Add Gen.nonEmptyStringOf #944

Closed satorg closed 1 year ago

satorg commented 1 year ago

I totally realize that there are a lot of other ways to achieve the same functionality with the existing generators, but I think it is a quite basic feature and can come handy when someone (me, personally) just needs to "grab and go" a non-empty string. So I believe it would complement the nonEmptyListOf and nonEmptyMap generators pretty well.

Curious to know if something like nonEmptySomeOf (that complements someOf) would make sense. I am not sure if such a method exists already.

@vivekragunathan I'd open a separate issue to discuss that one, but it doesn't sound unreasonable...

This new method should be added to the list of definitions for string support in the docs:
