# RandomStrings

This gem helps you generate random string of various "types" - a random email, a random date, a random Twitter handle, etc. Or just a random string.

It's a great gem to use when creating seeds for database applications - like in a Rails seeds.rb file, for example. (hint, hint.)

## Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

    gem 'random_strings'

And then execute:

    $ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

    $ gem install random_strings

## Usage

Initialize like this:
   @my_gen = RandomStrings::Generator.new do |config|
     config.default_string_length=7
     config.default_number_length=6
     config.tld_list=['.net', '.my', '.ly']
   end

Here are a few functions you can use:

   @generator=RandomStrings::Generator.new
   a_zip=@generator.random_zip # Will look like, 40072
   an_email=@generator.random_email # Will look, uuyhWAAJne@uuqVGjEaka.net

These are composed from the following basic functions:

   RandomStrings::Generator#random_digits
   RandomStrings::Generator#random_string
