Thank you to all our Gofakeit contributors!
Installation
go get github.com/brianvoe/gofakeit/v6
Simple Usage
import "github.com/brianvoe/gofakeit/v6"
gofakeit.Name() // Markus Moen
gofakeit.Email() // alaynawuckert@kozey.biz
gofakeit.Phone() // (570)245-7485
gofakeit.BS() // front-end
gofakeit.BeerName() // Duvel
gofakeit.Color() // MediumOrchid
gofakeit.Company() // Moen, Pagac and Wuckert
gofakeit.CreditCardNumber() // 4287271570245748
gofakeit.HackerPhrase() // Connecting the array won't do anything, we need to generate the haptic COM driver!
gofakeit.JobTitle() // Director
gofakeit.CurrencyShort() // USD
Seed
If you are using the default global usage and dont care about seeding no need to set anything. Gofakeit will seed it with a cryptographically secure number.
If you need a reproducible outcome you can set it via the Seed function call. Every example in this repo sets it for testing purposes.
import "github.com/brianvoe/gofakeit/v6"
gofakeit.Seed(0) // If 0 will use crypto/rand to generate a number
// or
gofakeit.Seed(8675309) // Set it to whatever number you want
Random Sources
Gofakeit has a few rand sources, by default it uses math.Rand and uses mutex locking to allow for safe goroutines.
If you want to use a more performant source please use NewUnlocked. Be aware that it is not goroutine safe.
import "github.com/brianvoe/gofakeit/v6"
// Uses math/rand(Pseudo) with mutex locking
faker := gofakeit.New(0)
// Uses math/rand(Pseudo) with NO mutext locking
// More performant but not goroutine safe.
faker := gofakeit.NewUnlocked(0)
// Uses crypto/rand(cryptographically secure) with mutext locking
faker := gofakeit.NewCrypto()
// Pass in your own random source
faker := gofakeit.NewCustom()
Global Rand Set
If you would like to use the simple function calls but need to use something like crypto/rand you can override the default global with the random source that you want.
import "github.com/brianvoe/gofakeit/v6"
faker := gofakeit.NewCrypto()
gofakeit.SetGlobalFaker(faker)
Struct
Gofakeit can generate random data for struct fields. For the most part it covers all the basic type as well as some non-basic like time.Time.
Struct fields can also use tags to more specifically generate data for that field type.
import "github.com/brianvoe/gofakeit/v6"
// Create structs with random injected data
type Foo struct {
Str string
Int int
Pointer *int
Name string `fake:"{firstname}"` // Any available function all lowercase
Sentence string `fake:"{sentence:3}"` // Can call with parameters
RandStr string `fake:"{randomstring:[hello,world]}"`
Number string `fake:"{number:1,10}"` // Comma separated for multiple values
Regex string `fake:"{regex:[abcdef]{5}}"` // Generate string from regex
Map map[string]int `fakesize:"2"`
Array []string `fakesize:"2"`
ArrayRange []string `fakesize:"2,6"`
Bar Bar
Skip *string `fake:"skip"` // Set to "skip" to not generate data for
SkipAlt *string `fake:"-"` // Set to "-" to not generate data for
Created time.Time // Can take in a fake tag as well as a format tag
CreatedFormat time.Time `fake:"{year}-{month}-{day}" format:"2006-01-02"`
}
type Bar struct {
Name string
Number int
Float float32
}
// Pass your struct as a pointer
var f Foo
gofakeit.Struct(&f)
fmt.Println(f.Str) // hrukpttuezptneuvunh
fmt.Println(f.Int) // -7825289004089916589
fmt.Println(*f.Pointer) // -343806609094473732
fmt.Println(f.Name) // fred
fmt.Println(f.Sentence) // Record river mind.
fmt.Println(f.RandStr) // world
fmt.Println(f.Number) // 4
fmt.Println(f.Regex) // cbdfc
fmt.Println(f.Map) // map[PxLIo:52 lxwnqhqc:846]
fmt.Println(f.Array) // cbdfc
fmt.Printf("%+v", f.Bar) // {Name:QFpZ Number:-2882647639396178786 Float:1.7636692e+37}
fmt.Println(f.Skip) // <nil>
fmt.Println(f.Created.String()) // 1908-12-07 04:14:25.685339029 +0000 UTC
// Supported formats
// int, int8, int16, int32, int64,
// uint, uint8, uint16, uint32, uint64,
// float32, float64,
// bool, string,
// array, pointers, map
// time.Time // If setting time you can also set a format tag
// Nested Struct Fields and Embedded Fields
Fakeable types
It is possible to extend a struct by implementing the Fakeable interface
in order to control the generation.
