In my app, a Story has a summary field, and on the page that lists stories, i want to show the first ''n'' (eg twenty) words from the summary (which i would follow with "..."). Does anyone know a simple way to do this? I can think of complicated and ugly ways to do it, involving going through the string a char at a time counting spaces, but i''m guessing there''s a neat rails helper (since there usually is!). thanks max -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

First of all, split takes a limiter, and its inverse is join:
words = str.split('' '', n + 1)
words[-1] = finish
words.join('' '')
But is this really what you want? Suppose the book was a discussion
on Mary Poppins? It seems to me that you have space for n characters,
and you need to end at a word break:
letters = str[0..limit - finish.length]
letters.sub!(/ \S*$/)
letters + " " + finish

inject here is unnecessarily expensive. I try to avoid using inject if
it isn''t really needed.
Using ActionView''s truncate() as a model:
def truncate_words(text, num_words = 6, truncate_string =
"…")
if text.nil? then return end
arr = text.split('' '')
arr.length > num_words ? arr[0...num_words].join('' '') +
truncate_string : text
end

Or how about using an extensible truncation factory:
class Truncator
def initialize( string, length, ending, truncate_on = "" )
arr = string.split( truncate_on )
@truncated_string = arr.length > length ?
arr[0...length].join( truncate_on ).gsub( /\W\Z/, '''') + ending
:
string
end
def to_s
@truncated_string
end
end
def truncate(text, length = 30, ending = "…")
Truncator.new(text, length, ending).to_s
end
def truncate_words(text, length = 8, ending = "…")
Truncator.new( text, length, ending, truncate_on = " ").to_s
end
def truncate_sentences(text, length = 3, ending = "…")
Truncator.new( text, length, ending, truncate_on = ".").to_s
end
Usage:

Oh, I forgot to mention, it also removes trailing punctuation from the truncated string to avoid typographical errors like: "Lorem ipsum,..."
