isNotEmptyRecord()

It's a common use case to check if a value is a valid plain object (aka Record) but often you will also need to check to see if the object is empty.

The isNotEmptyRecord() foots the bill by returning true or false when the value is a valid Record (non-empty vs empty, respectively) but conversely returns null when it's not a valid Record.

Usage​

import { isNotEmptyRecord } from '@spa-tools/utilities';

const nonEmptyRecord = { baz: 123, foo: 'bar' };
const emptyRecord = {};
const notARecord = ['foo'];

console.log(isNotEmptyRecord(nonEmptyRecord));
// -> true
console.log(isNotEmptyRecord(emptyRecord));
// -> false
console.log(isNotEmptyRecord(notARecord));
// -> null
