Copy Button

An icon button that copies text to the clipboard and animates a copy → check transition with a live announcement.

Preview

composer require jml/brok

Controls

Theme
Surface
Direction
Viewport

Device view renders in an isolated frame so real responsive breakpoints apply. Switch to Full for overflowing popovers.

Installation

terminal
php artisan ui:add copy-button

Behavior layer (Alpine)

This component installs a self-registering Alpine module to resources/js/ui/copy-button.js. Import the behavior layer once from your bundle so it loads (it hooks alpine:init):

resources/js/ui/index.js JS
import './copy-button.js';

Registry contract

Install confidence

php artisan ui:add copy-button writes only the generated targets below. The CLI validates each file hash before writing and prompts before replacing local changes unless --force is used.

Guidance

Buttons and direct actions

Commit an explicit user action.

Use when

  • Use for explicit actions and commits; keep one action visually primary when several sit together. Do not use button treatment for navigation-only view changes when links, tabs, or radios describe state more clearly.

Avoid when

  • Avoid using copy-button as a default simply because it is available in the library. Choose it only when its interaction cost, visibility, and behavior match the job to be done.
Task length
micro
Interaction cost
low
Interruptiveness

Comparison needed

Preferred alternatives

  • Link for navigation
  • Tabs or radios for view changes

Anti-patterns

  • Using a button for navigation-only state changes
  • Presenting multiple equally dominant primary actions

Data slots

copy-button

Capabilities

wcag-2.2-aa-target interactive responsive rtl darkMode localized

Behavior

  • Uses server-rendered Blade and semantic HTML.
  • Installs a JavaScript behavior module when the registry item includes resources/js/ui files.
  • Declares registry capability flags: a11y, interactive, responsive, rtl, darkMode, localized.

Usage

previews.components.copy-button.default.blade.php Blade
<div class="flex items-center gap-3 rounded-md border border-border bg-muted px-4 py-3 font-mono text-sm text-foreground">
    <span class="flex-1">composer require jml/brok</span>
    <x-ui.copy-button value="composer require jml/brok" label="Copy command" :copiedLabel="__('Copied')" />
</div>

Accessibility & localization

WCAG 2.2 AA RTL-ready data-slot Keyboard focus-visible Localized labels
  • Accessibility target: wcag-2.2-aa-target.
  • Uses semantic HTML and a stable data-slot attribute for styling/scripting hooks.
  • Focus-visible rings use the ring token so keyboard focus is always visible.
  • Disabled and invalid states are conveyed to assistive tech, not by color alone.
  • Targets WCAG 2.2 AA; verify contrast in light, dark, admin and customer surfaces above.
  • Labels go through __() and the component uses logical properties (ms-*, text-start, start-*) so it mirrors correctly — flip the preview to RTL to confirm.

Source

The exact, editable file ui:add writes into your app — copy it or own the whole thing. Previews render this same code; there are no preview-only components.