For example, this is useful when it is not possible to modify the struct that you want to fake by adding struct tags to a field but you still need to be able to control the generation process.
// Custom string that you want to generate your own data for
// or just return a static value
type CustomString string
func (c *CustomString) Fake(faker *gofakeit.Faker) (any, error) {
return CustomString("my custom string")
}
// Imagine a CustomTime type that is needed to support a custom JSON Marshaler
type CustomTime time.Time
func (c *CustomTime) Fake(faker *gofakeit.Faker) (any, error) {
return CustomTime(time.Now())
}
func (c *CustomTime) MarshalJSON() ([]byte, error) {
//...
}
// This is the struct that we cannot modify to add struct tags
type NotModifiable struct {
Token string
Value CustomString
Creation *CustomTime
}
var f NotModifiable
gofakeit.Struct(&f)
fmt.Printf("%s", f.Token) // yvqqdH
fmt.Printf("%s", f.Value) // my custom string
fmt.Printf("%s", f.Creation) // 2023-04-02 23:00:00 +0000 UTC m=+0.000000001
Custom Functions
In a lot of situations you may need to use your own random function usage for your specific needs.
If you would like to extend the usage of struct tags, generate function, available usages in the gofakeit server or gofakeit command sub packages. You can do so via the AddFuncLookup. Each function has their own lookup, if you need more reference examples you can look at each files lookups.
// Simple
gofakeit.AddFuncLookup("friendname", gofakeit.Info{
Category: "custom",
Description: "Random friend name",
Example: "bill",
Output: "string",
Generate: func(r *rand.Rand, m *gofakeit.MapParams, info *gofakeit.Info) (any, error) {
return gofakeit.RandomString([]string{"bill", "bob", "sally"}), nil
},
})
// With Params
gofakeit.AddFuncLookup("jumbleword", gofakeit.Info{
Category: "jumbleword",
Description: "Take a word and jumble it up",
Example: "loredlowlh",
Output: "string",
Params: []gofakeit.Param{
{Field: "word", Type: "string", Description: "Word you want to jumble"},
},
Generate: func(r *rand.Rand, m *gofakeit.MapParams, info *gofakeit.Info) (any, error) {
word, err := info.GetString(m, "word")
if err != nil {
return nil, err
}
split := strings.Split(word, "")
gofakeit.ShuffleStrings(split)
return strings.Join(split, ""), nil
},
})
type Foo struct {
FriendName string `fake:"{friendname}"`
JumbleWord string `fake:"{jumbleword:helloworld}"`
}
var f Foo
gofakeit.Struct(&f)
fmt.Printf("%s", f.FriendName) // bill
fmt.Printf("%s", f.JumbleWord) // loredlowlh
Templates
Generate custom outputs using golang's template engine https://pkg.go.dev/text/template.
We have added all the available functions to the template engine as well as some additional ones that are useful for template building.
Additional Available Functions
- ToUpper(s string) string // Make string upper case
- ToLower(s string) string // Make string lower case
- ToString(s any) // Convert to string
- ToDate(s string) time.Time // Convert string to date
- SpliceAny(args ...any) []any // Build a slice of anys, used with Weighted
- SpliceString(args ...string) []string // Build a slice of strings, used with Teams and RandomString
- SpliceUInt(args ...uint) []uint // Build a slice of uint, used with Dice and RandomUint
- SpliceInt(args ...int) []int // Build a slice of int, used with RandomInt
Unavailable Gofakeit functions
// Any functions that dont have a return value
- AnythingThatReturnsVoid(): void
// Not available to use in templates
- Template(co *TemplateOptions) ([]byte, error)
- RandomMapKey(mapI any) any
Example Usages
import "github.com/brianvoe/gofakeit/v6"
func main() {
// Accessing the Lines variable from within the template.
template := `
Subject: {{RandomString (SliceString "Greetings" "Hello" "Hi")}}
Dear {{LastName}},
{{RandomString (SliceString "Greetings!" "Hello there!" "Hi, how are you?")}}
{{Paragraph 1 5 10 "\n\n"}}
{{RandomString (SliceString "Warm regards" "Best wishes" "Sincerely")}}
{{$person:=Person}}
{{$person.FirstName}} {{$person.LastName}}
{{$person.Email}}
{{$person.Phone}}
`
value, err := gofakeit.Template(template, &TemplateOptions{Data: 5})
if err != nil {
fmt.Println(err)
}
fmt.Println(string(value))
}
Output:
Subject: Hello
Dear Krajcik,
Greetings!
Quia voluptatem voluptatem voluptatem. Quia voluptatem voluptatem voluptatem. Quia voluptatem voluptatem voluptatem.
