Rule for no text ""

[leojpod]

What the rule should do:
This rule should flag the use of Html.text with an empty string literal and suggest to use one of the alternative from elm-community/html-extra instead.

Example of things the rule would report:

stuff |> Maybe.map viewStuff |> Maybe.withDefault (text "")

Example of things the rule would not report:

import ModuleWithText exposing (text)

stuff |> Maybe.map viewStuff |> Maybe.withDefault (text "")

When (not) to enable this rule:

• if you do not want to use Html.Extra
• if you do not mind using text ""

I am looking for:

• Feedback
• To know in which package(s) this would fit best or if you've other rules that would fit in.

At the moment the package is published here: https://package.elm-lang.org/packages/leojpod/review-no-empty-html-text/latest/

I'm not sure if I understand the difference is between the example that the rule reports and the example the rule doesn't report. Is it that that the module has WithText in the name?

[leojpod]

No :)

The difference is that the rule should target only Html.text and not a function text from another module or even a function that is define in the file.

Oh, yes in hindsight that should have been obvious. Thanks for the clarification.

[leojpod]

No problems at all :) I'm not known for being very clear in my explanations
