loopback-component-templates

Define complex data templates for loopback models

Installation

1. Install in you loopback project:

npm install --save loopback-component-templates

2. Create a component-config.json file in your server folder (if you don't already have one)

3. Configure options inside component-config.json. (see configuration section)

{
  "loopback-component-templates": true
}

Usage

1. Define a template config on a Model._templates property.

2. Define the templates that generate dummy data. In this example we add a remote method called _template_basic to the Product model.

const faker = require('faker/locale/en')
Product._templates = () => ({
  basic: () => ({
    name: faker.commerce.productName(),
    description: faker.lorem.sentence(),
  }),
})

TODO:

• Add way to create related/deep structures
• Add option to Validate template generators
