prefer_ is_ not_ empty
Use isNotEmpty for Iterables and Maps.
Details
#
PREFER x.isNotEmpty to !x.isEmpty for Iterable
and Map instances.
When testing whether an iterable or map is empty, prefer isNotEmpty over
!isEmpty to improve code readability.
BAD:
if (!sources.isEmpty) {
process(sources);
}
GOOD:
if (todo.isNotEmpty) {
sendResults(request, todo.isEmpty);
}
Enable
#
To enable the prefer_is_not_empty rule, add prefer_is_not_empty under
linter > rules in your analysis_options.yaml
file:
linter:
rules:
- prefer_is_not_empty
If you're instead using the YAML map syntax to configure linter rules,
add prefer_is_not_empty: true under linter > rules:
linter:
rules:
prefer_is_not_empty: true
