Please note, this is still very early development and has not been tested in a production envirnoment!

$ npm i faux.js
# or
$ yarn add faux.js

Generators are individual functions that return pseudo random data.

Example 1: Create a random address

import { address } from 'faux.js';
const address = address();

/*
	{
	  country: 'United Kingdom',
	  county: 'Devon',
	  city: 'Birmingham',
	  street: 'Green Lane',
	  houseNumber: 'Red Stables',
	  postcode: 'VX53 8ZF'
	}
*/

Registers are kind of like factories. You can describe your object with built in, custom or inline functions to be group generators together for ease of use.

Example 1:

import { Register, address, rngInt } from  '../core/register';

const  user  = {
	address: address,
	age: () =>  rngInt({min: 18, max: 80})
};

const userRegister = new Register(user);

In order to generate a new user, you can call the build method on that register. Example 2a:

...
const newUser = userRegister.build();

/*
{
  address: {
    country: 'United Kingdom',
    county: 'Essex',
    city: 'Bristol',
    street: 'Kings Lane',
    houseNumber: 7,
    postcode: 'ET9 6WS'
  },
  age: 25
}
*/

If you're developing on the frontend, or are performing API integrations then you may find it very useful to couple registers up with an API. It's a fast and east way to generate data and fetch it through a restful API.

Example 3.

import { Server } from 'faux.js';

const server = new Server();

// create registers
const userRegister = new Register(user);
const account = new Register(account);

// define routes
const routes = {
    '/user': userRegister,
	'/cart': cartRegister
};

server.run(routes);

=======

• If a nested structure is optional, a config should be set to allow that nested property to be or not to be generated

1. an object can lookup the values of a parent object for conditional statements / branches
2. you should be able to wrap any fn in a probability factor to determine one of multiple outcomes
3. Override any value / property from a function generator
