node-red-contrib-createrandom

Generate a random value of a certain type using customizable generators.

Quick Start

After installation, the node should be listed under the [common] category.

1. Drag a [random] node onto the palette and open it.
2. Select a generator type.
3. Configure options if available. Alternatively, select [msg.xxx] to provide the value in an incoming message.
4. Use a [inject] node or other method to trigger the value creation.

The node output will always contain two values:

Generator: The name of the generator used. Payload: The randomly created value.

Check out the contextual help for the full list of generators and additional info.

Updates

1.2.0 - Fixed error handling. Note: User generator now outputs a single user object instead of an array containing one single object. 1.1.1 - Fixed NPM packaging. 1.1.0 - Add random user generator. Convert all ops to promises.
