This little project is called Edie after Edie Sedgwick who was one of the artists in Andy Warhols Factory.
|
|
The film about her life is called Factory Girl (2006).
|
|
This project was inspired by the FactoryGirl project that was later renamed FactoryBot.

|
|
|
|
*Usage:*
|
|
for a java bean like:
|
|
```java
|
|
class Person{
|
|
String name;
|
|
int age;
|
|
|
|
//rest omitted for brevity
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
* Create a definition (template for creating instances) like so:
|
|
```
|
|
Factory.define(Person.class, () -> new Person("John", 48));
|
|
```
|
|
* Then create instances like so:
|
|
```
|
|
Person person = Factory.build(Person.class)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* But the real _power_ of this lies in
|
|
```
|
|
Person person = Factory.build(Person.class, p -> p.setAge(25));
|
|
```
|
|
This will result in an object
|
|
```
|
|
{name: "John", age: 25}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Meaning the template can be customized later on
|

|

|
