Small wrapper around faker, to make values optional!

Note that faker added own optional proxy, which however can be used only with callables. This is why in version 2.0.0 we renamed our method to none_or.

Example

>>> from faker import Faker
>>> import optional_faker
>>>
>>> fake = Faker()
>>> Faker.seed(1555)
>>>
>>> # `fake.none_or` can take any value, and return it, or None.
>>> fake.none_or(fake.pystr())
'scHhghRDleajCHjEYWAu'
>>> fake.none_or(fake.pystr())
None
>>> # or it can take callable, and *args with **kwargs
>>> # that will be passed to this callable.
>>> fake.none_or(fake.pystr, 1, max_chars=10)
'zmZUcJVTYX'
>>> fake.none_or(fake.pystr, 1, max_chars=10)
None
>>> # there is no explicit check is callable a faker part,
>>> # so you can pass anything.
>>> fake.none_or(lambda: "my callable!")
'my callable!'
>>> fake.none_or(lambda: "my callable!")
None
