Property File: Data Generator Functions
Values can be generated for Properties on Relations and Nodes
in the following format: |
==== Special Properties | A set of predifined property names and their values are generated |
~FromToDateTime=[FromDatefrom],[FromDateTo],[ToDateFrom],[ToDateTo] | This will generate a from and a to datetime property (timestamp) example: ~FromToDateTime=1960-01-30,1980-12-31,1981-01-01,2000-01-01 |
~FromToDate=[FromDatefrom],[FromDateTo],[ToDateFrom],[ToDateTo] | This will generate a from and a to date property (number value generated with date YYYYMMDD)
example: ~FromToDateTime=1960-01-30,1980-12-31,1981-01-01,2000-01-01 |
~DateAndTime=[datefrom],[dateTo] | This will generate a Date between the dateFrom and dateTo, and will create two properties "date" in format yyyy-MM-dd and "time" width a timestamp value
example: ~DateAndTime=1981-01-01,2000-01-01 |
~DateAndTimeNowR=[minutes range] | This will create two properties "date" in format yyyy-MM-dd and "time" width a timestamp value, based on a random date value between now - [minutes range] and now.
example: ~DateAndTime=1981-01-01,2000-01-01 |
