LazyPaste Extension

LazyPaster is a Chrome extension, that I created because I was tired of typing the same log messages/reasons while accessing systems. ✌️

Features

Custom Templates: Define custom text templates with placeholders for clipboard content.
Persistent Storage: Templates are saved in Chrome storage, so they’re available across sessions.
Button Customization: Customize button colours and titles for easy identification.
Template Management: Edit, delete, import, and export templates to streamline workflows.

Usage

Open the Extension: Click on the LazyPaster icon in your Chrome toolbar.
Add a New Template:
Enter a title for the template button.
Define the template text, including {$$} where the clipboard content should appear.
Select a button colour.
Click Add Template.
Using Templates: Click on a template button to paste the formatted text with the latest clipboard item into the active input field.
Edit Templates: Use the Edit button to modify an existing template.
Delete Templates: Click the Delete button to remove a template.

Export all templates as a JSON file for backup.
Import a JSON file to load previously saved templates.
