Generator

A generator is just a data resource and therefore you can use it in every data operation.

Example

Printing the generator will print the generated data

The head command will print the generated data.

tabul data head --limit 30 sequence--generator.yml@howto
The first 30 rows of the data resource (sequence@memgen):
