In reactJS, how to copy text to clipboard?

Question

I\'m using ReactJS and when a user clicks a link I want to copy some text to the clipboard.

I am using Chrome 52 and I do not need to support any other browsers.

import React, { Component } from 'react';

export default class CopyTextOnClick extends Component {
    copyText = () => {
        this.refs.input.select();

        document.execCommand('copy');

        return false;
    }

    render () {
        const { text } = this.state;

        return (
            
                { text }

                
            
        )
    }
}
