Other Generators

These generators are providing services of generating values in very different manner and can't be easily categorized as others.

XOR Generator

This type of generator chooses between given Value Generators and selects one randomly to generate the result value while others remain idle.

Examples

In the following examples, there is this probabilistic decision on if the generated value shall be 0 or 1. This XOR Generator then automatically triggers one Constant Value Generator or another.

const config: XORConfiguration = {
  generators: {
    zero: { type: 'constant-value', config: { value: 0 } },
    one: { type: 'constant-value', config: { value: 1 } },
  }
}

const generator = new XORGenerator(config);

console.log(generator.generate());

Output

const fabricator = new Fabricator(schema);

console.log(fabricator.generate());

Output

{ value: 1 }
