This is Version 2.9.0 with support for protocol versions 1 and 2.

Notes:

  • You will need a client app to use ClipShare. You can find a client app for Android at apt.izzysoft.de. Its source is available at github.com/thevindu-w/clip_share_client.
  • The clipshare.conf file in assets is a sample. You may need to modify it.
  • There are multiple Linux server versions included in assets in the clip_share_server-2.9.0-linux_x86_64.tar.gz archive. They are compiled for some GLIBC versions (2.27, 2.31, 2.35, 2.38, and 2.39) with some libssl versions (1.1 and 3). You can select the one compatible with your Linux system if there is any. They might not work for other GLIBC versions and libssl versions. If none of them are working on your system, you need to compile it from the source for your distribution. The compiling procedure is described in README.md.
    • For Ubuntu 22 (Jammy) based distros, the version with GLIBC 2.35 and libssl-3 should work.
    • For Ubuntu 20 (Focal) based distros, the version with GLIBC 2.31 and libssl-1 should work.
    • For Ubuntu 18 (Bionic) based distros, the version with GLIBC 2.27 and libssl-1 should work.
    • For the latest versions of Fedora or Arch based distros, the version with GLIBC 2.38 or later should work.
  • Windows version is tested only on Windows 10 and later. It might fail on older versions.
  • There are two macOS server versions included in assets in the clip_share_server-2.9.0-macos.zip archive. They are compiled for Intel-based Mac and Mac computers with Apple silicon. You can select the one compatible with your Mac computer.
    • For Mac computers with Apple silicon, use clip_share-arm64.
    • For Intel-based Mac, use clip_share-x86_64.
  • You need to allow the app through the firewall. Refer to README.md#allow-through-firewall and README.md#how-to-use sections for more details.
  • Optionally, you may install clip_share to run on startup. Refer to README.md#installation for more details.

Changes:

  • The Send Files option can automatically cut the files into the clipboard to paste them into a different folder. This option can be enabled by the cut_sent_files configuration option. Refer to the README.md#configuration section for more details.
  • The config file can now be placed in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME or home in addition to the current working directory. Refer to README.md#configuration for more information.
  • Add installer scripts to make clip_share run on startup.
  • Add options to run without daemonizing by setting command line flags. Refer to README.md#command-line-options for more information.
  • Bug and vulnerability fixes
    • Bug fix in the Get Image function for large images.
    • Fix server restart failures on Linux when the executable name contains spaces.
    • Fix possible bugs on the screenshot function on Windows.
  • Improvements to the code.
