README

Plugin integrates FactoryMuffin and Faker for seeding and testing.

Provided features

  • CakePHP ORM integration for FactoryMuffin.
  • Easy to inject into your project.

Installing

PHP 5.6+ and Composer are required.

In your composer.json, simply add "skie/cakephp-factory-muffin": "*" to your "require" section:

{
    "require": {
        "skie/cakephp-factory-muffin": "*"
    }
}

Factory definition.

Define factory classes in App\Model\Factory namespace for application level, in ${PluginScope}\Model\Factory for plugins.

Each factory class should contain definition method that describe how to create entity.

By convention factory classes should match with Table classes name but with Factory suffix.

namespace App\Model\Factory;

use CakephpFactoryMuffin\Model\Factory\AbstractFactory;
use League\FactoryMuffin\Faker\Facade as Faker;

class UsersFactory extends AbstractFactory {

    public function definition()
    {
        return [
            'first_name' => Faker::firstName(),
            'last_name' => Faker::lastName(),
            'username' => function ($object, $saved) {
                return strtolower($object['last_name'] . '_' . $object['first_name']);
            },
            'password' => Faker::word(),
        ];
    }
}

Usage

In tests or seed files you can use CakephpFactoryMuffin\FactoryLoader objects that manage Factory loading and dispatch creation process to FactoryMuffin.

This class perform cakephp orm integration with FactoryMuffin and serve cakephp tables naming conventions like 'Users', or 'Plugin.Records'.

To load factory definition one can use FactoryLoader::load('Users'). To load all applicaiton level factories use FactoryLoader::loadAll(). And to load factories for plugin Plugin/Name use FactoryLoader::loadAll('Plugin/Name').

Example

FactoryLoader::load('Users');
$user = FactoryLoader::create('Users');
$users = FactoryLoader::seed(10, 'Users');

Here created 11 users records in database.

In tests we need to flush created objects. It could be achieved by call

FactoryLoader::getInstance()->getFactoryMuffin()->deleteSaved();
