Quick Template Copy
This add-on allows you to quickly copy pre-formatted information from one or more notes in the Anki Browser to your clipboard using a customizable template. It is an enhanced version of the original “Quick Clipboard Copy” add-on.
Key Features:
Multi-Select: Select as many notes as you want in the browser. Template System: Define a custom output format for each note type in the configuration. Manual Trigger: Copies content only when you press Ctrl+C (or use the menu item), not automatically. Special Fields: Use {{tags}} in your template to include a note’s tags. Configuration
To configure the add-on, go to Tools > Add-ons, select “Quick Template Copy,” and click the “Config” button.
The configuration uses a template system. You define a string for each note type, using {{FieldName}} as placeholders for field content.
Example config.json: { “Cloze”: “Text: {{Text}}\nExtra: {{Extra}}\nTags: {{tags}}”, “Basic”: “Front: {{Front}}\nBack: {{Back}}” }
Template Rules:
{{FieldName}} will be replaced by the content of that field. Field names are case-sensitive! {{tags}} is a special placeholder that will be replaced by a comma-separated list of the note’s tags. You can use \n for new lines and add any other text or punctuation you need to format your output.
After changing the configuration, you must restart Anki for the changes to take effect.
Usage Open the Anki Browser. Select one or more notes. Press Ctrl+C or go to the Edit > Copy from Template menu item. The formatted content from the selected notes will be copied to your clipboard, with the output from each note separated by a blank line. Attribution and License
