Download

Due to popular demand, here's the entire program free for download under the GNU open source license. As mentioned on the demo page, my server resources are fairly limited, so if you plan on generating large volumes of data, I'd rather you download it and install it locally. Enjoy! :-)

Requirements

  • MySQL 4+
  • PHP 4+
  • Any modern browser

Installation

Installation is easy. Just follow these 5 steps:

  1. Download the zipfile here and unzip the contents locally on your computer.
  2. In the zipfile, you'll see a file named install.sql. This contains all the SQL to create the MySQL tables and raw data used by the Data Generator (names, cities, provinces, states, countries, etc). You will need to execute these statements on your database through any database access tool, such as phpMyAdmin.
  3. Edit the library.php file. At the top, you'll see a section where you need to enter your MySQL database settings. Note: if you choose to change the database prefix, make sure you rename the tables after running the SQL in #2!
  4. Upload all files to your webserver.
  5. Load the sucker up in your web browser.
