Release history and notes

Sequence based identifiers are used for versioning (schema follows below):

major.minor[.revision]
  • It's always safe to upgrade within the same minor version (for example, from 0.3 to 0.3.4).
  • Minor version changes might be backwards incompatible. Read the release notes carefully before upgrading (for example, when upgrading from 0.3.4 to 0.4).
  • All backwards incompatible changes are mentioned in this document.

0.17.14

2024-11-14

  • Minor fixes.

0.17.13

2024-10-30

  • Drop EOL Python 3.8 support.

0.17.12

2024-09-10

  • Minor fixes.

0.17.11

2023-11-20

  • Minor documentation fixes.

0.17.10

2023-11-19

  • Make text_extractor_cls and text_augmenter_cls arguments of the AugmentFileFromDirProvider provider access string values (to load requested class from path given).
  • Add TextaugmentAugmenter based on textaugment package (very lightweight) and make it a default text augmenter.
  • Minor documentation fixes.
  • Optimized GitHub CI.

0.17.9

2023-10-10

  • Improvements and fixes in the documentation.
  • Announcing feature plans to change default PDF and Image generators to Pillow based ones, instead of wkhtmltopdf in version 0.18.

0.17.8

2023-09-21

Note

This release is dedicated to the victims of the war in Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh), a land now lost to its native inhabitants (Armenians). Following a grueling nine-month blockade, Azerbaijan initiated another military onslaught on September 19, 2023. The already weakened and outnumbered forces of Artsakh could no longer mount an effective resistance.

  • Added support for DynamicTemplate to all non-graphic image providers. That means, that you can produce images with text, tables, various headings and other images. Correspondent snippets are implemented for all supported image generators; namely reportlab, WeasyPrint and Pillow.

0.17.7

2023-09-12

  • Added GTTS_MP3_GENERATOR and EDGE_TTS_MP3_GENERATOR to the mp3_file provider import options.

0.17.6

2023-09-09

  • Added add_paragraph, add_picture, add_heading_h1 and other heading helpers to pil_snippets contrib module.

0.17.5

2023-08-22

Note

This release might introduces minor backwards incompatible changes only if you have written own- or customized existing- image providers and used them in combination with WeasyPrint-based image generator. A new property named image_format has been added to all image-based providers and the WeasyPrintImageGenerator is using that instead of formerly used extension property.

  • Added PilImageGenerator (for text-to-image).
  • Added PilPdfGenerator (for text-to-image).

0.17.4

2023-08-18

Note

Release is dedicated to the victims and de-facto hostages of the Blockade of the Republic of Artsakh. Have you ever heard of Armenian genocide? It's happening again. For more than 8 months, Azerbaijan has launched an illegal blockade of the Republic of Artsakh, including critical civilian infrastructure such as gas, electricity and roads connecting Armenia and Artaskh. Shortages of essential goods – including electricity, fuel, and water reserves – are widespread and emergency reserves are being rationed. The blockade has resulted in significant medical and food shortages in Artsakh, leading to increased health complications, as reported by Artsakh Healthcare ministry.

  • Deaths due to cardiovascular diseases doubled in the first seven months of the year, with a particular surge in July-August.
  • Deaths from malignant tumors rose by 15.9% over the same period due to lack of medications and medical aid.
  • New cases of stroke and heart attacks increased by 26% and 9.7% respectively.
  • Newly diagnosed cases of malignant tumors rose by 24.3%.
  • Around 90% of monitored pregnant women developed anemia from poor nutrition and medication shortages.
  • While overall abortion numbers remained stable, medically indicated abortions quadrupled in July due to factors like stress and inadequate nutrition.
  • Reports of fainting surged by 91% in July-August.
  • Emergency calls for high blood pressure saw a 5.6-fold increase in July-August.

The dire health outcomes are attributed to the blockade's impact, including medication shortages, stress, disrupted medical procedures, and restricted healthcare access. The Artsakh Health Ministry warns of further deterioration if the blockade continues, emphasizing the systemic challenges in healthcare delivery due to the blockade.

  • Added AugmentRandomImageFromDirProvider and AugmentImageFromPathProvider providers for basic image augmentation.
  • Added storage to metadata for all providers for easy clean-up of files.
  • Added unlink method to all storages for easy clean-up of files.
  • Added FileRegistry to keep track of all files created and introduce functionality for cleaning up the files.
  • Stop testing against Python 3.7.

0.17.3

2023-08-02

Note

In memory of Sinead O'Connor.

  • Allow to pass image argument (bytes) to the contrib add_picture functions.
  • Documentation improvements.

0.17.2

2023-07-25

  • Added JSON file provider.

0.17.1

2023-07-21

  • Added WeasyPrintImageGenerator image generator class based on WeasyPrint and pdf2image packages.
  • Added BMP, TIFF and GIF file providers (both text-to-image and graphic ones). Note, that above mentioned text-to-image providers are using WeasyPrintImageGenerator as a default image generator class, since ImagekitImageGenerator class isn't capable of supporting the above mentioned file formats.
  • Added more helper functions for DynamicTemplate use for ODT, PDF and DOCX file providers to support h1, h2, h3, h4, h5 and h6 headings.

0.17

2023-07-12

Note

Release is dedicated to the victims and de-facto hostages of the Blockade of the Republic of Artsakh. Have you ever heard of Armenian genocide? It's happening again and the world silently watches.

