mimesis: Seed does not work for some providers
Description:
Seems like @duckyou have found a bug in our code and seed
is really does not work sometime and we should fix it.
Reason:
It’s happening because we use custom_code
which use another random
object.
Decision:
We should move utils which use random
to helpers.Random

@lk-geimfari im in! ^^
Seems like
builtins
providers also does not support of seed. We should fix it!@duckyou We need to take a decision that will allow us to make the minimum number of changes.
@duckyou Let’s will weigh the pros and cons of all solutions.
@lk-geimfari I see here several solutions:
@duckyou I’ll wait for your PR. Keep in mind that we have
builtins
data providers and that sometimes we need an item of the enum, but not a value (personla.py -> surname
,payment.py -> credit_card_number
).@duckyou I have invited you to @mimesis-lab. Accept the invitation if you’re interested. Thanks!
Fixed. Now we should think about how should we test providers with seed.
@duckyou Skip this for now. I’ll think about it later. Our priority for a right now is
custom_code
.@lk-geimfari Hmm… You goddamn right! That’s may be simplest solution ☺️
I do this 😉
@duckyou You know, it’s better to move it to
helpers.Random
. There’s just everything related to random selection.
