FAQPage Schema
How do I populate a development database with realistic test data?

Use SQLAlchemy-based seed scripts to populate your database with mock data for users, team members, and resources. Run `make seed` or `python -m app.db.seed` to generate realistic test records that enable repeatable demos and testing without manual data entry.

Can I run database seeding multiple times without duplicating data?

Yes, idempotent seed scripts check for existing records before inserting new ones, making them safe to run repeatedly. This allows you to reset your development database to a known state without conflicts or duplicate entries.

How do I seed a database with hashed passwords and commit changes?

The Skill integrates password hashing and commit handling into SQLAlchemy ORM seed routines, automatically generating secure user records with hashed credentials and persisting changes to your database in a single operation.

Does database seeding work across different environments like staging and development?

Yes, environment-aware seeding adapts behavior based on dev or staging contexts, allowing you to generate appropriate demo or test data for each environment without manual configuration changes.

What data types can I seed with SQLAlchemy seed scripts?

Seed scripts generate users, team members, updates, tools, resources, and research records using SQLAlchemy ORM, supporting complex object relationships and realistic mock data for comprehensive testing across your application schema.
