Deprecated Function: strlen(): Passing null to parameter #1 ($string) of type string is deprecated in Drupal\key\Plugin\KeyType\EncryptionKeyType->validateKeyValue() (line 124 of modules/contrib/key/src/Plugin/KeyType/EncryptionKeyType.php)

I'm seeing a similar thing elsewhere

Deprecated function: substr(): Passing null to parameter #1 ($string) of type string is deprecated in Drupal\key\Plugin\KeyProviderBase::obscureValue() (line 56 of modules/contrib/key/src/Plugin/KeyProviderBase.php).

Fixed deprecated error mentioned #5

In the KeyProviderBase::obscureValue() class, there's a few uses of $key_value as a string in lines 66 and 67 which would also need to be checked. The best solution is to actually check whether $key_value is a string at the start of that function and immediately return an empty string ('').

Addressed #7 and raised an MR. Please review.

This looks like a duplicate? 🐛 Error: Call to a member function getKeyValue() on null and Deprecated function: strlen(): Passing null to parameter #1 ($string) Active

No, it's not duplicate of 🐛 Error: Call to a member function getKeyValue() on null and Deprecated function: strlen(): Passing null to parameter #1 ($string) Active and different error messages proving that.

Reviewed and tested:

• #7 - addressed
• error message gone after applying the patch from the merge request
