API

Alternatively from the CLI, you can use this library programmatically:

import { generateFakeContent } from '@astro-content/faker';

await generateFakeContent(mdTemplatePath, outDir, count).catch((error) => {
  console.log(error);
});

See also the demo project to play with.

Recommendations

For the best experience, use these helpers in combination with remark-lint-frontmatter-schema.
