# Forgery
[](https://travis-ci.org/sevenwire/forgery)
[](https://codeclimate.com/github/sevenwire/forgery)
**A Problem**:
It's harder than _absolutely easy_ to make meaningful, simple, data for testing and development.
**A Solution**:
A fake data generator that provides not only a host of basics and a rememberable syntax, but a customizable library to boot.
Welcome to Forgery, an excellent solution to a problem so hard you didn't know it was there.
## Using
You'll want to read individual Forgery categories for more information, but these are the basics:
```ruby
Forgery(:basic).password
#=> "b6qZTQEH"
Forgery(:internet).email_address
#=> "[email protected]"
Forgery(:monetary).money
#=> "1.58"
Forgery(:lorem_ipsum).words(10)
#=> "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Aliquam egestas."
Forgery(:monetary).formatted_money :min => 100, :max => 1000
#=> "$923.36"
```
And many many more!
Alternatively you can write it like this:
```ruby
Forgery::Basic.hex_color
Forgery::Name.full_name
Forgery::Personal.shirt_size
```
In addition, you can always write your own dictionaries and formats, overriding the ones in the gem.
Fully explained here.
## Installing
Like any gem, you can install Forgery two ways depending on it's use.
For normal Ruby development, you need simply use:
```bash
gem install forgery
```
This will add it to your gem library, just like any normal gem.
You can then use it like any normal gem library.
See examples for more.
### Rails 3.x
If you're using Rails 3.x you need to do a few extra things (that are probably rote).
First step is to add it to your `Rails.root/Gemfile`, we also suggest specifying the latest version (found on rubygems):
```ruby
gem 'forgery', '0.6.0'
```
Then you'll need to run `bundle install` to install and lock in your new gem.
Next you'll want to run the special Rails 3 generator:
```bash
bundle exec rails generate forgery
```
### Rails 2.x
For **Rails 2.x** you'll need to do something a little different, by first editing your `Rails.root/config/environment.rb` and adding this to the configuration block:
```ruby
config.gem 'forgery'
```
Then you'll need to run this in your command line:
```bash
script/generate forgery
```
### Generators
This Rails generators will make these directories in your Rails.root directory:
- Rails.root/lib/forgery
- Rails.root/lib/forgery/dictionaries
- Rails.root/lib/forgery/extensions
- Rails.root/lib/forgery/forgeries
- Rails.root/lib/forgery/formats
You can then use these directories to write your own dictionaries, class extensions, forgeries, and formats.
