After a click on .fw-code-copy-button
I would like to copy source code from it's nearest container.
.fw-code-copy-button
-s are created dynamically, after user click dedicated "view source" button.
Html for example button:
<span class="fw-code-copy">
<span class="fw-code-copy-button" data-clipboard-text="...">copy</span>
</span>
This is how i trigger click event, and define the source code to be copied to clipboard:
$(document).on("click", ".fw-code-copy-button", function(){
var source = $(this).closest(".fw-code-copy").next("code").text();
});
And this is how clipboard.js triggers it's copy event
new Clipboard(".fw-code-copy-button", {
text: function(trigger) {
return source; // source should somehow be copied from scope above it
}
});
Whenever i click anywhere on the website, the following error appears:
Uncaught Error: Missing required attributes, use either "target" or "text"
But first of all I don't want to define text to be copied in data-clipboard-text="..."
and secondly data-clipboard-text
is defined with "..."
as it's value.
If someone would pay a second i would be very grateful.
[edit] I have written jsFiddle for demonstration, and suprisingly UncaughtError disappeared, but i still need to move source
code from onClick to Clipboard scope.

According to your original code:
new Clipboard(".fw-code-copy-button", {
text: function(trigger) {
return $(trigger).closest(".fw-code-copy").next("code").text();
}
});
The trigger is the button you clicked. Get the parent and then return the text inside the code block. You will also need to trim any leading and trailing white-space.
Demo
This grabs text inside a code block as in your included example
new Clipboard(".fw-code-copy-button", {
text: function(trigger) {
return $(trigger).parent().find('code').first().text().trim();
}
});
.fw-code-copy {
display: block;
position: relative;
width: 400px;
height: 30px;
background: #FFE;
border: thin solid #FF0;
margin-bottom: 0.5em;
padding: 0.5em;
}
.fw-code-copy-button {
position: absolute;
top: 8px;
right: 8px;
padding: 0.25em;
border: thin solid #777;
background: #800080;
color: #FFF;
}
.fw-code-copy-button:hover {
border: thin solid #DDD;
background: #992699;
cursor: pointer;
}
