faker.js contains a super useful generator method Faker.fake for combining faker API methods using a mustache string format.
Example:
console.log(faker.fake("{{name.lastName}}, {{name.firstName}} {{name.suffix}}"));
// outputs: "Marks, Dean Sr."
This will interpolate the format string with the value of methods name.lastName(), name.firstName(), and name.suffix()

As of version v2.0.0 faker.js has support for multiple localities.
The default language locale is set to English.
Setting a new locale is simple:
// sets locale to de
faker.setLocale("de");
// or
faker.locale = "de";
As of vesion v3.0.0 faker.js supports incremental loading of locales.
By default, requiring faker will include all locale data.
In a production environment, you may only want to include the locale data for a specific set of locales.
// loads only de locale
var faker = require('@benmaruchu/faker/locale/de');
If you want consistent results, you can set your own seed:
faker.seed(123);
var firstRandom = faker.random.number();
// Setting the seed again resets the sequence.
faker.seed(123);
var secondRandom = faker.random.number();
console.log(firstRandom === secondRandom);
npm install .
