Adding industry-specific codes to a new "Industry" class. #377

Closed dynamicwebpaige closed 5 years ago

dynamicwebpaige commented 6 years ago

Many industrial fields (the petroleum industry, electrical engineering, chemical engineering, etc.) have industry specific codes and formatting that would be useful to generate synthetically.

Examples:

API well numbers for exploratory wells - water, energy
Stock-Keeping Units (SKUs) and Price Look-up Codes (PLCs)
Global Trade Item Numbers
etc.

Is there interest to include these variations in an "Industry" class? Am open to changing the name! :)

Thanks, pb

@dynamicwebpaige Sounds damn fine! I like name Industry. It would be awesome to add such a data-provider. Do you want to add it by yourself or this is a proposal for contributors?

dynamicwebpaige commented 6 years ago

You bet! :) Will go ahead and self-assign the issue.

Most of the data can be added to built-in providers, so there is no need in another one provider.
