# Release checklist
## Before v0.1.0
The record API lands first, so the data update can use it.
### Record API
- Rename the record entry points after the string ones: `Record(path)` becomes
`FakeRecord(path)`, and `FakeRecord(inline)` becomes `FakeRecordTemplate(inline)`.
- Typed columns — a column declares its type, so `json` writes `42` rather than
`"42"` and `sql` an unquoted literal: string, integer, number, boolean, and a
way to write null. A template that can render a value its type rejects is a
load error. The option key is reserved from then on, so a common column name
like `type` is a poor pick.
- Struct-filling — fill a Go struct from `fake:"…"` tags holding a path or an
inline template, for parity with gofakeit and go-faker. The field's Go type is
the column type, through the same conversion and load checks as typed columns,
and a nested struct is its own draw group. Revise the Decision "A record is a
template seen as columns, not a second schema format" with that reason.
- Draw groups — references into one category share one draw per render (one
record, or one `Fake`) in both views; each `repeat` iteration draws anew, and a
bare reference draws each time. An option naming a draw group splits a render
into several entities. Replaces the Decision "A record shares one reference draw
per category". Each expectation becomes a test:
- `first`, `last` and `email` reading `person` → one person
- `from_first`/`from_last` grouped `from`, `to_first`/`to_last` grouped `to` → two people
- `host`, plus `guests` repeated 3 times → four people
- `code` and `symbol` sibling fields reading `currency`, as `{code} {symbol}` → a matching pair
- `{a} & {b}`, each reading `person` → one person, or two when `a` and `b` name different groups
- two bare `{/sv_SE.word}` → two words
### Data
- Major data update. Shipped categories render as records with their building
blocks as columns (`sv_SE.person` → `femalefirst`, `malefirst`; `misc.uuid` →
`variant`), and `sv_SE.address` draws its postal code apart from its locality.
It also settles what a version promises about shipped data: its paths, its
record columns, and whether a seed renders the same output across versions.
- `email.local` and `username` share their handle lists, while their name
variants differ on purpose. Share the lists only if that is a clean win.
### Release
- Versioning — semver tags, starting at `v0.1.0`; `v1.0.0` once the grammar
settles. From v2 the module path carries `/vN` (`go.mod`, imports, the README's
install lines), so fences ship batched into as few majors as possible. Reword
the Decision "After the first tag, a new fence is a major version" to match:
before `v1.0.0` a fence ships in a minor.
- Changelog — `CHANGELOG.md`, started with `v0.1.0`; the fence Decision's
"changelog" links there.
- CLI without Go — investigate prebuilt binaries: GoReleaser publishing to Gitea
releases, a container image, Homebrew and Scoop.
- Homepage — a simple page for fejkdata with an in-browser generator: the library
compiled to WebAssembly, so visitors generate as much data as they like in their
own browser.
