Add feature to generate random table data by rightclick

[papyr]

Hello this is very nice, any chance we could adopt this script/ C# class to populate any MsSQL table with Random Data.

// for e.g it would be helpful to do something like this.
myPocoEntityTable.Filll(50).SkipFkeys(true);

declare @select varchar(max), @insert varchar(max), @column varchar(100),
    @type varchar(100), @identity bit, @db nvarchar(100)

set @db = N'Orders'
set @select = 'select '
set @insert = 'insert into ' + @db + ' ('


declare crD cursor fast_forward for
select column_name, data_type, 
COLUMNPROPERTY(
    OBJECT_ID(
       TABLE_SCHEMA + '.' + TABLE_NAME), 
    COLUMN_NAME, 'IsIdentity') AS COLUMN_ID
from Northwind.INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
where table_name = @db


open crD
fetch crD into @column, @type, @identity

while @@fetch_status = 0
begin
if @identity = 0 or @identity is null
begin
    set @insert = @insert + @column + ', ' 
    set @select = @select  + 
        case @type
            when 'int' then '1'
            when 'varchar' then '''test'''
            when 'nvarchar' then '''test'''
            when 'smalldatetime' then 'getdate()'
            when 'bit' then '0'
            else 'NULL'
        end + ', ' 
end
fetch crD into @column, @type, @identity
end 

set @select = left(@select, len(@select) - 1)
set @insert = left(@insert, len(@insert) - 1) + ')'
exec(@insert + @select)

close crD
deallocate crD

This is out of scope for this project. SSMS already has a feature which should help you. Have a look at how to add and use code snippets. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/ssms/scripting/transact-sql-code-snippets
