objection-gen
generates random data for Objection.js's model and other related models.
It uses a model's jsonSchema
and relationMappings
to generate random
data and follow the relations respectively. Internally it uses
json-schema-faker
for generating fake data.
Using npm
npm install -s objection-gen
Using yarn
yarn add objection-gen
- psql
- mysql
The best Walkthough is the tests in the repo. Checkout the tests to learn how it can be used.
It is an Objection model with jsonSchema
.
It is an object used for overriding generated data.
For example, create(Account, {username: 'ausername'})
will generate
random data for all columns except for username
.
Default value of options {followRelations: true}
Set followRelations
to false
if we do not want to insert related models.
It truncates the tables populated using create
function.
Internally objection-gen
keeps the list of dirty tables.
One can add new dirty table using addDirtyModel
function if the table
is being populated through other means. After that clean
will truncate
those tables too.
It returns the random data for a model but does not inserts in to the db. The data returned by it is flat which means it does not follow the relations.
It adds a model to objection-gen
's internal list of dirty models.
Use it if one wishes to use clean()
for truncating dirty models that
are being populated manually.
