contentReceiver

Modifier in Compose Foundation

Configures the current node and any children nodes as a Content Receiver.

Content in this context refers to a [TransferableContent] that could be received from another app through Drag-and-Drop, Copy/Paste, or from the Software Keyboard.

There is no pre-filtering for the received content by media type, e.g. software Keyboard would assume that the app can handle any content that's sent to it. Therefore, it's crucial to check the received content's type and other related information before reading and processing it. Please refer to [TransferableContent.hasMediaType] and [TransferableContent.clipMetadata] to learn more about how to do proper checks on the received item.
