This is a patched version of webkit2gtk w/ image data pasting support.

This is based on the original patch in https://github.com/ttys3/archlinux-webkit2gtk, modified to use proper filenames and support larger images.

Prebuilt packages can be found in the [archlinuxcn] repo, see https://github.com/archlinuxcn/repo for instructions.

Same as @Ricky_cezar. It takes hours to compile on my ThinkPad T560. A binary would be much appreciated :)

Is it possible to make a binary version of this package? It takes too long to compile on older hardware and consumes a lot of memory.

This package used to work with cinny (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/cinny-desktop-bin) but the latest update causes immediate freezing for me now so I had to switch back to the non image paste extra repo package. Are there logs somewhere I could submit in the hopes of getting this fixed?

glad that someone like my patch.

as for https://webkitgtk.org/2023/04/20/webkitgtk2.40.1-released.html pasting content using the Asynchronous Clipboard API is enabled for GTK platform. (be aware that this can only works under secure context, so http is not availabe)

I've tested that using navigator.clipboard.read() (only https supported), image paste works good.

but for legacy web pages (which using clipboardData.files or clipboardData.items), this patch is still required for image paste support.

for newest webkitgtk-6.0 (webkitgtk-2.40.1), the patch is almost the same: https://github.com/ttys3/my-fedora-packages/blob/main/src/webkitgtk/PasteboardGtk-legacy-clipboard-image-paste.patch

@truongan: Done in https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/webkit2gtk-4.1-imgpaste

@truongan: I can, I just didn't have any motivation to do that because I created this package for tauri apps and I don't use epiphany my self :) Will create a new package later.

truongan commented on 2022-08-01 04:25 (UTC)

I wonder if you have any plan for a similar package for webkit2gtk-4.1. I really need image pasting into epiphany but since it use gtk-4.1, this package won't do much for epiphany :(
