Use the PHP Faker library to generate more meaningful sample content.

Devel Generate is great for creating a lot of sample content in a hurry, but sometimes you want samples that are more meaningful, or closer to the content you expect users to generate. This is where Faker comes in.

Faker is a PHP library that generates fake data for you

Faker (the library) can generate real looking names, addresses, emails, domains and more. Faker (the module) combines the library with quick content creation abilities provided by Devel Generate, to give you the power to easily generate real looking sample content.

Installation w/ Drush make

The module includes a drush make file that will automatically download the necessary library when installing via drush make. Just add faker to your project's drush make file.

Manual installation

• Download and unpack Faker from https://github.com/fzaninotto/Faker/archive/v1.1.0.tar.gz, into sites/all/libraries/faker.
• Download and enable the Faker module as usual.

Usage

• Implement hook_faker_node_generate() from your module/feature. See faker.api.inc in the source for more info about the available hooks.

This extends the Twitter module for Drupal by adding a mechanism that deletes old tweets from the Drupal database before the Twitter module refreshes a user timeline. This can be useful as a way of making sure that a user's deleted tweets don't continue to appear on Twitter blocks on the Drupal site.

WARNING: Since this module deletes all old tweets prior to refreshing the user timeline, it can wipe out a lot of old tweets when it runs. This happens to be fine for my use case, but if it isn't what you want to happen on your website, please don't install this module! Essentially it means that instead of the Twitter module building a growing archive of tweets from selected Twitter accounts, the Twitter module merely serves as a caching mechanism for storing recent tweets so that Twitter doesn't have to be queried every time your website displays a block of tweets. For my particular use case, this is exactly what I want. If users who visit my website want to see older tweets, they can simply go to Twitter and find them there. However, that may not be your use case, so please use this module carefully and understand what it does before you use it.

Also, please note that this module requires the following patch to the Twitter module, or else it won't do anything:
