**TL;DR** Null Object pattern for files.

This project will create an empty file of a type requested.
If possible, that file will be the smallest valid file for that type. For example, an empty jpg will be a 1x1 pixel jpg.
## Setup
From [pypi](https://pypi.org/project/empty-files/):
pip install empty-files
## Usage
This code:
<!-- snippet: create_empty_jpg -->
<a id='snippet-create_empty_jpg'></a>
```py
from empty_files.empty_files import create_empty_file
create_empty_file("temp/empty.jpg")
```
<sup><a href='/tests/test_empty_files.py#L23-L26' title='Snippet source file'>snippet source</a> | <a href='#snippet-create_empty_jpg' title='Start of snippet'>anchor</a></sup>
<!-- endSnippet -->
will create the following [image](tests/test_empty_files.test_sample.approved.jpg)
## Null Object Pattern
**Issue:** null/None causes extra checks in order to avoid errors.
**Solution:** return an empty version of the object, so methods can be used normally.
**Example:**
if `last_name` returns `""` instead of `None`,
we can write:
```python
name_length = len(person.last_name())
```
instead of :
```python
name_length = 0
if (person.last_name())
name_length = len(person.last_name())
```
## Attributions
The empty files are taken from [Simon Cropp's Empty Files](https://github.com/VerifyTests/EmptyFiles/tree/main/index).
