Interactive TUI database seeder

Copia

---

Seed your database without the hassle.

Most frameworks either ship a seeder with questionable decisions, or don't ship one at all. Copia is a TUI-based database seeder with its own declarative language — you describe what data you want, column by column, and Copia generates and inserts it.

id:         uuid()
username:   username()
email:      email(safe=True)
role:       enum('admin', 'editor', 'viewer')
created_at: past_date()

Features

• Simple language — if you know what a function call looks like, you know the Copia DSL
• Realistic data — built on Faker, 25+ generators out of the box
• Relational-aware — ref('table.column') samples from existing rows, so foreign keys just work
• Interactive TUI — write, preview, and insert without leaving your terminal
• Extensible — add your own generators with a single function

Installation

pip install copia

Requires Python 3.13+. MySQL and MariaDB are supported.

Quickstart

copia init       # generate a config template
copia            # launch the TUI
