import android.content.ClipData
import android.content.ClipboardManager
import android.content.Context
import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity
import android.os.Bundle
import android.widget.TextView
import kotlinx.android.synthetic.main.activity_main.*
import java.util.*
class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
        // Get the clipboard system service
        val clipboard = getSystemService(Context.CLIPBOARD_SERVICE) as ClipboardManager
        // Set a random uuid to text view
        textView.text = UUID.randomUUID().toString()
        textView.setOnClickListener {
            (it as TextView).text = UUID.randomUUID().toString()
        }
        btnCopy.setOnClickListener {
            // Copy text to clipboard
            val textToCopy = textView.text
            val clip = ClipData.newPlainText("RANDOM UUID",textToCopy)
            clipboard.primaryClip = clip
        }
        btnPaste.setOnClickListener {
            // Paste clipboard text to edit text
            val clipData:ClipData? = clipboard.primaryClip
            clipData?.apply {
                val textToPaste:String = this.getItemAt(0).text.toString().trim()
                textInputEditText.setText(textToPaste)
            }
        }
     }
