No support for lineBreakMode

[tettoffensive]

It doesn't appear that BonMot has support for lineBreakMode so that you can set truncation to be ... among other options. Unless I am missing something. I can't find that this option is exposed.

@tettoffensive good catch! This is an accidental omission. If you're up for submitting a pull request, the changes from #101 and #104 are essentially the same as what would need to change to support lineBreakMode.

[tettoffensive]

Thanks. I'm up for it, but don't know if I'll get to it today.

[ZevEisenberg]

No rush on my end. You're the first person who's requested it. Let me know if you're not going to be able to get to it; otherwise, I look forward to your PR 😄

Hey @tettoffensive, is this still something you're interested in? I'm prepping for a 3.0 release that includes some breaking changes. It would be cool to get this in, if you're interested in working on it soon. If not, It doesn't introduce new breaking changes, so it could always go in later as a point release.

[tettoffensive]

@ZevEisenberg I'll try to get this in!

@ZevEisenberg I made a PR here: #128

On another note, do you have a trick in xcode for your indentation with the BonChains? Where each . indents on a newline?

[ZevEisenberg]

@tettoffensive thanks for the PR - I'll check it out!

As for indentation, Xcode gives me this for Swift:

attributedString = BONChain()
    .string("Hello, testing world")
    .font(UIFont.preferredFontForTextStyle(UIFontTextStyleBody))
    .textColor(UIColor.redColor())
    .attributedString

And this for Objective-C:

attributedString = BONChain.new
.string(@"Hello, testing world")
.font([UIFont preferredFontForTextStyle:UIFontTextStyleBody])
.textColor([UIColor redColor])
.attributedString;

So, no, my README indentations are lies, damned lies, I tell you! Sorry 😞

[ZevEisenberg]

@tettoffensive oops, forgot a wrinkle: for my Objective-C code, I use clang-format as outlined at the bottom of this project's README. It's what gives me the nice indentation like this:

NSAttributedString *attributedString =
    BONChain.new
        .string(@"1234")
        .fontNameAndSize(kBONEBGaramond, kBONPointSize)
        .figureSpacing(BONFigureSpacingTabular)
        .attributedString;

I have it set to fail commits unless my format is correct, and it auto-generates a patch that I can use to format the code automatically.

Fixed in #128.
