NonEmptyString

Validates the input and returns a boolean or an error message.

Creates a new instance of the newtype.

If the validate method is not defined for this, it will simply wrap the input in the neotype.

If validate is defined, it will be called at compile-time to check if the input is valid. If it fails, it will raise a compile-time error. input should be a literal or a constant expression, a compile-time known value—otherwise, you should use the make method instead.

Creates a list of newtype instances.

This will essentially call apply for each value in the list, performing the same compile-time validation for each element.

If any of the elements fail validation, it will raise a compile-time error. Otherwise, it will return a list of newtype instances.

Attempts to create a new instance of the Subtype for the given input by calling the validate method.

If the validation fails, it will return a Left with an error message. If the validation succeeds, it will return a Right with the new instance.

WARNING! Creates a new instance of the newtype without performing any validation. ONLY USE THIS IF YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING.

This method should be used with caution, as it bypasses any validation defined in the validate method. It is recommended to use the apply method instead, which performs compile-time validation of the input.

WARNING! This casts an F[A] to an F[Type] without performing any validation. ONLY USE THIS IF YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING.

If, for instance, you have a List[A] and you want to convert it to a List[Type], you can use this method to do so.
