By using this library it is possible to skip writing a lot of boilerplate code to navigate through your data structures again and again. The library is designed to be flexible and extensible, so that it can be used in a wide range of use cases. It also ships with support of `fakerphp/faker` as a provider for randomized fake data. ### Getting started [](#getting-started) ``` composer require php-anonymizer/anonymizer ``` 01 Basic usage -------------- [](#01-basic-usage) ### Creating an Anonymizer instance [](#creating-an-anonymizer-instance) If you want to start with the most basic usage of modifying data in an array structure, all you have to do is to create an instance of the `Anonymizer` class, register a rule set by using `registerRuleSet` and call the `run` method with the data you want to modify. ``` // examples/01_basic_usage.php
