Line break and add in the second line

I have a dataframe that is incorporated in the DT table. But the sentences are long. So can we break the sentences and put in the second line

This is the dataframe with 2 rows

df
COlA 
Sentence is too long to be written here
Sentence is too long to be written here

Expected output

df
COlA 
Sentence is too long 
-to be written here
Sentence is too long 
-to be written here

To keep all automatically set the same widths for the whole column you can use

stringr::str_wrap("Sentence is too long to be written here", width = 20)

To make the changes visible in you shiny application you would the also need to add the following lines somewhere in you ui code

tags$style(
          "td{white-space:pre;"
        )
