#Samsui

Samsui is a factory library for building PHP objects useful for setting up test data in your applications. It is mainly inspired by Rosie for JavaScript and factory_girl for Ruby.

Samsui women refers to a group of Chinese immigrants who came to Singapore to work in construction and industries. Their hardwork contributed to Singapore's development as a colony and young nation.

With Samsui, you can quickly build prototype application and generate as many data as you need for testing your prototype.

Samsui was created by and maintained by Sam Yong.
Samsui uses Travis CI to check that the code works.
Samsui uses [Scrutinizer CI] to check code quality and test coverage.
Samsui uses Composer to load and manage its dependencies.
Samsui is licensed under the BSD 3-Clause license.

##Installation

Samsui is a PHP library that manages its dependencies using Composer. You can directly use Samsui in your application through Composer:

{
    "require": {
      "mauris/samsui": "1.0.*"
    }
}

Then just run Composer:

$ php composer.phar install

##Usage

You can provide definition of your objects to Samsui:

use Samsui\Factory;

$factory = new Factory();

// define an object quickly
$factory->define('person')
	->sequence('personId')
	->attr('firstName', 'James')
    ->attr('lastName', 'Clark')
    ->attr('email', function ($i, $o) {
        return strtolower($o->firstName . '.' . $o->lastName . '@example.com');
    })
	->attr('createdTime', function () {
		return time();
	});

You can build one at a time, or hundreds of them on the go!

// build them on the go!
$person = $factory->build('person');

// or build many!~
$people = $factory->build('person', 500);

The output of a person object would be (well, after JSON encoding):

{
    "personId": "1",
    "firstName": "James",
    "lastName": "Clark",
    "email": "james.clark@example.com",
    "createdTime": "1383465074"
}

You can also use Samsui's fake data generator to fill your objects with real variety and randomity:

use Samsui\Factory;
use Samsui\Generator\Generator;

$factory = new Factory();

// define an object quickly
$factory->define('person')
    ->sequence('personId')
    ->attr('firstName', Generator::person()->firstName)
    ->attr('lastName', Generator::person()->lastName)
    ->attr('email', function ($i, $o) {
        return Generator::email()->emailAddress(
            array(
                'firstName' => $o->firstName,
                'lastName' => $o->lastName,
                'domains' => array(
                    'hotmail.com',
                    'gmail.com',
                    'example.com'
                )
            )
        );
    })
    ->attr('createdTime', function () {
        return time();
    });
