我想截断一个字符串,使其长度不超过给定值。我正在向数据库表写入数据,并希望确保写入的值满足列数据类型的约束。

例如,如果我能写以下内容,那就太好了:

string NormalizeLength(string value, int maxLength)
{
    return value.Substring(0, maxLength);
}

不幸的是,这会引发异常,因为maxLength通常超过字符串值的边界。当然,我可以写一个像下面这样的函数,但我希望这样的东西已经存在了。

string NormalizeLength(string value, int maxLength)
{
    return value.Length <= maxLength ? value : value.Substring(0, maxLength);
} 

执行此任务的难以捉摸的API在哪里?有吗?

TruncateString

public static string _TruncateString(string input, int charaterlimit)
{
    int characterLimit = charaterlimit;
    string output = input;

    // Check if the string is longer than the allowed amount
    // otherwise do nothing
    if (output.Length > characterLimit && characterLimit > 0)
    {
        // cut the string down to the maximum number of characters
        output = output.Substring(0, characterLimit);
        // Check if the character right after the truncate point was a space
        // if not, we are in the middle of a word and need to remove the rest of it
        if (input.Substring(output.Length, 1) != " ")
        {
            int LastSpace = output.LastIndexOf(" ");

            // if we found a space then, cut back to that space
            if (LastSpace != -1)
            {
                output = output.Substring(0, LastSpace);
            }
        }
        // Finally, add the "..."
        output += "...";
    }
    return output;
}

其他回答

另一个解决方案:

return input.Substring(0, Math.Min(input.Length, maxLength));
public static string Truncate( this string value, int maxLength )
    {
        if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(value)) { return value; }

        return new string(value.Take(maxLength).ToArray());// use LINQ and be happy
    }

这是一个vb.net解决方案,标记if(虽然丑陋)语句提高性能,因为当字符串已经小于maxlength时,我们不需要substring语句… 通过使它成为字符串的扩展,它很容易使用…

 <System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Extension()> _
    Public Function Truncate(String__1 As String, maxlength As Integer) As String
        If Not String.IsNullOrEmpty(String__1) AndAlso String__1.Length > maxlength Then
            Return String__1.Substring(0, maxlength)
        Else
            Return String__1
        End If
    End Function

以防这里没有足够的答案,这里是我的:)

public static string Truncate(this string str, 
                              int totalLength, 
                              string truncationIndicator = "")
{
    if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(str) || str.Length < totalLength) 
        return str;

    return str.Substring(0, totalLength - truncationIndicator.Length) 
           + truncationIndicator;
}

使用方法:

"I use it like this".Truncate(5,"~")

我知道这是一个老问题,但这里有一个很好的解决方案:

public static string Truncate(this string text, int maxLength, string suffix = "...")
{
    string str = text;
    if (maxLength > 0)
    {
        int length = maxLength - suffix.Length;
        if (length <= 0)
        {
            return str;
        }
        if ((text != null) && (text.Length > maxLength))
        {
            return (text.Substring(0, length).TrimEnd(new char[0]) + suffix);
        }
    }
    return str;
}

var myString = "hello world"
var myTruncatedString = myString.Truncate(4);

返回:你好……
