Feature Request - Alphanumeric field

[jade290]

Hello,

Will there be an alphanumeric field in the future?

{{ alphanumeric 10 }}

Yes I've thought about this! I'd like to do something using regex syntax so users can define an alphanumeric pattern, eg: [A-Z]{2}[0-9]{3}[A-Z]{2} but I need to set aside some time to investigate it.

In the meantime I've thrown together a customer helper you can use that'll generate a completely random pattern of characters:

const customHelpers = {
  alphanumeric(count) {
    let string = '';
    for (let i = 0; i < count; i++) {
      string += dummyjson.utils.random() > 0.5
        ? dummyjson.utils.randomChar()
        : dummyjson.utils.randomInt(0, 9)
    }
    return string;
  }
}

const template = `{{alphanumeric 10}}`
const result = dummyjson.parse(template, { helpers: customHelpers });
