oddsprout 0.1.2

Generate random JSON with no schemas involved

oddsprout

Oddsprout is a configurable CLI tool and a Python library for generating random JSONs with no schemas involved. I developed this tool out of necessity to test a JSON parser but all solutions I found online involved generating data based on templates.

See the documentation for usage.

Installation

If you only intend to use it as a CLI tool:

uvx oddsprout

---

Otherwise, install the library from PyPI:

pip install oddsprout

Or from source:

pip install git+https://github.com/trag1c/oddsprout.git
