The feature adds the following options: - introspector_class: the class to use to map the model fields to factory attributes - default_auto_fields: whether to generate the factory fields automatically or not. - include_auto_fields: which fields should be included in the autogeneration. - exclude_auto_fields: which fields the end user wants to generate by himself.
This class aims to: - define how the field's type of a model is mapped to a declaration factory - how to get the field names, to generate declaration automatically, of a model class - how to build the factory declaration
It uses the introspector class linked in the meta option in order to generate the right declarations related to the model fields.
Faker is used to match the right formatter related to the field name.

Hi there and thanks for this great library! I'd like to ask about this PR, is this a WIP? Can I offer some assistance/contribution? This definitely could be of use since I have models with dozens of basic fields that i'd like to not define them on every factory. |

The idea is to have a generic model that allows to auto generate factory's fields based on the object declaration.
A complete description of the feature is coming with this PR in the following days.
