#python #programming #data #tutorial

Hi 🙂🖐

Welcome in new post, today i will share with you How to Generates fake data In Python and module called Faker

Faker is a Python package that generates fake data for you. Whether you need to bootstrap your database, create good-looking XML documents, fill-in your persistence to stress test it, or anonymize data taken from a production service, Faker is for you.

Install it from here : pip install Faker

Examples of how to use

Generate fake names

from faker import Faker fake = Faker() print(fake.name())
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Generate fake address

from faker import Faker fake = Faker() print(fake.address())
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Generate fake ipv4

from faker import Faker from faker.providers import internet fake = Faker() fake.add_provider(internet) print(fake.ipv4_private())
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Generate fake emails

from faker import Faker fake = Faker() print(fake.email())
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Localization
faker.Faker can take a locale as an argument, to return localized data. If no localized provider is found, the factory falls back to the default LCID string for US english, ie: en_US.

from faker import Faker fake = Faker('it_IT') for _ in range(10): print(fake.name())
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
