New version (2.9) of factory_boy uses different base class for custom fields.

We are using OrderedDeclaration https://github.com/mimesis-lab/mimesis-factory/blob/master/mimesis_factory/main.py#L5

While the new version is using BaseDeclaration.

There are two possible ways:

1. To drop 2.8 support (is was initially made this way to make pytest-factoryboy work
2. To support both versions and choose base class conditionally
3. Find something we can safely inherit from

https://pypi.org/project/mimesis-factory/

There's a typo there:
https://github.com/mimesis-lab/mimesis-factory/blob/master/mimesis_factory.py#L18

Dependabot couldn't authenticate with https://pypi.python.org/simple/.

You can provide authentication details in your Dependabot dashboard by clicking into the account menu (in the top right) and selecting 'Config variables'.

It's happening for some classes because we use this:

class LocaleDepProvider(Address, Business, Code, Datetime,
                        Personal, Science, Text, Food):
    pass


class CommonProvider(ClothingSizes, Development, File, Hardware,
                     Internet, Numbers, Path, Structured, Transport,
                     UnitSystem, Games, Cryptographic):
    pass


class Provider(LocaleDepProvider, CommonProvider):
    pass

Where each class has attribute self._data. Given how the inheritance tree works, errors are possible.

It isn't possible to use mimesis-factory with mimesis==5.*.

Please could you release a version that supports this? 🙏🏻

I'm not sure how to seed fields in a factory class (or ideally, the entire class at once).

I tried doing something like the following, which does not work.

class AccountFactory(factory.Factory):
    class Meta(object):
        model = Account

    email = MimesisField('email', seed="randomseed")

Any pointers?

Thank you!

We need to provide django support.

Things to be done:

1. Tests
2. Docs on how to bind these two packages together
3. Examples

We need to be sure that this line works: https://github.com/lk-geimfari/mimesis/blob/master/mimesis/schema.py#L41

It is not tested yet. It is planned for the next release.

I suggest use Field which was added in version 1.0.0 instead Provider.

Is there any way to install this from source using pip? I would like to use some of the provider functionality that has been added in since the 0.1.0 release last June. I tried

pip install -e git+https://github.com/mimesis-lab/mimesis-factory.git#egg=mimesis_factory

, but it is failing because there is no setup.py in the repository. This is the error I got:

$ pip install -e git+https://github.com/mimesis-lab/mimesis-factory.git#egg=mimesis_factory

What is the recommended way to install a more recent version of mimesis-factory? I'd be happy to help out if the solution is to add a setup.py.

I have spent an hour to make mimesis and factory_boy work together.
@lk-geimfari do you like my approach?

I have created a gist as a proof of a concept: https://gist.github.com/sobolevn/19032ff9ed03a167a3cc3337ebaebd99

@sobolevn please add support mimesis 4.х

We need to support pytest-factoryboy.

Things we need to test:

• https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-factoryboy#fixture-partial-specialization
• https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-factoryboy#subfactory
• https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-factoryboy#related-factory

Since setup.py imports the module itself, it tries also import it's dependencies.
But there are no dependencies at this time yet. So, installation breaks.

Here's the line I am talking about:
https://github.com/mimesis-lab/mimesis-factory/blob/master/setup.py#L3

Output:

Hey factory-boy have released version 3 but it looks like mimesis-factory depends on factory-boy (>=2.11,<3.0). Could we get this supported?

Much thanks for a great library!

Starting from Mimesis version 15.0.0, this package will become a part of Mimesis. Once this transition is completed, this repository will be archived.

Rationale

This will help us always keep this package up-to-date.

Deps

Mimesis will still remain dependency-free. To utilize this plugin, developers will need to install factory_boy explicitly.

Usage

Here is an example of usage:

import factory
from mimesis.plugins.factory import MimesisField

from account import Account


class AccountFactory(factory.Factory):
    class Meta(object):
        model = Account

    username = MimesisField('username', template='l_d')
    name = MimesisField('name', gender='female')
    surname = MimesisField('surname', gender='female')
    age = MimesisField('age', minimum=18, maximum=90)
    email = factory.LazyAttribute(
        lambda instance: '{0}@example.org'.format(instance.username)
    )
    access_token = MimesisField('token', entropy=32)

For discussion purposes

One thing I'm not sure about is the class name. Should we keep MimesisField, or perhaps use something like FactoryField?

There some issues with class Provider. We should fix ones.
