How to format a very large string (organize the text)

Question

I have an object with an attribute of type String that has a very large text, and I need to organize this string so that the text is organized and more beautiful.

I wonder if there are any JS plugins that solve my problem or solution with CSS and if someone has been through this situation, and give me an idea of how to solve the problem.

The object is coming like this:

EX:

var obj = {
    text: 'Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..", comes from a line in section 1.10.32.The standard chunk of Lorem Ipsum used since the 1500s is reproduced below for those interested. Sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 from "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" by Cicero are also reproduced in their exact original form, accompanied by English versions from the 1914 translation by H. Rackham.'
}

In the view the text is exactly the way it comes from the object, and basically I want to put paragraphs in that text.

PS: Basically I want to add paragraphs to this string

Answer 1

A hint is to delimit the size of the output component, leave word markup to break word, block display and align justified. See the result:

#conteudo {
  width: 300px;
  word-wrap: break-word;
  display: inline-block;
  text-align:justify;
}

var obj = {
  text: 'Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old.

}

document.getElementById("conteudo").innerHTML = obj.text;

#conteudo {
  width: 300px;
  word-wrap: break-word;
  display: inline-block;
  text-align:justify;
}

<div id="conteudo">
</div>

You can use this solution with Regex, however, depending on the patterns that appear in your text, you will have to add new rules.

<script>
var obj = 
{
    text: 'Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text.It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source.Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC.

}

document.write(JSON.stringify(obj).replace(/(?:\bBC|[^\sA-Z])\.(?=\s|[A-Z])/g, '$&<br><br>'));
