[Feature Request] Duplicate Rows

[solankimihir]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
No its not related to a problem

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like an option to duplicate rows. I have a "Tasks" table where I create tasks for my team members. There are few tasks that are repeatative in nature where I just need to change 1 field in the row.
It would be great if I can just duplicate the existing task(i.e. row) and just update one field in the duplicated row, instead of creating the row from scratch.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Currently I add a blank row and copy paste from another row.

Additional context
None.

ye， I completed copy via doCopy function

I dont' know how to implement paste

@AliceLanniste Duplicate a record is different from copying and pasting. It is nothing todo with clipboard and should be done through an API. Select one or several records and achieve copying through the right-click menu. This API should be placed under the selection controller. You can start from there to get familiar with the processing flow of the server side.

@tea-artist hi ,I complete duplicate rows.

I am trapped with render. when I click duplicate menu, it'll show a 'duplicate successful' toast.
It will only render if you refresh the web page manually.

May be it's because of websocket?
Can you check how the "Add Row" function works? Is there a way it asks websocket to refresh the data stream or something?
