[Feature]: Shared clipboard when creating browser profiles

Open osintalex opened this issue 9 months ago • 1 comments

What change would you like to see?

I would like to be able to copy paste from the UI to the browser container that runs when I create a profile.

Context

It's a pain to have to type out usernames and passwords, especially when passwords are like weird 12+ character auto-generated ones which all of mine are.

I'm happy to work on PRs if there is support for this. I haven't looked much into implementation details so I don't know how difficult this would be. From a brief look, seems like this could be achieved by firing data on key press event in the UI to the backend which would then send that data in to the k8s deployment running the browser profile.

send that data in to the k8s deployment running the browser profile

imagine this is the hard bit though, not sure if the container running the crawl is configured at present to be able to receive information since I can't see any expose directives in the Dockerfile
