In Laravel, how to use ModelFactory to create Chinese fake data?
I did this for reference.

define(AppUser::class, function (FakerGenerator $faker) {
static $password;
$tw_faker = TwFacker::create('zh_TW');
return [
'name' => $tw_faker->name,
'address' => $tw_faker->address,
'city' => preg_replace('#(.{3})(.*)#um', '$1', $tw_faker->city),
'email' => $faker->unique()->safeEmail,
'password' => $password ?: $password = bcrypt('secret'),
'remember_token' => str_random(10),
];
});

Customize a TwFacker alias, we can use him.
Here, $tw_faker->name is used to replace the original $faker->name provided by $faker->name , so the Chinese name can be stored.

We can also adjust relevant localized files in vendor/fzaninotto/faker/src/Faker/Provider/zh_TW in Laravel's special security directory.

For example, the text of Text.php can generate fake data Chinese that is more in line with our needs..

About the operation of --env in Laravel's artisan

This article uses Laravel 9.40.1 for operation. I believe many people know the usage of --env, but I still provide some information for Laravel beginners. In the artisan command, we can use --env to specify different .env files, so that under different subdomains, I can use different environments or even different databases. You should have also noticed that this site uses a multilingual environment, do you write two sets? Of course not, basically I created multiple .env in the same Project.
