Paste image from the clipboard

Summary

I want to open the uploader and just paste an image from the clipboard.

Basic example

They all are the same, take twitter.com for example.

Motivation

Saves time and adds convenience.

@rsedykh I solved it this way

const widget = uploadcare.Widget("[role=uploadcare-uploader]");

widget.onDialogOpen((dialog) => {
  function uploadFromClipboard(e) {
    let data = e.clipboardData;
    if (!!data && !!data.items.length) {
      // check if clipboard data is image
      if (data.items[0].type.indexOf("image") != 0) {
        alert("No image in the clipboard");
        return;
      }
      let blob = e.clipboardData.items[0].getAsFile();
      dialog.addFiles("object", [blob]);
    }
  }
  window.addEventListener("paste", uploadFromClipboard);
});
