这是我随手拼凑的一个例子。看来我们都达成共识了。

String.prototype.width = function(font) {
  var f = font || '12px arial',
      o = $('<div></div>')
            .text(this)
            .css({'position': 'absolute', 'float': 'left', 'white-space': 'nowrap', 'visibility': 'hidden', 'font': f})
            .appendTo($('body')),
      w = o.width();

  o.remove();

  return w;
}

使用它很简单:"a string".width()

**增加了空格:nowrap，因此宽度大于窗口宽度的字符串可以被计算。

如果你可以安装一个包，并且你想要一个更权威或更精确的答案，你可以使用opentype.js(奇怪的是没有人提到这一点):

import { load } from "opentype.js";

const getWidth = async (text = "Hello World") => {
  const font = await load("path/to/some/font");
  const { x1, x2 } = font.getPath(text, 0, 0, 12).getBoundingBox();
  return x2 - x1;
};

当然，您希望每个字体只调用load一次，因此应该根据您的情况将该行拉出到更高的范围。

下面是一个代码沙盒，将OpenType方法与Canvas和DOM方法进行比较: https://codesandbox.io/s/measure-width-of-text-in-javascript-vctst2

在我的机器上，每个100个样品，典型的结果是:

女士的OpenType: 5 女士帆布:3 女士DOM: 4

我发现的另一个软件包是:https://github.com/sffc/word-wrappr

用下面的样式创建一个DIV。在JavaScript中，设置你要测量的字体大小和属性，将字符串放入DIV中，然后读取DIV的当前宽度和高度，它将拉伸以适应内容，大小将在字符串渲染大小的几个像素内。

var fontSize = 12; var test = document.getElementById(" test "); test.style.fontSize = fontSize; Var高度= (test。clientHeight + 1) + "px"; Var宽度=(测试。clientWidth + 1) + "px" console.log(高度、宽度); #测试 ｛ 位置:绝对的; 可见性:隐藏; 高度:汽车; 宽度:汽车; 空白:nowrap;}/*感谢Herb Caudill的评论*/ ｝ < div id = "测试" > abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ < / div >

我为此写了一个小工具。也许对某些人有用。它不需要jQuery也能工作。

https://github.com/schickling/calculate-size

用法:

var size = calculateSize("Hello world!", {
   font: 'Arial',
   fontSize: '12px'
});

console.log(size.width); // 65
console.log(size.height); // 14

你也可以使用createRange，这比文本克隆技术更准确:

function getNodeTextWidth(nodeWithText) {
    var textNode = $(nodeWithText).contents().filter(function () {
        return this.nodeType == Node.TEXT_NODE;
    })[0];
    var range = document.createRange();
    range.selectNode(textNode);
    return range.getBoundingClientRect().width;
}

我喜欢你的“唯一的想法”只是做一个静态字符宽度地图!它实际上很适合我的目的。有时，出于性能原因，或者因为不容易访问DOM，您可能只想要一个快速的、独立的、校准为单一字体的计算器。这是一个用Helvetica字体校准的;传递一个字符串和字体大小:

const widths = [0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0.2796875,0.2765625,0.3546875,0.5546875,0.5546875,0.8890625,0.665625,0.190625,0.3328125,0.3328125,0.3890625,0.5828125,0.2765625,0.3328125,0.2765625,0.3015625,0.5546875,0.5546875,0.5546875,0.5546875,0.5546875,0.5546875,0.5546875,0.5546875,0.5546875,0.5546875,0.2765625,0.2765625,0.584375,0.5828125,0.584375,0.5546875,1.0140625,0.665625,0.665625,0.721875,0.721875,0.665625,0.609375,0.7765625,0.721875,0.2765625,0.5,0.665625,0.5546875,0.8328125,0.721875,0.7765625,0.665625,0.7765625,0.721875,0.665625,0.609375,0.721875,0.665625,0.94375,0.665625,0.665625,0.609375,0.2765625,0.3546875,0.2765625,0.4765625,0.5546875,0.3328125,0.5546875,0.5546875,0.5,0.5546875,0.5546875,0.2765625,0.5546875,0.5546875,0.221875,0.240625,0.5,0.221875,0.8328125,0.5546875,0.5546875,0.5546875,0.5546875,0.3328125,0.5,0.2765625,0.5546875,0.5,0.721875,0.5,0.5,0.5,0.3546875,0.259375,0.353125,0.5890625]
const avg = 0.5279276315789471

function measureText(str, fontSize) {
  return Array.from(str).reduce(
    (acc, cur) => acc + (widths[cur.charCodeAt(0)] ?? avg), 0
  ) * fontSize
}

这个巨大的丑陋数组是由字符代码索引的ASCII字符宽度。所以这只支持ASCII(否则它假设平均字符宽度)。幸运的是，宽度基本上是随字体大小线性缩放的，所以它在任何字体大小下都能很好地工作。它明显缺乏对字距或结扎之类的意识。

为了“校准”，我只是在svg上渲染了charCode 126(强大的波浪号)的每个字符，并获得了边界框并将其保存到这个数组中;这里有更多的代码、解释和演示。
