FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:

If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.

Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

Informations about the package random-english

Random English

codecov.io

Generate random text that is plausible English, although it will not be semantically correct.

Getting Started

Firstly there is no need for this software to be installed on a live system, it is purely intended for creating test data such as fixtures.

Prerequisites

PHP 7.2 is required

Installing

Usage

Scripts

Random Sentences

The parameter 4 is the number of sentences to return

Random Paragraphs

The parameter 2 is the number of random paragraphs

PHP

Prime the generator with a configuration as below, or leave blank to choose random structures from config/sentence-structure.cfg

Configuration

Sentence structures are defined in config/sentence-structure.cfg and look like this

The random generation works as follows:

A random line from the configuration file is chosen.
Any words not in square brackets are output as is.
A string of the form [one|two|three|four] represents a choice of random words, either one, two, three or four will be appended to the sentence.
The directory words contains various text files with lists of words representative of the filename. A directive of [noun] will result in the file words/english_nouns.txt being loaded and a random word chosen from the file.
Exceptions
- [country] will load words/english_countries.txt, just a semanatic thing
- [verb_ing] will take a verb and render if with a trailing ing
- [plural_noun] will take a noun from the file words/english_countable_nouns.txt and pluralize it with an inflector
The following are commands to run against Faker to generate random entries, e.g. [lastName] will generate a last name.

Running the tests

1) Build Docker image and enter it in a bash shell

Note the first step may take several minutes if not previously built.

A bash prompt will appear like this:
