jfuzz

Generate random data from your JSON schemas.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'jfuzz'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install jfuzz

require "jfuzz"

schema_path = "path/to/your/json-schema"
Jfuzz.fuzz(schema_path)

This determines how often we leave out optional fields. The default is 0.2 meaning we will leave out optional fields 20% of the time. It can be changed by:

Jfuzz.set_nil_probability(0.5)

This determines how likely a boolean type is to have a true value. The default is 0.5

Jfuzz.set_true_probability(0.5)

You can change the min and max values of integers/numbers that are used when no minimums or maximums are supplied in your schema. The defaults are: -9999999 and 9999999.

Jfuzz.set_min_integer(10)
Jfuzz.set_max_integer(100)

You can change the min and max length of arrays. These are used to generate a random length for an array when you do no specify a min or a max length in you schema. The defaults are 1 and 100

Jfuzz.set_min_array_length(10)
Jfuzz.set_max_array_length(100)

If you want custom behaviour when fuzzing a particular type, you can change our built in default generators. This is also useful if you want to add support for your own custom type. First you must define a generator class, e.g. lets say we want to do our own string generation logic:

require "jfuzz/generators/generator"

class BetterStringGenerator < Jfuzz::Generator
    def generate
        "AMAZING STRING"
    end

    def self.type
      "string"
    end
end

Finally you need to register the generator with JFuzz by doing the following:

Jfuzz.register_generator(BetterStringGenerator)

Note. You will need to register your new generator before calling Jfuzz.fuzz

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
