# FactoryGirlElixir

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/sinetris/factory_girl_elixir.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/sinetris/factory_girl_elixir)

Minimal implementation of Ruby's [factory_girl](http://github.com/thoughtbot/factory_girl) in Elixir.

This is a rewrite of the [factory_boy](https://github.com/inkr/factory_boy) project to make it work on Elixir v1.0.x.

## Usage

Add FactoryGirlElixir as a dependency in your `mix.exs` file.

```elixir

defp deps do

  [

    {:factory_girl_elixir, "~> 0.1.1"}

  ]

end

```

You should also update your applications list to include both projects:

```elixir

def application do

  [applications: [:factory_girl_elixir]]

end

```

After you are done, run `mix deps.get` in your shell to fetch the dependencies.

## Defining a Factory

```elixir

defmodule Factory do

  use FactoryGirlElixir.Factory

  factory :user do

    field :password, "secret"

    # create a sequence using an anonymous functions

    field :username, fn(n) ->

      "username#{n}"

    end

    # or an anonymous functions shortcut

    field :email, &("foo#{&1}@example.com")

  end

  factory :assets do

    field :name, "bob"

  end

end

```

Then query the module to get a list of attributes for your record

```elixir

user = Factory.attributes_for(:user) #=> %{password: "secret", username: "username1", email: "[email protected]"}

parametrized_user = user |> Factory.parametrize

#=> %{"email" => "[email protected]", "password" => "secret", "username" => "username1"}

```

You can override attributes

```elixir

user = Factory.attributes_for(:user, email: "[email protected]")

#=> %{password: "secret", username: "username1", email: "[email protected]"}

```
