我知道这很旧，但是…

function _truncate($str, $limit) {
    if(strlen($str) < $limit)
        return $str;
    $uid = uniqid();
    return array_shift(explode($uid, wordwrap($str, $limit, $uid)));
}

我将使用preg_match函数来做到这一点，因为您想要的是一个相当简单的表达式。

$matches = array();
$result = preg_match("/^(.{1,199})[\s]/i", $text, $matches);

表达式的意思是“匹配从长度1-200开始以空格结尾的任何子字符串”。结果在$result中，匹配在$matches中。这就解决了你最初的问题，即以任意空格结束的问题。如果你想让它以换行符结束，将正则表达式更改为:

$result = preg_match("/^(.{1,199})[\n]/i", $text, $matches);

我以前用过这个

<?php
    $your_desired_width = 200;
    $string = $var->content;
    if (strlen($string) > $your_desired_width) {
        $string = wordwrap($string, $your_desired_width);
        $string = substr($string, 0, strpos($string, "\n")) . " More...";
    }
    echo $string;
?>

我是这样做的:

$string = "I appreciate your service & idea to provide the branded toys at a fair rent price. This is really a wonderful to watch the kid not just playing with variety of toys but learning faster compare to the other kids who are not using the BooksandBeyond service. We wish you all the best";

print_r(substr($string, 0, strpos(wordwrap($string, 250), "\n")));

下面是基于@Cd-MaN方法的函数。

function shorten($string, $width) {
  if(strlen($string) > $width) {
    $string = wordwrap($string, $width);
    $string = substr($string, 0, strpos($string, "\n"));
  }

  return $string;
}

这将返回单词的前200个字符:

preg_replace('/\s+?(\S+)?$/', '', substr($string, 0, 201));
