Text component enables middle ellipsis in text overflow for Jetpack Compose, allowing concise display of long strings. Experimental support for multiple platforms, awaiting official adoption.
A Text Component with ellipsis in the middle of text for Jetpack Compose and Compose Multiplatform.
If Text comes to support Text-overflow middle cropping, this library will be deprecated.
[!NOTE] From Compose 1.8.0(-alpha02),
MiddleEllipsisTextOverflow has officially supported. It's easier to use it if you don't need to customize ellipsis text or ellipsis text count.
Text(
text = soLongText,
modifier = Modifier,
overflow = TextOverflow.MiddleEllipsis,
maxLines = 1 // if you want single-line ellipsis
)
minSdkVersion: 24
// settings.gradle(.kts)
pluginManagement {
repositories {
// ...
mavenCentral()
}
}
// {module}/build.gradle(.kts)
implementation "io.github.mataku:middle-ellipsis-text:${latestVersion}"
// Material 3 Text
// implementation "io.github.mataku:middle-ellipsis-text3:${latestVersion}"
MiddleEllipsisText and MiddleEllipsisText3 support Compose Multiplatform experimentally and only available for iOS, Android and JVM (desktop).
sourceSets {
val commonMain by getting {
dependencies {
implementation("io.github.mataku:middle-ellipsis-text:${latestVersion}")
}
}
MiddleEllipsisText(
// required
text = "yeah"
)
The same arguments can be specified as for Text composable. See more details: https://github.com/mataku/MiddleEllipsisText/blob/develop/MiddleEllipsisText/src/main/java/io/github/mataku/middleellipsistext/MiddleEllipsisText.kt
