# Data for --source 'generate'

When `--source 'generate'` is specified, `--count` is required to specify the number of users to generate.
For each generated user, a pod is generated and filled with dummy files containing random data, with various sizes ranges from 10 byte to 10MB.

# Data for --source 'dir'

For `--source 'dir'`, the `--dir` option requires a "dir with the generated data".
This dir is generated with [ldbc-snb-decentralized](https://github.com/rubensworks/ldbc-snb-decentralized.js):

```
git clone https://github.com/rubensworks/ldbc-snb-decentralized.js.git
cd ldbc-snb-decentralized.js
npm install
docker pull rubensworks/ldbc_snb_datagen:latest
bin/ldbc-snb-decentralized generate --scale 0.1 --overwrite --fragmentConfig config-posts-to-person.json
```

(`config-posts-to-person.json` can be found in this repo)
