Requirements

  • MUST implement PFv6 visual designs
  • MUST provide end-user feature parity with `@patternfly/react-core` ClipboardCopy
  • MAY adjust element API to leverage web platform strengths
  • SHOULD maintain CSS custom property theming compatibility
  • SHOULD expose useful CSS shadow parts

Element-specific considerations

  • React `variant`: `inline`, `expansion`, `json`, `inline-compact` - map to `variant` attribute
  • React `hoverTip` - tooltip on hover of copy button; default "Copy to clipboard"
  • React `clickTip` - tooltip text after successful copy; default "Successfully copied to clipboard!"
  • React `isReadOnly` - disables text editing; map to `readonly` attribute
  • React `isCode` - renders content in `` with monospace font; map to `code` attribute
  • React `isBlock` - full-width layout
  • React `onChange` - fires when editable input changes (non-readonly variant)
  • Copy uses `navigator.clipboard.writeText()`; handle HTTPS-only gracefully
  • `expansion` variant: toggle shows/hides expanded content; button integrates with ``

Checklist

  • Update `elements/package.json` exports

Implementation

  • API per `.claude/ADVICE.md`
