JS code works well for Chrome, Firefox and Safari
const source = document.querySelector('.source'); source.addEventListener('paste', (event) => { if (event.clipboardData && event.clipboardData.items && event.clipboardData.items.length == 1) { const item = event.clipboardData.items[0]; if (item.kind == 'file' && item.type == 'image/png') { let blob = item.getAsFile(); let f = new FileReader(); f.onload = (e) => { console.log(e.target.result); } f.readAsDataURL(blob); } } event.preventDefault(); });
