.
throw_on_cancel: Throws an error if the prompt is canceled, instead of returning a null value.
placeholder: Placeholder string of the prompt.
limit: Limit the number of items rendered at once (useful to improve performance when displaying large lists).

Examples

// Suggester
<% tp.system.suggester(["Happy", "Sad", "Confused"], ["Happy", "Sad", "Confused"]) %>
// Suggester with mapping function (same as above example)
<% tp.system.suggester((item) => item, ["Happy", "Sad", "Confused"]) %>
// Suggester for files
[[<% (await tp.system.suggester((item) => item.basename, app.vault.getMarkdownFiles())).basename %>]]
// Suggester for tags
<% tp.system.suggester(item => item, Object.keys(app.metadataCache.getTags()).map(x => x.replace("#", ""))) %>
