Add Seeds Script for Development Enviroment

[zacck-zz]

Expected Behavior

I think @zubairshokh you can help better with outlining this issue, but as per our conversation I would assume you are speaking about seeding the database so that the dev environement has dummy data for developers

Actual Behavior

We currently don't see the database dev environment

Acceptance Criteria

We should be able to seed the database as per environment and demand

Steps to Reproduce the Problem

1. If you build the project in the dev environment it does not have any data

Specifications

• Version: 0.0.3-rcwishlist

yea, As of now, i do not see data to be supplied within the database, even for development.
So, i would recommend to use data Factory that puts the data in the tables, so that the working of the app gets a little flow.

@zubairshokh it would be awesome if we had a script that we could execute as a mix task, say something like mix seed development then the dev environment would be filled with some test data.
We are already using ex_machina to seed the database with test data we can potentially use ex_machina to do the development seed?

Here are the factories we use in the test env, you can likely repurpose them @zubairshokh

[zubairshokh]

yea, i saw them. they are for testing purpose. what i am saying is that use the same Exmachina, and Faker library to create the fake data for the tables. @zacck

[zacck-zz]

I haven't used the faker library before but I am keen to see

[zubairshokh]

i will try to work on it this weekend.

Hmm so I can see where this would be very helpful in development, At the moment I am working on some logic updates for the association of Wishlist Items to Log Sections and it sure would be nice to have some seeded data to play with

[zacck-zz]

So I went through the application and checked what kind of seed data it would need, of course, this would have to be updated as the application is developed further but at the moment here is the data I think we need to load for dev testing

• Insert 2 Account.User records
• Insert 2 respective MoneyLog.Owner records and associate them with the above users
• For each of these owners we should insert 2 MoneyLog.Budget records
• For each of these budgets we should insert 2 Planning.LogSection records
• For each of these budgets we should insert 5 WishList.Item records
• Associate 2 items in each budget to logsectons

@zubairshokh I think this should work for now let me know what you think
