Fake Data Generator for Prisma & TypeORM Seeding

Q: How do I use BugiaData with Prisma seed scripts?

Keep your schema definition in source control and call POST /api/generate/schema in your Prisma seed step. The API returns parent and child tables in dependency order so inserts remain foreign-key safe.

Replace brittle fixture scripts with one relational schema request. BugiaData generates linked tables ready for Prisma and TypeORM pipelines in local development and CI.

Common ORM Seeding Pain

Manual table ordering across dependencies
Intermittent foreign key failures in CI
Large, hard-to-maintain custom seeder scripts

BugiaData Approach

Define schema once in JSON
Generate parent/child tables in one request
Consume payloads directly in Prisma or TypeORM seed jobs

Schema Example

{
  "count": 25,
  "schema": {
    "users": {"columns": {"id": {"type": "uuid"}, "email": {"type": "email"}}},
    "projects": {"columns": {"id": {"type": "uuid"}, "owner_id": {"type": "foreign_key", "reference": "users.id"}}}
  }
}

Frequently Asked Questions

Keep your schema definition in source control and call POST /api/generate/schema in your Prisma seed step. The API returns parent and child tables in dependency order so inserts remain foreign-key safe.

Yes. Generate relational tables first, then map response payloads into TypeORM entities for deterministic integration tests and fixture refreshes.

Yes. BugiaData is API-first and scriptable, so teams can generate linked fixture data during build or test jobs without maintaining large custom seeding scripts.
