How to make clipboard.js to copy text to clipboard without pressing any button

Question

As far as I know clipboard.js copies text only when button or link is clicked. Is there other way to copy text?

Clipboard.js creator here.

Due to security restrictions imposed by browser vendors, user interaction is required in order copy/cut to work. A simulated click event using JavaScript does not work as this would enable clipboard poisoning.
