bun add @kubb/plugin-faker

pnpm

pnpm add @kubb/plugin-faker

npm

npm install @kubb/plugin-faker

yarn

yarn add @kubb/plugin-faker

Options

output

output.path

Relative path to save the Faker mocks. When output is a file it will save all models inside that file else it will create a file per schema item.

INFO

Type: string
Default: 'mocks'

import { pluginFaker } from '@kubb/plugin-faker'

const plugin = pluginFaker({
  output: {
    path: './mocks',
  },
})

output.exportAs

Name to be used for the export * as from './'

INFO

Type: string

import { pluginFaker } from '@kubb/plugin-faker'

const plugin = pluginFaker({
  output: {
    path: './mocks',
    exportAs: 'mocks',
  },
})

output.extName

Add an extension to the generated imports and exports, default it will not use an extension

INFO

Type: string

import { pluginFaker } from '@kubb/plugin-faker'

const plugin = pluginFaker({
  output: {
    path: './mocks',
    extName: '.js',
  },
})

output.exportType

Define what needs to be exported, you can also disable the export of barrel files

INFO

Type: 'barrel' | 'barrelNamed' | false

import { pluginFaker } from '@kubb/plugin-faker'

const plugin = pluginFaker({
  output: {
    path: './mocks',
    exportType: 'barrel',
  },
})

group

Group the Faker mocks based on the provided name.

group.type

Tag will group based on the operation tag inside the Swagger file.

Type: 'tag'
Required: true

group.output

TIP

When defining a custom output path, you should also update output.path to contain the same root path.

Relative path to save the grouped Faker mocks. {{tag}} will be replaced by the current tagName.

Type: string
Example: mocks/{{tag}}Controller => mocks/PetController
Default: ${output}/{{tag}}Controller

group.exportAs

Name to be used for the export * as from './

Type: string
Default: '{{tag}}Mocks'

INFO

import { pluginFaker } from '@kubb/plugin-faker'

const plugin = pluginFaker({
  output: {
    path: './mocks'
  },
  group: {
    type: 'tag',
    output: './mocks/{{tag}}Mocks',
  },
})

dateType

Choose to use date or datetime as JavaScript Date instead of string.

TYPE

'string'

faker.string.alpha()

'date'

faker.date.anytime()

INFO

Type: 'string' | 'date'

import { pluginFaker } from '@kubb/plugin-faker'

const plugin = pluginFaker({
  dateType: 'string',
})

dateParser

Which parser should be used when dateType is set to 'string'.

TIP

You can use any other library. For example, when you want to use moment you can pass moment and Kubb will add the import for moment: import moment from 'moment'.

This only works when the package is using default exports like Dayjs and Moment.

TYPE

undefined

// schema with format set to 'date'
faker.date.anytime().toString()

// schema with format set to 'time'
faker.date.anytime().toString()

'dayjs'

// schema with format set to 'date'
dayjs(faker.date.anytime()).format("YYYY-MM-DD")

// schema with format set to 'time'
dayjs(faker.date.anytime()).format("HH:mm:ss")

'moment'

// schema with format set to 'date'
moment(faker.date.anytime()).format("YYYY-MM-DD")

// schema with format set to 'time'
moment(faker.date.anytime()).format("HH:mm:ss")
