Fake

Fake is a fake data generator for Go (Golang), heavily inspired by the forgery and ffaker Ruby gems.

About

Most data and methods are ported from forgery/ffaker Ruby gems. For the list of available methods please look at https://godoc.org/github.com/icrowley/fake. Currently english and russian languages are available. Feel free to add other languages, but don't forget to regenerate data.go file using github.com/mjibson/esc tool and esc -o data.go -pkg fake data command because Fake embeds files unless you call UseExternalData(true) in order to be able to work file without dependencies when compiled.

Install

go get github.com/icrowley/fake

Import

import (
  "github.com/icrowley/fake"
)

Documentation

Test

To run the project tests:

cd test
go test

Examples

name := fake.FirstName()
fullname = := fake.FullName()
product := fake.Product()

Changing language:

err := fake.SetLang("ru")
if err != nil {
  panic(err)
}
password := fake.SimplePassword()

Using english fallback:

err := fake.SetLang("ru")
if err != nil {
  panic(err)
}
fake.EnFallback(true)
password := fake.Paragraph()

Using external data:

fake.UseExternalData(true)
password := fake.Paragraph()
