samplify-rs

A Powerful and Flexible Sample Data Generator for Rust

samplify-rs is a Rust library designed to simplify the process of generating sample data for testing, prototyping, and development purposes. Leveraging Rust’s powerful procedural macros and conditional compilation features, samplify-rs allows you to automatically generate realistic and customizable sample instances of your data structures without polluting your production code.

Features

  • Automatic Derivation: Use the Sampleable derive macro to automatically implement sample generation for your structs and enums.
  • Field-Level Customization: Annotate your fields with attributes to specify value ranges, patterns, choices, lengths, and inclusion probabilities.
  • Support for Complex Structures: Handle deeply nested and complex data structures with optional fields and variations effortlessly.
  • Conditional Compilation: Enable or disable sample generation code using a feature flag, keeping your production builds clean and efficient.
  • Extensibility: Easily integrate with existing projects and extend functionality without modifying original data structures.

Getting Started

  1. Add samplify-rs to Your Project

Add the following to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
samplify-rs = "0.1.0"
  1. Include the macro in your code
use samplify_rs::Sampleable;
  1. Annotate Your Data Structures

Use #[cfg_attr(feature = "sample", derive(Sampleable))] on your structs and enums.


#[derive(Debug, Serialize, Deserialize)]
#[cfg_attr(feature = "sample", derive(Sampleable))]
struct PaymentInstruction {
    currency: String,
    amount: f64,
}

Key Benefits

  • Non-Intrusive: Does not require modification of your production codebase; sample code is conditionally compiled.
  • Customizable Data Generation: Fine-tune how sample data is generated for each field.
  • Improved Testing: Quickly generate realistic test data to enhance your testing processes.
  • Lightweight: Excludes sample generation code from production builds, ensuring optimal performance and binary size.

Example

use samplify_rs::Sampleable;
use serde::{Deserialize, Serialize};
use serde_json;

#[derive(Debug, Serialize, Deserialize, Sampleable)]
struct PaymentInstruction {
    currency: String,
    amount: f64,
}

fn main() -> Result<(), String> {
    let config_json = r#"
    {
        "amount": [10.0, 1000.0],
        "currency": ["USD", "EUR", "GBP"]
    }
    "#;
    let config_map: serde_json::Map<String, serde_json::Value> = serde_json::from_str(config_json).map_err(|e| e.to_string())?;
    let sample_payment = PaymentInstruction::sample(&config_map)?;

    println!("{:?}", sample_payment);

    Ok(())
}
