Zefaker v0.8

Changes the Faker implementation to use DataFaker

zefaker v0.6

This release features an updated Groovy runtime to 3 and supports running with Java 15+, previous builds only worked on Java 8.
You can also use the new JSON lines support to export in a format that can be used with tools like esbulk

v0.5.RC1

The main component was rewritten to make adding new generators/output formats easier.

zefaker now comes with the capability to:

• Export to CSV : zefaker -f input.groovy -output data.csv -csv
• Export to JSON: zefaker -f input.groovy -output data.json -json
• Export to SQL COPY (for Postgres): zefaker -f input.groovy -output data.sql -table table_name -sql (add useSQLCOPY() in input.groovy)

The archives contain a bin directory with shell script for Linux and batch script for Windows for convenient use, but you can still call zefaker-all.jar (in the lib folder) directly with java -jar

v0.4 beta - Export to SQL INSERTs!

Introduces functionality for exporting to SQL INSERTs in a file, in addition to the existing Excel file exports using the same groovy file as input.

You can now use the following form to export an SQL file

$ java -jar zefaker.jar -f=example.groovy -rows=1000 -output=people-data.sql -sql -table="people_table"

Use the quoteIdentifiersAs function to enable column quoting for your database, currently valid arguments for that function are "mysql", "postgres", "mssql"

zefaker v0.3

This release includes the following changes:

• Add -x flag to allow overwriting existing files
• Prevent users from overwriting existing data files by default
• Add -vvv flag for verbose output, show progress
• Change to SXSSFWorkbook for streaming and threading
• Add examples directory with basic and slightly advanced example
