Generate fake but valid data filled databases for test purposes using most popular patterns(AFAIK).
Current support is sqlite, mysql, postgresql, mongodb.
The installation through pypi also retrieves 'requirements'. Which are : fake-factory, pymongo, psycopg2
pip install fake2db
For psycopg2 to install you need pg_config in your system.
On Mac, the solution is to install postgresql:
brew install postgresql
On CentOS, the solution is to install postgresql-devel:
sudo yum install postgresql-devel
mysql connector is needed for mysql db generation:
It is as follows, at this point in time, fake2db accepts rows and db argument.
--rows argument is pretty clear...
--db argument takes 4 possible options : sqlite, mysql, postgresql, mongodb
--name argument is OPTIONAL. When it is absent fake2db will name db's randomly.
--host argument is OPTIONAL. Hostname to use for database connection. Not used for sqlite.
--port argument is OPTIONAL. Port to use for database connection. Not used for sqlite.
fake2db --rows 200 --db sqlite
> fake2db --rows 1500 --db postgresql --name test_database_postgre
In addition to the databases supported in the db argument, you can also run fake2db with FoundationDB SQL Layer. Once SQL Layer is installed, simply use the postgresql generator and specify the SQL Layer port. For example:
fake2db --rows --db postgresql --port 15432
