wordwrapjs

Word wrapping for plain text.

Synopsis

Wrap some text in a 20 character column.

import wordwrap from 'wordwrapjs'

const text = 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.'
const result = wordwrap.wrap(text, { width: 20 })

result now looks like this:

Lorem ipsum dolor
sit amet,
consectetur
adipiscing elit, sed
do eiusmod tempor
incididunt ut labore
et dolore magna
aliqua.

Force long words to wrap by setting the break flag.

Welcome to Node.js v16.6.2.
> wrap = require('wordwrapjs')

> url = 'https://github.com/75lb/wordwrapjs'
> wrap.lines(url, { width: 18 })
[ 'https://github.com/75lb/wordwrapjs' ]

> wrap.lines(url, { width: 18, break: true })
[ 'https://github.com', '/75lb/wordwrapjs' ]
