Dummies Factory

Concept

Have you ever tried to build a UI or test some functions for your app but struggled to create the "dummy array" to test your workflow before releasing?

Well, worry no more about that, our tool will generate these dummy objects for you using your specifications to match its use-cases in your project and to prevent any mismatches among your data while testing.

Pre-Requirements

You only need a node environment to use this tool.

If you're using React or Next JS, you can use this derived tool that provide you with client-side handlers to help you test faster and prevent common errors: react-dummies-factory

Usage

Using this tool is a peace of cake, just follow these steps in your node environment:

Install the package:

`npm i @kaiserleap/dummies-factory`

Import the class:

• Using the import statement: import { DummiesFactory } from "@kaiserleap/dummies-factory";

• Using the require statement: const { DummiesFactory } = require("@kaiserleap/dummies-factory");

Create an array of objects

Let's say we want to create an array of employees with their basic info:

const factory = new DummiesFactory({
    arrayLength: 5,
    shape: {
        type: "object",
        properties: {
            id: { type: "string", theme: "uuid" },
            name: { type: "string", theme: "american-names" },
            age: { type: "number", min: 15, max: 60 },
            salary: {
                type: "number",
                numericType: "decimal",
                decimalPlaces: 2,
                min: 200,
                max: 1000,
            },
            address: {
                type: "object",
                properties: {
                    country: { type: "string", theme: "country" },
                    place: { type: "string", theme: "place" },
                    line1: { type: "string" },
                    line2: { type: "string" },
                },
            },
        },
    },
});

const employees = factory.getArray();
