Factoreally

Generate realistic test data from real data patterns.

Factoreally involves two steps:

1. Analyze sample data → create a factory spec based on input data
2. Use the factory spec → generate realistic data based on the factory spec

It automatically detects patterns (UUIDs, timestamps, email formats, numeric distributions) and generates statistically accurate test data that matches your real data.

Features

• Pattern detection: UUIDs, timestamps, emails, phone numbers, custom formats
• Statistical accuracy: Maintains distributions and value frequencies
• Dynamic objects: Detects and generates varying dictionary keys
• Null handling: Preserves optional field probabilities
• Batch generation: Efficiently generate thousands of records

Quick Start

1. Analyze sample data to create a factory spec

# Basic spec generation
factoreally create --in real_user_payloads.json --out user.spec.json

# With Pydantic model to identify dynamic dictionary fields
factoreally create \
  --in user_payloads.json \
  --out user.spec.json \
  --model myapp.models.UserModel

2. Use the factory spec to generate data

from factoreally import Factory

# Create factory from spec
user_factory = Factory("user.spec.json")

# Generate single object
user_data = user_factory.build()

# Generate batch
users = user_factory[:1000]

# Integrate with Pydantic models
user = UserModel.model_validate(user_factory.build())

Customization

# Create factory with built-in overrides
admin_factory = Factory(spec, role="admin", permissions__level="high")

# Per-generation overrides
user = user_factory.build(email="[e-mail]")

# Nested field overrides
user = user_factory.build(address__country="US", profile__verified=True)

# Array element overrides
user = user_factory.build(items__name="default", items__value=None)  # override all array elements
user = user_factory.build(items__0__name="first", items__0_value=1) # override specific array index

# Dynamic overrides with callables
user = user_factory.build(
    id=lambda: str(uuid.uuid4()),  # Generate new value
    name=lambda value: value.upper(),  # Transform generated value
    display_name=lambda value, obj: f"{value} ({obj['role']})"  # Use context of entire generated object
)

Pydantic Integration

Provide a Pydantic model to help identify dynamic dictionary fields:

class UserEvent(BaseModel):
    user_id: str
    metadata: dict[str, str]  # Factoreally treats this as dynamic dict

factoreally create --in events.json --out events.spec.json --model myapp.models.UserEvent
