README

Livewire 4. Fill empty component state with Faker while you build — after mount, only on your machine, never overwriting values you already set.

Livewire Fakeable is a focused Laravel package with a simple idea: declare fake data next to your Livewire properties, and let a component hook apply it when it is safe. No seeding scripts scattered across mount() methods, and no guessing whether you are looking at real or dummy data.

Installation

composer require tomeasterbrook/livewire-fakeable

The service provider is discovered automatically. Publish the config if you want to change locale, hosts, or the on-page indicator:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="livewire-fakeable-config"

Quick start

Annotate public properties with #[Fakeable] and a Faker formatter name. Empty properties are filled after mount — only in local dev, never overwriting values you already set.

use Livewire\Component;
use TomEasterbrook\LivewireFakeable\Attributes\Fakeable;

class EditProfilePage extends Component
{
    #[Fakeable('name')]
    public string $name = '';

    #[Fakeable('safeEmail')]
    public string $email = '';

    #[Fakeable('paragraph')]
    public string $bio = '';
}

Use #[Fakeable] without a formatter to infer one automatically from the property name, type, or enum.

See the full documentation for array shapes, state classes, Form objects, seeds, locale, and more.

Safety

Faking only runs when all of these are true — otherwise the package does nothing:

• enabled is true in config
• App environment is local
• Request host matches an allowed_hosts glob (e.g. *.test)
• Faker\Generator is available
