hoaxer.fake()

faker.js/hoaxer.js contains a super useful generator method hoaxer.fake for combining faker/hoaxer API methods using a mustache string format.

Example:

console.log(hoaxer.fake("{{name.lastName}}, {{name.firstName}} {{name.suffix}}"));
// outputs: "Marks, Dean Sr."

This will interpolate the format string with the value of methods name.lastName(), name.firstName(), and name.suffix()

Localization

faker.js/hoaxer.js has support for multiple localities.

The default language locale is set to English.

Setting a new locale is simple:

// sets locale to de
hoaxer.locale = "de";

• az
• ar
• cz
• de
• de_AT
• de_CH
• en
• en_AU
• en_AU_ocker
• en_BORK
• en_CA
• en_GB
• en_IE
• en_IND
• en_US
• en_ZA
• es
• es_MX
• fa
• fi
• fr
• fr_CA
• fr_CH
• ge
• hy
• hr
• id_ID
• it
• ja
• ko
• nb_NO
• ne
• nl
• nl_BE
• pl
• pt_BR
• pt_PT
• ro
• ru
• sk
• sv
• tr
• uk
• vi
• zh_CN
• zh_TW

Individual Localization Packages

faker.js/hoaxer.js supports incremental loading of locales.

By default, requiring hoaxer will include all locale data.

In a production environment, you may only want to include the locale data for a specific set of locales.

// loads only de locale
var hoaxer = require('hoaxer/locale/de');

Setting a randomness seed

If you want consistent results, you can set your own seed:

hoaxer.seed(123);

var firstRandom = hoaxer.datatype.number();

// Setting the seed again resets the sequence.
hoaxer.seed(123);

var secondRandom = hoaxer.datatype.number();

console.log(firstRandom === secondRandom);

Tests

npm install .
make test

Building faker.js

faker uses gulp to automate its build process. Each build operation is a separate task which can be run independently.

Browser Bundle

npm run browser

Building JSDocs

JSDOC v3 HTML API documentation

npm run jsdoc

Building ReadMe

The ReadMe.md file for faker.js is automatically generated and should not be modified directly. All updates to ReadMe.md should be performed in ./build/src/docs.md and then the build script should be run.

npm run readme

Version Release Schedule

faker.js is a popular project used by many organizations and individuals in production settings. Major and Minor version releases are generally on a monthly schedule. Bugs fixes are addressed by severity and fixed as soon as possible.

If you require the absolute latest version of faker.js the master branch @ http://github.com/Unzor/hoaxer/ should always be up to date and working.
