Philiprehberger.DataFaker

CI NuGet License Sponsor

Lightweight test data generator for names, emails, addresses, phones, dates, and lorem ipsum with seeded reproducibility.

Installation

dotnet add package Philiprehberger.DataFaker

Usage

using Philiprehberger.DataFaker;

var name = Faker.Name();        // "Mary Johnson"
var email = Faker.Email();      // "james.smith@example.com"
var phone = Faker.Phone();      // "(555) 867-5309"
var address = Faker.Address();  // "742 Oak Ave"

Quick Generation

using Philiprehberger.DataFaker;

var city = Faker.City();          // "Seattle"
var zip = Faker.ZipCode();        // "90210"
var company = Faker.Company();    // "Wilson Technologies"
var sentence = Faker.Sentence();  // "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur."
var flag = Faker.Bool();          // true
var age = Faker.Between(18, 65); // 34

Seeded Reproducibility

using Philiprehberger.DataFaker;

var faker = Faker.WithSeed(42);

// Same seed always produces the same sequence
var name1 = faker.Name();   // deterministic
var name2 = faker.Name();   // deterministic
var email = faker.Email();  // deterministic

Bulk Generation

using Philiprehberger.DataFaker;

var faker = Faker.WithSeed(123);

var users = Enumerable.Range(0, 100).Select(_ => new
{
    Name = faker.Name(),
    Email = faker.Email(),
    Phone = faker.Phone(),
    City = faker.City(),
    Bio = faker.Paragraph()
}).ToList();
