3. Using custom Management command

This an example to create custom special faker file as a tool for unittests. For example i need to save this script into file of app_blog.blogfaker.py

from djipsum.faker import FakerModel


def postfaker(maximum=10):
    """
    Sample custom class generator.
    Djipsum already handled with `--max` command.
    But, recomended to set default integer `maximum` like above.
    """
    faker = FakerModel(
        app='app_blog',
        model='Post'
    )
    object_list = [] # for print out after created the objects.

    for _ in range(maximum):
        fields = {
            'user': faker.fake_relations(
                type='fk',
                field_name='user'
            ),
            'title': faker.fake.text(max_nb_chars=100),
            'slug': faker.fake.slug(
                faker.fake.text(max_nb_chars=50)
            ),
            'categories': faker.fake_relations(
                type='m2m',
                field_name='categories'
            ),
            'description': ' '.join(faker.fake.paragraphs()),
            'created': str(faker.fake.date_time()),
            'publish': faker.fake_boolean(),
        }
        instance = faker.create(fields)
        object_list.append(instance)
    return object_list

And then, you also can access it via djipsum command such as below. This should be create 2 objects.

./manage.py djipsum --auto_gen --custom_generator=app_blog.blogfaker.postfaker --max=2

# OR

./manage.py djipsum -auto -cg=app_blog.blogfaker.postfaker --max=2
