readonly length: number
}>Validates that a value has at least the specified length. Works with strings and arrays.
Details
JSON Schema:
This check corresponds to the minLength constraint for strings or the
minItems constraint for arrays in JSON Schema.
Arbitrary:
When generating test data with fast-check, this applies a minLength
constraint to ensure generated strings or arrays have at least the required
length.
Example (Checking minimum length)
import { Schema } from "effect"
const NonEmptyStringSchema = Schema.String.check(Schema.isMinLength(1))
const NonEmptyArraySchema = Schema.Array(Schema.Number).check(Schema.isMinLength(1))export function function isMinLength(
minLength: number,
annotations?: Annotations.Filter
): SchemaAST.Filter<{
readonly length: number
}>

) => FilterOutput,
annotations?: Annotations.Filter | undefined,
abort?: boolean
) => SchemaAST.Filter<T>
Creates a custom validation filter from a predicate function.
Details
The predicate receives the decoded input value, the schema AST, and parse
options, and returns a FilterOutput. Non-success outputs are normalized into
schema issues. The annotations parameter annotates the filter itself; with
the default formatter, failures use message first, expected second, and
<filter> when neither is provided.
When abort is true, parsing stops after this filter fails instead of
collecting later check failures.
Example (Reporting failure at a nested path)
import { Schema } from "effect"
const schema = Schema.Struct({ password: Schema.String, confirmPassword: Schema.String }).check(
Schema.makeFilter((o) =>
o.password === o.confirmPassword
? undefined
: { path: ["password"], issue: "password and confirmPassword must match" }
)
)
console.log(String(Schema.decodeUnknownExit(schema)({ password: "123456", confirmPassword: "1234567" })))
// Failure(Cause([Fail(SchemaError: password and confirmPassword must match
// at ["password"])]))
Example (Reporting multiple failures at once)
import { Schema } from "effect"
const schema = Schema.Struct({ a: Schema.Finite, b: Schema.Finite, c: Schema.Finite }).check(
Schema.makeFilter((o) => {
const issues: Array<Schema.FilterIssue> = []
if (o.a > 0) {
if (o.b <= 0) issues.push({ path: ["b"], issue: "b must be greater than 0" })
if (o.c <= 0) issues.push({ path: ["c"], issue: "c must be greater than 0" })
}
return issues
})
)
console.log(String(Schema.decodeUnknownExit(schema)({ a: 1, b: 0, c: 0 })))

Annotations.Augment.expected?: string | undefinedHuman-readable description of what a value is expected to satisfy.
Details
For filter and refinement failures, the default formatter uses
message first, then expected, and finally falls back to <filter>.
Use this to name a failed filter in the default message:
Expected <expected>, got <actual>.
expected: `a value with a length of at least ${minLength: numberminLength}`,
Annotations.Filter.meta?: Annotations.Meta | undefined(property) Annotations.Filter.meta?: {

Optional metadata used to identify or extend the filter with custom data.

Optional hints used by arbitrary derivation for this filter.
Details
The same annotation can be attached to a single filter or a
FilterGroup. Group hints apply to the same schema node while child
filters are still collected and checked normally.
