Check if a string is blank or doesn't exist in Scala

Question

I have an Option[String].

I want to check if there is a string exists and if it\'s exists its not blank.

def isBlank( input : Option[Strin         


        

Answer 1

What you should do is check using exists. Like so:

myOption.exists(_.trim.nonEmpty)

which will return True if and only if the Option[String] is not None and not empty.
