Generates titles and content for blog articles using faker

Why?
----

[](#why)

If you're developing something which has some kind of blog or news system this will generate titles for them it will also generate content in HTML and Markdown based on some templates, the titles use real words, and the content uses Fakers Lorem ipsum generators.

How?
----

[](#how)

We define formats which are then used to generate titles, the titles use real words, so we have a collection of adjectives, verbs, nouns and adverbs to generate "close enough" article titles, some of them happy to be quite funny, I did not stop laughing whilst making this...

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Run the following:

```
composer require andrefigueira/blog-article-faker

```

Or add the following to your composer file:

```
{
  "require": {
    "andrefigueira/blog-article-faker": "dev-master"
  }
}

```

And then run:

```
composer install

```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

You can now use this FakerProvider with Faker to produce your fake article titles and content:

```
$faker = Faker\Factory::create();

$faker->addProvider(new BlogArticleFaker\FakerProvider($faker));

echo $faker->articleTitle;
echo $faker->articleContent
echo $faker->articleContentMarkdown

```
