Generating dummy country data with mimesis only returns 'United States'

[rgoubet]

Bug report

What's wrong

Address.country appears to return only United States:

from mimesis import Address

g = Address()
for i in range(0,11):
    print(g.country())

This returns 10 times United States. This is unlike:

g = Address()
for i in range(0,6):
    print(g.city())

Which returns 5 different city names.

How is that should be

I should get 5 different country names (in English).

You have to pass allow_random=True, like this:

address.country(allow_random=True)

See: https://mimesis.name/en/master/api.html#mimesis.Address.country

I'm going to change this behavior in upcoming release, to make country() return random country each time.

[rgoubet]

Great, thank you!

[lk-geimfari]

I've fixed this behavior.

There are two methods now:

country() always returns random country
default_country() always returns country associated with current locale i.e United States for en, Россия for ru

I will release 8.0.0 later this month.

I've fixed this one in 8.0.0 which is already available on PyPi, btw.

[rgoubet]

Yes, it was even available in Conda Forge on the same day. Tested and loving it. Thanks for your blazing-fast resolution!
