      />
    )
  }

Methods

isClamped() {Boolean}

Is the text content clamped.

Limitations

not clamps text on the server side or with JavaScript disabled
only accepts plain text by default. Use lib/html.js for experimental rich html support
can be fooled by some special styles: ::first-letter, ligatures, etc.
requires modern browsers env

Experimental html truncation

Instead of props.text, use props.unsafeHTML to pass your content.

Also, props.ellipsis here only supports plain text, use props.ellipsisHTML is to fully customize the ellipsis style.

The props.onReflow gives you html instead of text.

props.trimRight is not supported by HTMLEllipsis.

import HTMLEllipsis from 'react-lines-ellipsis-observer/lib/html'

<HTMLEllipsis
  unsafeHTML='simple html content'
  maxLine='5'
  ellipsis='...'
  basedOn='letters'
/>

Responsive to window resize and orientation change

import LinesEllipsis from 'react-lines-ellipsis-observer'
import responsiveHOC from 'react-lines-ellipsis-observer/lib/responsiveHOC'

const ResponsiveEllipsis = responsiveHOC()(LinesEllipsis)
// then just use ResponsiveEllipsis

Loose version

This is a non-standardized css-based solution for some webkit-based browsers. It may have better render performance but also can be fragile. Be sure to test your use case if you use it. See https://css-tricks.com/line-clampin/#article-header-id-0 for some introduction. Also, you may want to star and follow https://crbug.com/305376.

import LinesEllipsisLoose from 'react-lines-ellipsis-observer/lib/loose'

<LinesEllipsisLoose
  text='long long text'
  maxLine='2'
  lineHeight='16'
/>
