Description

String Values Formatting

Usage

format_string(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'character'
format_string(x, length = NULL, abbreviate = "...", ...)

Arguments

x

String value.
...

Arguments passed to or from other methods.
length

Numeric, maximum length of the returned string. If not NULL, will shorten the string to a maximum length, however, it will not truncate inside words. I.e. if the string length happens to be inside a word, this word is removed from the returned string, so the returned string has a maximum length of length, but might be shorter.
abbreviate

String that will be used as suffix, if x was shortened.

Value

A formatted string.

Examples

s <- "This can be considered as very long string!"
# string is shorter than max.length, so returned as is
format_string(s, 60)

# string is shortened to as many words that result in
# a string of maximum 20 chars
format_string(s, 20)
