DatabaseMask
============

[](#databasemask)

Mask data from Production using Faker to use safely elsewhere.

- [DatabaseMask on Packagist](https://packagist.org/packages/brendantwhite/databasemask)
- [DatabaseMask on GitHub](https://github.com/BrendanTWhite/DatabaseMask)

Use Case
--------

[](#use-case)

Ever wanted to use a copy of your Laravel project's Production database in your test environments? But you can't, because it's a security risk?

Now, you can get a copy of the Production database and mask just the values that need masking - names, phone numbers, email addresses etc - while keeping your data otherwise intact.

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

[](#installation)

From the command line run:

`composer require brendantwhite/databasemask`

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

First, ensure you have a [Model Factory](https://laravel.com/docs/eloquent-factories) defined for each Eloquent model class that you want to mask.

Then, add a `$masked` property to your Eloquent model classes, specifying which attributes on your model should be masked.
