data-anonymizer

Anonymizes batches of data, replacing user info with fake user info, creating a map of old info to new info in case de-anonymization is necessary

Anonymizing data

Run npx dce-data-anonymizer --anonymize --real=/path/to/data-to-anonymize.json --anon=/path/to/output-file.json --code=/path/to/de-anonymizer-code.txt

--real=/file.json is a file where each line is a json object to anonymize

--anon=/file.json is an output file that will be the identical format as the real data, but with the following fields anonymized: userId, userFirstName, userLastName, userEmail, loginId

--code=/file.txt is an output file containing text that is required to de-anonymize the anonymized data, should that ever be necessary. Discard this file if you don't need it

De-anonymize data

You'll need the anonymized data, plus the de-anonymization code that was exported when anonymizing.

Run npx dce-data-anonymizer --deanonymize --anon=/path/to/input-anon-data-file.json --code=/path/to/de-anonymizer-code.txt --real=/path/to/output-real-data.json

--anon=/file.json is a file where each line is a json object to de-anonymize

--code=/file.txt the de-anonymization code that was exported when the data was anonymized

--real=/file.json is an output file that will be the identical format as the anon data, but with the following fields de-anonymized: userId, userFirstName, userLastName, userEmail, loginId
