Date generators

Here are listed predefined date generators.

Date in range

This generator generates dates within a specified range.

Configuration

Keep in mind the DateTimeDeclaration is a specific type to ease the bounds definition in the configuration. Have a look on these examples:

Declaring the date as number

// Using a date object
const declaration: DateTimeDeclaration = new Date();

// Using string-based declaration of date
const declaration1: DateTimeDeclaration = '1999-12-31';

// Using string-based declaration of date and time without ms
const declaration2: DateTimeDeclaration = '1999-12-31T11:25:31';

// Using string-based declaration of date and time with ms
const declaration3: DateTimeDeclaration = '1999-12-31T11:25:31.975';

// Using number-based declaration of date (1970-01-01 at midnight)
const declaration1: DateTimeDeclaration = 0;

// Using number-based declaration of date (2014-09-12 at 23:52:25)
const declaration2: DateTimeDeclaration = 1413157945123;

// Using number-based declaration of date (1925-03-22 at 00:07:35)
const declaration2: DateTimeDeclaration = -1413157945123;

Here you can see how to define the whole configuration:

export type DateTimeInRangeGeneratorConfig = {
  from: DateTimeDeclaration;
  to: DateTimeDeclaration;
} & ValueGeneratorConfig;

const config: DateTimeInRangeGeneratorConfig = {
  from: '1999-12-31T11:25:31.975',
  to: 1413157945123
};

};

const generator = new DateTimeInRangeGenerator(config);

console.log(generator.generate());

    fields: {
        value: {
            type: 'range-date-time',
            config: {
              from: '1999-12-31T11:25:31.975',
              to: 1413157945123
            }
        }
    }
}

const fabricator = new Fabricator(schema);

console.log(fabricator.generate());

Output

{ value: 2006-01-17T09:42:39.858Z }
