#Shorba

Shorba is a small tool to generate dummy/fake data in Go based on struct (serving as model) and insert those data into mongodb.

let's suppose you have a struct like that:

type Post struct {
	ID string `bson:"_id,omitempty"`
	Title string `bson:"title"`
	Content string `bson:"content"`
	PublishDate time.Time `bson:"publishDate"`
}

and you want to populate 200 fake posts for testing and develpoment purposes, you can use shorba to do that for you, like this:

postModel := &Post{}
shorba.populate("posts", &postModel, 200)

this should generate 200 different posts and insert them into collection 'posts'

####Usage

first install shorba

go get github.com/eslammostafa/shorba

import it

import (
	...
	"github.com/eslammostafa/shorba"
)

connect to your mongodb

shorba.Connect("localhost", "username", "password", "dbname")

if there is no username nor password write "" instead of each one

shorba.Connect("localhost", "", "", "dbname")

populate data

postModel := &Post{}
shorba.populate("posts", &postModel, 135)
