I have a Post Model with these fields :
post_id
post_title
post_content
post_content_full
author
Now I want to use laravel sedders and model factories to create fake fa_IR
localized data and insert to posts
table.
For that I wrote this in database/factories/ModelFactory.php
:
$factory->define(AppPost::class, function (FakerGenerator $faker) {
return [
'post_title' => $faker->sentence,
'post_content' => $faker->paragraph,
'post_content_full' => $faker->paragraph(3),
'author' => $faker->name
];
});
Then I created a PostsTableSeeder
class like this :
use IlluminateDatabaseSeeder;
class PostsTableSeeder extends Seeder
{
/**
* Run the database seeds.
*
* @return void
*/
public function run ()
{
factory(AppPost::class, 5)->create();
}
}
And in AppServiceProvider.php
added below codes to register
function :
$this->app->singleton(FakerGenerator::class, function () {
return FakerFactory::create('fa_IR');
});
But After running the seed , laravel uses default locale (en_US
) and ignores fa_IR
.
I do not know what else to do.
Update:
Even I changed in DEFAULT_LOCALE
const vendor/fzaninotto/faker/src/Faker/Factory.php
to fa_IR
Nothing changed.

Not all faker methods are supported in every language, from what a quick lookup of the documentation says, the Company
and Address
provider are supported in the fa_IR
localization
