The provider methods you listed are exclusive to the en_US
address provider. The pl_PL
provider does not support those methods, so it is actually behaving as expected.
What is wrong, however, is the current documentation that gives that impression as shown in this page. Because of how the docs are currently generated, the "standard providers" page use en_US
provider classes instead of the "core" provider classes, and that is why those methods are included even if they should not be.
While I did not mention this specific issue in #1083, this is something I already addressed in my PR #1128 as part of revamping the provider docs. It is still a WIP, but standard provider docs can be found here, and localized pl_PL
provider docs can be found here. The way to view this is that the localized provider categories, e.g. address, automotive, etc, "overrides" the standard provider categories.
For example, in pl_PL
, the address provider has been localized, so methods in that localized address provider will be available instead of the standard address provider methods. The color provider, however, has not been localized, so the standard color provider methods will be available.
This issue is stale because it has been open for 30 days with no activity.
This issue was closed because it has been inactive for 14 days since being marked as stale.
This actually gave me an idea about how to solve a problem that I have been tackling for hours. It seems some methods are locale specific. Like Faker("en_IN").aadhar_id(). For anyone who struggled like me Just add respective locales to Faker() instance and you will be good to go.
a number of providers causes this problem: zipcode postalcode zipcode_plus4 military_ship
Steps to reproduce
Expected behavior
