Identity

The following generator functions are available in the Identity provider:

Impostor.prefix — Function

prefix(n::Integer = 1; kws...)
prefix(options::Vector{String}, n::Integer; kws...)
prefix(mask::Vector{<:AbstractString}; kws...)

Generate n name prefixes, e.g. "Mr." and "Ms.", from a given locale.

Parameters

n::Integer = 1: number of prefixes to generate.
options::Vector{<:AbstractString}: vector with options restricting the possible values generated.
mask::Vector{<:AbstractString}: mask vector with element-wise option restrictions.

Options

The valid options values for options and mask are:

"M" for "male"
"F" for "female"

Kwargs

locale::Vector{String}: locale(s) from which entries are sampled. If no locale is provided, the current session locale is used.

Example

julia> prefix(["F", "M", "F"])
3-element Vector{String}:
"Ms."
"Mr."
"Ms."
