# Unicode Babel

Is a easy to use python package for generating random unicode characters.

It's ideal for use in your tests or tools, Allowing you to quickly identify bugs and data processing issues.

* Easy to use iterator for repeated tests
* Unicode Planes 0, 1 and 2
* Python 3.6+
* Free  to use and open source

## Getting started:

To install:
```bash
pip install unicode-babel
```

This code:
```python
from unicode_babel import tools, filters

genny = tools.CodePointGenerator()

for point in genny.random_codepoints(10, filters.filter_out_if_no_name)
    print(point)

```
Will output 10 random unicode code-points from the Basic Multilingual Plane, filtered to ensure only valid named code-points are returned.:
```
ᓆ
ᗡ
ꋛ
販
ۅ
䶣
楨
蟷
䔉
ݥ
```

Or you can get individual codepoints and them use them with other tools, for example Selenium Webdriver:

```python
from unicode_babel import tools, filters
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys

browser = webdriver.Chrome()
browser.get("https://www.google.com")

data_genny = tools.CodePointGenerator()
unusual_char = data_genny.get_random_codepoint(filters.filter_out_if_no_name)

search_box = browser.find_element_by_name("q")
search_box.send_keys(unusual_char + Keys.RETURN)

```
Assuming you have Chromedriver in your path, that should open Google and search for a random character.
