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;
}

通过使用wordwrap函数。它将文本分割成多行，这样最大宽度就是您指定的宽度，在单词边界处断开。分割之后，你只需取第一行:

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

这个线性程序不能处理的一件事是，当文本本身比所需的宽度短时。为了处理这种边情况，我们应该这样做:

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

上面的解决方案存在一个问题，即如果文本在实际切点之前包含换行符，则会过早地切割文本。这里有一个解决这个问题的版本:

function tokenTruncate($string, $your_desired_width) {
  $parts = preg_split('/([\s\n\r]+)/', $string, null, PREG_SPLIT_DELIM_CAPTURE);
  $parts_count = count($parts);

  $length = 0;
  $last_part = 0;
  for (; $last_part < $parts_count; ++$last_part) {
    $length += strlen($parts[$last_part]);
    if ($length > $your_desired_width) { break; }
  }

  return implode(array_slice($parts, 0, $last_part));
}

另外，这里是用于测试实现的PHPUnit测试类:

class TokenTruncateTest extends PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase {
  public function testBasic() {
    $this->assertEquals("1 3 5 7 9 ",
      tokenTruncate("1 3 5 7 9 11 14", 10));
  }

  public function testEmptyString() {
    $this->assertEquals("",
      tokenTruncate("", 10));
  }

  public function testShortString() {
    $this->assertEquals("1 3",
      tokenTruncate("1 3", 10));
  }

  public function testStringTooLong() {
    $this->assertEquals("",
      tokenTruncate("toooooooooooolooooong", 10));
  }

  public function testContainingNewline() {
    $this->assertEquals("1 3\n5 7 9 ",
      tokenTruncate("1 3\n5 7 9 11 14", 10));
  }
}

编辑:

像'à'这样的特殊UTF8字符不会被处理。在REGEX的末尾添加'u'来处理它:

部分美元= preg_split (' / ([\ s \ n \ r] +) / u ',美元字符串,null, PREG_SPLIT_DELIM_CAPTURE);

我创建了一个更类似于substr的函数，并使用了@Dave的思想。

function substr_full_word($str, $start, $end){
    $pos_ini = ($start == 0) ? $start : stripos(substr($str, $start, $end), ' ') + $start;
    if(strlen($str) > $end){ $pos_end = strrpos(substr($str, 0, ($end + 1)), ' '); } // IF STRING SIZE IS LESSER THAN END
    if(empty($pos_end)){ $pos_end = $end; } // FALLBACK
    return substr($str, $pos_ini, $pos_end);
}

注:全长切割可能小于substr。

当我注意到wordwrap函数的$break参数时，产生了以下解决方案:

字符串$str [， int $width = 75[，字符串$break = "\n" [， bool $cut = false]])

下面是解决方案:

/**
 * Truncates the given string at the specified length.
 *
 * @param string $str The input string.
 * @param int $width The number of chars at which the string will be truncated.
 * @return string
 */
function truncate($str, $width) {
    return strtok(wordwrap($str, $width, "...\n"), "\n");
}

示例# 1。

print truncate("This is very long string with many chars.", 25);

上面的例子将输出:

This is very long string...

例# 2。

print truncate("This is short string.", 25);

上面的例子将输出:

This is short string.

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;
?>

我有一个函数，它几乎可以做你想要的，如果你做一些编辑，它将完全适合:

<?php
function stripByWords($string,$length,$delimiter = '<br>') {
    $words_array = explode(" ",$string);
    $strlen = 0;
    $return = '';
    foreach($words_array as $word) {
        $strlen += mb_strlen($word,'utf8');
        $return .= $word." ";
        if($strlen >= $length) {
            $strlen = 0;
            $return .= $delimiter;
        }
    }
    return $return;
}
?>
