Add faker.helpers.objectEntry

[ST-DDT]

So we could use ObjectKeys to get a random key and then get the values for it.
Or alternatively we introduce objectEntry that returns [key, value] directly.

What do you think?

You need Git, an IDE such as VS Code, Node and pnpm.
Please search for yourself on how to download and install them.
If you are done with that you have to clone this repository and open it with your IDE.

@ST-DDT , I got that. I'm trying to build the project by following the steps in CONTRIBUTION.md . (pnpm install , and pnpm run build) . But itss not helping . Project doesn't start or run . Please guide me on this.

Please paste the full output of what you see when you type pnpm install and pnpm run build.

@matthewmayer , Nothing runs or start when i run these commands. FYI : I'm using windows.

[ST-DDT]

Nothing is supposed to run as this is a library.
Is there anything that lead you to this assumption that we can improve?

You just have to add the method implementation and tests for this feature.
We also have a playground repository that you can use to test the code yourself via pnpm dependency overwrite linking to your local fork.

It seems to be working fine.

You would then need to make changes to the code for example to add the new objectEntry method

When you have finished run pnpm run build again. Assuming no errors then run node to enter the node CLI where you can test everything works as you expect.
