Usage

faker: Wrapper for the Faker Python library

faker is a PostgreSQL extension that wraps Python’s Faker library, providing functions to generate realistic fake data directly in SQL queries. It requires plpython3u.

CREATE EXTENSION faker;

Generate Fake Data

SELECT faker.name();           -- 'John Smith'
SELECT faker.first_name();     -- 'Jane'
SELECT faker.last_name();      -- 'Doe'
SELECT faker.email();          -- 'jane.doe@example.com'
SELECT faker.address();        -- '123 Main St, Anytown, US 12345'
SELECT faker.company();        -- 'Smith LLC'
SELECT faker.phone_number();   -- '(555) 123-4567'
SELECT faker.text();           -- random paragraph of text
SELECT faker.city();           -- 'Portland'
SELECT faker.country();        -- 'United States'

Note: faker.date() and faker.time() are not available because date and time are reserved PostgreSQL keywords. Use faker.date_between() or faker.date_this_century() instead.

Populate Tables with Fake Data

INSERT INTO users (name, email, address, created_at)
SELECT
  faker.name(),
  faker.email(),
  faker.address(),
  faker.date_this_century()::timestamp
FROM generate_series(1, 1000);

Localized Fake Data

Locale is set per session, not per function call:

SELECT faker.faker('de_DE');   -- set locale for this session
SELECT faker.name();           -- returns a German name
SELECT faker.address();        -- returns a German address

Unique Values

Use the unique_ prefix to guarantee unique values within a session:

SELECT faker.unique_name();
SELECT faker.unique_email();

Discover All Functions

SELECT faker._functions();     -- list all 500+ available functions

All faker functions return text. Cast explicitly for other types.
