Replace faker with a maintained version of the package

[ST-DDT]

I noticed, that you are using the old version of faker, that is no longer maintained.

deepkit-framework/packages/framework/package.json

Line 55 in 81a1ab1

"faker": "5.4.0",

deepkit-framework/packages/framework/package.json

Line 87 in 81a1ab1

"@types/faker": "^5.1.6",

deepkit-framework/packages/create-app/files/package.json

Line 42 in 81a1ab1

"faker": "^5.5.3",

You might want to switch to the maintained package @faker-js/faker.

• https://www.npmjs.com/package/@faker-js/faker
• https://v6.fakerjs.dev/migration-guide-v5/

It has all the versions from the old package, but received numerous updates in the meantime (including built-in types).

Disclaimer: I'm a maintainer of @faker-js/faker.

@ST-DDT is the API the same?

[ST-DDT]

In all versions prior to v6 yes.

faker@v<6 === @faker-js/faker@v<6

v6 should have almost no API breaking changes, but a lot of stuff has been moved around internally.

[email protected] == @faker-js/faker@v6 (+fixes +new methods +updated locale data)

Newer versions have a few breaking changes.
