How to limit characters in Typography of MUI?-CodePudding

My titles are very long I want them to look like this:

This is a title of...

This is my code

<CardContent>
 <Typography gutterBottom variant="h5" component="div">
   <Link href={`/${encodeURIComponent(data.slug)}`}>
     <a>{data.title}</a> // This is a string of title text
   </Link>
  </Typography>
</CardContent>

How to limit them to 18 characters only and add ... at the end?

CodePudding user response：

Usually you solve this with CSS. Set a max-width together with text-overflow: ellipsis;.

The advantage is better SEO and the browser is able to use the available space more efficiently than just counting characters.

For example a M character is larger than a l character.

But you can also limit it with JS:

<CardContent>
 <Typography gutterBottom variant="h5" component="div">
   <Link href={`/${encodeURIComponent(data.slug)}`}>
     <a>{data.title.length <= 18 ? data.title: (data.title.substr(0, 18)   "...")}</a> // This is a string of title text
   </Link>
  </Typography>
</CardContent>

You can use simple custom css to limit this

span {
    display: inline-block;
    width: 200px;
    white-space: nowrap;
    overflow: hidden !important;
    text-overflow: ellipsis;
}

<span>
