truncate

public static String truncate(String in,
                              int length,
                              Optional<String> ellipsis)

Truncates the string in to a string with maximal length chars. If an ellipsis is given, the length of the ellipsis is taken into account as well.
This method counts the number of unicode codepoints in the string and the ellipsis, not the number of chars. So any text with a 4 byte utf8 char in it will likely have a length greater than length.

Parameters:

in - The text to truncate

length - The maximum length

ellipsis - An optional ellipsis

Returns:

A truncated string if in is longher than length