  • Introducing graphic image providers. Prior to this release, images have been created using text-to-image solutions. Sometimes it's just handy to have a graphic image. Therefore, a number of graphic image file providers have been created (including inner functions support). The following graphic file providers have been added: GraphicIcoFileProvider, GraphicJpegFileProvider, GraphicPdfFileProvider, GraphicPngFileProvider and GraphicWebpFileProvider to support creation of graphic ICO, JPEG, PDF, PNG and WEBP files.
  • The previously mentioned text-to-image rendering has been delegated to image generators. Default generator is still based on the imgkit, but the change makes it possible to use custom generators.

0.16.4

2023-07-01

  • Documentation improvements. Added a dedicated section for creating ODT files.
  • Adding add_paragraph and add_page_break to ODT contrib module.

0.16.3

2023-06-30

  • Documentation improvements. Added a dedicated section for creating PDF files. Added a dedicated section for creating DOCX files.
  • Adding add_paragraph and add_page_break to DOCX contrib module.

0.16.2

2023-06-28

  • Moving some of the snippets from tests to a contrib module to improve usability. The snippets are generic enough to be used in tests and if you don't like the way they work, you could always make a new one. New snippets to insert page breaks and paragraphs into PDF (using both pdfkit and reportlab generators) have been added.

0.16.1

2023-06-23

  • Better error handling in CLI.

0.16

2023-06-21

Note

This release is dedicated to my beloved son - Tigran, who turned 11!

Note

This release introduces minor backwards incompatible changes.

  • Minor improvements in PDF generation. If you have been using DynamicTemplate to generate complex PDFs, you are likely affected by the change. Make sure to at least add an additional argument named generator to the functions passed to the DynamicTemplate class. See the example below:

    Old:

    def add_pb(provider, story, data, counter, **kwargs):

    New:

    def add_pb(provider, generator, story, data, counter, **kwargs):

  • Add code examples of how to generate a PDF with 100 pages with both PdfkitPdfGenerator and ReportlabPdfGenerator PDF generator classes.

  • Add version CLI command.

  • Add generate-completion and version commands to the CLI auto-completion.

0.15.5

2023-06-18

  • Minor fixes and documentation improvements.

0.15.4

2023-06-15

0.15

2023-06-05

  • Added format_func argument to most of the providers. This allows to control which formatter function will be used as a default formatter. Previously it has been faker.provider.Python.pystr_format, which has been changed to faker.provider.Python.parse, since the latter is more convenient (as it does not transform characters like ?, !, # into something else using bothify method). To revert this behaviour, make sure to pass a callable function faker_file.base.pystr_format_func in format_func argument to each correspondent provider or inner function.
  • Added create_inner_random_file_from_dir inner function.
  • Tested against Django 4.2.
  • Stop testing against Django 2.2.

2023-05-11

  • Minor fixes in xml_file provider.

0.14.4

2023-05-11

  • Changed type of data_columns for xml_file provider from Sequence[Tuple[str, str]] to Dict[str, str].
  • In the pdf_file provider, changed default value of pdf_generator_cls from concrete PdfkitPdfGenerator value to its' string representation faker_file.providers.pdf_file.generators.pdfkit_generator.PdfkitPdfGenerator.
  • In the mp3_file provider, changed default value of mp3_generator_cls from concrete GttsMp3Generator value to its' string representation faker_file.providers.mp3_file.generators.gtts_generator.GttsMp3Generator.

0.14.3

2023-05-10

  • Minor fixes in the GenericFileProvider.

0.14.2

  • Add create_inner_generic_file inner function.
  • Add generic_file support to CLI.

0.14.1

2023-05-08

  • Add support for list_create_inner_file-like functions to the EML file provider. If you are using CLI and CLI-completion, make sure to re-generate the completion file.
  • Add GenericFileProvider provider to support generic file types.

0.14

2023-05-07

Note

This release introduces minor backwards incompatible changes.

  • A new argument basename has been added to all providers, inner functions and storage classes. If you have customized things or created your own providers, make sure to make appropriate changes in your code. See the source code for more implementation examples. If you are using CLI and CLI-completion, make sure to re-generate the completion file.
  • A new inner function list_create_inner_file has been added, using which it's possible to create just a list of given files (ignoring count value) using given arguments. The amount of files is determined by the func_list (each pair (Callable, kwargs) corresponds to a single file. Both ZipFileProvider and TarFileProvider have been altered to reflect these changes.
  • Added to support for XML files through XmlFileProvider.

0.13

2023-05-05

Note

This release introduces minor backwards incompatible changes.

  • Display full path to the created file in the CLI.
  • Added DynamicTemplate support for PDF file. The generate method of the BasePdfGenerator and classes derived from it, got two new arguments: data (Dict[str, Any]), and provider (Union[Faker, Generator, Provider]). If you have implemented custom generators for PDF (pdf_file provider), make sure to reflect mentioned changes in your code.

0.12.6

2023-05-02

  • Added DynamicTemplate support for DOCX and ODT files.

0.12.5

2023-04-24

0.12

2023-02-24

Note, that this release introduces breaking changes!

  • Make it easy to use a different PDF library with PdfFileProvider by adding pdf_generator_cls and pdf_generator_kwargs optional arguments to the pdf_file method. Added ReportlabPdfGenerator class based on the famous reportlab library. Default is still PdfkitPdfGenerator. Since encoding was something specific for pdfkit library, it was moved from pdf_file method to PdfkitPdfGenerator, to which it can be passed in pdf_generator_kwargs. If you have passed the encoding argument explicitly, make sure to make correspondent changes. Note, that using the new ReportlabPdfGenerator class could speed-up PDF generation by about 40 times.

0.11.5

2023-02-20
