- Add @faker-js/faker v10.1.0 dependency
- Implement $faker system variable with dot notation syntax (e.g., {{$faker.internet.email}})
- Support parameters with space-separated values (e.g., {{$faker.number.int 1 100}})
- Add auto-completion for 15 popular Faker methods
- Fix has() and get() methods in SystemVariableProvider to support compound variables
- Add FakerVariableName constant and IncorrectFakerVariableFormat warning message
- Update package.json keywords with 'faker' and 'fake data'
This feature allows users to generate realistic fake data for testing HTTP APIs
without manually creating dummy data. Users can access 100+ Faker.js methods through
the familiar system variable syntax.
Example usage:
POST https://api.example.com/users
Content-Type: application/json
{
"email": "{{$faker.internet.email}}",
"name": "{{$faker.person.fullName}}",
"age": {{$faker.number.int 18 65}}
}
