Package Exports
- text-trimmer
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (text-trimmer) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.
Readme
Text Trimmer NPM Package
I created this package because I found myself needing to trim text frequently and using the .concat function to add "..." to the end of text stings for posts, blogs etc within my fullstack applications. Rather than repeatedly making the same helper function for each project, I decided to make this npm package to save my time and hopefully others too.
This package does the following
This package will turn:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Curabitur aliquet quam id dui posuere blandit. Curabitur
to a length of your choosing, for example, 20 characters:
Lorem ipsum dolor si...
How it works
In this package you have 2 variables you need to enter text and charLength. It's very simple to achieve the above.
Call the function textTrimmer(textString, 20); to output a string with a limit of 20 characters
It's important to note that this package will only accept strings! If the string length of the string is shorter than your charLength variable, you will just have your input returned.
How to install
Head to your terminal within your project directory and type:
NPM
$ npm install text-trimmer
YARN
$ yarn add text-trimmer
