Symbol Ipsum is a text generator that handles utf-8 characters, including accented and special character. I've included two word lists: rendered accented characters and symbols as well as entity encoded characters.
var symbolIpsum = require('symbolIpsum');
var text = symbolIpsum.words(6,'symbols'); // atkvæði, d’état, ¿cómo?, benåde, fußgängerübergänge, Σ
var sentence = symbolIpsum.sentences(7,14,2,'entities'); // outputs two sentences between seven to 14 words each with the entity encoding.
var paragraph = symbolIpsum.paragraphs(7,14,5,3,'symbols'); // outputs three paragraphs with five sentences between seven to 14 words each with rendered symbols.
There's some great text generator packages out there but I've found that they only provide ASCII alphanumeric values. For testing purposes this isn't ideal and there's a need for more comprehensive data, my goal with this module is to provide dummy data with accented character and other special characters specific to unicode.
npm install symbol-ipsum
npm test
