简介
faker模块是一个很有特色的模块，所以其在github上得到的star也较多。其可以用来生成一些伪数据，比如用来做测试用途等等。其github项目地址在 这里 。
该项目支持pip安装:
pip install Faker
其使用还是很简单的，大概如下所示:
from faker import Factory
faker = Factory.create()
for i in range(50):
print(faker.name())
然后中文名字例子如下，就是在Factory的create方法那里指定语言locale（默认是"en_EN"）:
from faker import Factory
faker = Factory.create('zh_CN')
for i in range(100):
print(faker.name())
