Brings the popular ruby faker gem to Java and Kotlin

Data Faker

This library is a modern port of java-faker, built on Java 8, with up to date libraries and several newly added Fake Generators.

This library generates fake data, similar to other fake data generators, such as:

• Ruby's faker gem
• Perl's Data::Faker library
• Python faker package
• PHP faker library
• Javascript Faker.js library

It's useful when you're developing a new project and need some pretty data for showcase.

Usage

In pom.xml, add the following xml stanza between <dependencies> ... </dependencies>

<dependency>
    <groupId>net.datafaker</groupId>
    <artifactId>datafaker</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.0</version>
</dependency>

For Gradle users, add the following to your build.gradle file.

dependencies {
    implementation 'net.datafaker:datafaker:1.0.0'
}

In your Java code:

Faker faker = new Faker();

String name = faker.name().fullName(); // Miss Samanta Schmidt
String firstName = faker.name().firstName(); // Emory
String lastName = faker.name().lastName(); // Barton

String streetAddress = faker.address().streetAddress(); // 60018 Sawayn Brooks Suite 449

Or in your Kotlin code:

val faker = Faker()

val name = faker.name().fullName() // Miss Samanta Schmidt
val firstName = faker.name().firstName() // Emory
val lastName = faker.name().lastName() // Barton

val streetAddress = faker.address().streetAddress() // 60018 Sawayn Brooks Suite 449

This is a demo web application that uses the library.
