The discussion revolves around finding a public dataset of Discourse site data for plugin testing. saiqulhaq is looking for a dataset similar to those available for WordPress. pfaffman recalls that sam may have shared a sample data set in the past, which jomaxro found in a related topic. However, sam mentions that the project to create a sanitized export, started by elijah, was never finished. As an alternative, Falco suggests using the user_simulator.rb file, which they modified for their own needs, and saiqulhaq plans to follow this approach.
Hi all
actually it’s been on my head few times
I am wondering is there any public dataset of Discourse site that can be used?
similar like FakerPress – WordPress plugin | WordPress.org or WP Dummy Post Generator – WordPress plugin | WordPress.org on wordpress
so it’s like using real dataset when developing a plugin
A long while ago, I think @sam had given someone such a sample data set that they were going to anonymize, but I can’t figure out how to search for it.
Ha! I had the same problem finding the topic. It’s How Sam's Windows development environment is configured - #7 by sam. We’ll need to wait for Sam to confirm what happened…
When I was developing the print function, I changed this file discourse/script/user_simulator.rb at main · discourse/discourse · GitHub for my needs.
I recall @elijah started working on the sanitized export but do not think this ever got finished.
ok thanks
I think I can follow what @Falco does
