I’m looking for a template tag something like truncatewords <https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.9/ref/templates/builtins/#truncatewords> that will truncate a string (usually: TextFields) on a sentence boundary (double newline, sentence punctuation etc.).
I’d prefer to implement this as a template tag for maximum portability. I would use it on several projects where I can’t alter models.py. I realize this probably involves Regular Expressions which…wow, where to start? I’m a designer & not much of a programmer. This seems like a really common problem and surely someone has some traction on it elsewhere. *(Cross-posted to StackOverflow <http://stackoverflow.com/questions/34405097/looking-for-a-django-template-filter-like-truncatewords-that-truncates-on-a-sent> if you want to answer there for extra karma)* -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
