react-text-cropper v1.0.2

React Text Cropper

A React component that automatically crops text to fit within a container's dimensions while maintaining readability. The component intelligently handles text overflow by adding ellipsis and responds to container size changes in real-time.

Features

• ✂️ Automatically crops text to fit container dimensions
• 🔄 Responsive to container size changes
• ⚡ Optimized performance with debounced calculations
• 🎨 Customizable ellipsis
• 📏 Configurable line height
• 📦 TypeScript support
• 🎯 Zero dependencies (except for React)

Installation

npm install react-text-cropper
# or
yarn add react-text-cropper

Usage

import { TextCropper } from 'react-text-cropper';

function App() {
  return (
    <div style={{ width: '200px', height: '100px' }}>
      <TextCropper
        text="Your long text content that needs to be cropped goes here..."
        className="custom-class"
        ellipsis="..."
        defaultLineHeight={1.2}
        debounceWait={300}
      />
    </div>
  );
}

Props

How It Works

The component:

1. Measures the container's dimensions
2. Calculates how much text can fit within the available space
3. Automatically adds ellipsis when text overflows
4. Recalculates on container size changes
5. Uses a canvas for text measurements to ensure accuracy
6. Implements debouncing to optimize performance during resize events
