StreamData: generating valid tri-tuple date
Hello.
I would like to generate a valid tri-tuple date with StreamData. After some digging and experimentation I arrived at this working code:
defmodule SomeFactory do
def valid_date?({_y, _m, _d} = date_tuple) do
case Date.from_erl(date_tuple) do
{:ok, _date} -> true
_ -> false
end
end
def date_maybe_invalid_tuple() do
gen all y <- integer(0..99),
m <- integer(1..12),
d <- integer(1..31) do
{y, m, d}
end
end
def date_valid_tuple() do
StreamData.filter(date_maybe_invalid_tuple(), &valid_date?/1)
end
end
Running this gave me a reasonable certainty that the filter indeed stops invalid dates like 2018-02-30 (it returns the empty list as I expected):
Enum.take(SomeFactory.date_valid_tuple(), 1_000_000) |> Enum.reject(&SomeFactory.valid_date?/1)
So, am I doing this right? And is there a way to do the above with only one function?

Looks perfectly legit.
The only thing is you are kinda abusing case; use Kernel.match?/2 instead:
def valid_date?({_y, _m, _d} = date_tuple) do
match?({:ok, _date}, Date.from_erl(date_tuple))
end
Also, you might put this guard directly into the generator as shown here:
gen all y <- integer(0..99),
m <- integer(1..12),
d <- integer(1..31),
match?({:ok, _date}, Date.from_erl({y, m, d})) do
2

I was misspelling the checks to follow the left <- right idiom for some reason.
Good catch on match?, totally forgot about it in this case.
Thanks!
