zandev / php-faker

PHP Version of Perl::Faker

Faker

Faker is a package that generates random fake data for you.

Requirements:

• PHP5

To use it simply call the Faker facade.

eg:

sentence(); ?>

You only need to include Faker.class.php as it autoload all the files under lib/ automatically as they are needed.

CHANGELOG

• 0.4 Updates by Stéphane R. Richard

  Deep refactoring, involving :

  • Files, classes and methods names
  • No more inheritance from Faker
  • Moved Faker to fkUtils
  • Added a facade class Faker, which provides roughly the same API as the old Faker class
  • No more __get() and __set() magic, use of explicit methods call instead

  Added SPL autoloading

• 0.3 Updates by Fiona

• 0.2 Updates by Adam for speed using PHP native functions and static variables

  From my own tests it performs roughly 10x faster than 0.1-dev -- ifunk

• 0.1-dev Initial Release
