Description

stdWrap lacks support for generatiung a random number between to points set.

asking for Introducing a feature:
stdWrap.random = lowerBound|UpperBound|Precision

with
lowerBound=smallest possible Value
upperBound=highest possible Value
precision= 0 , 1 or 2 point out number of decimals the value can have

Would be useful in such a case:
...COA_INT
10 = CASE
10 {
key.random = 0|5|0
1 =TEXT1
2=TEXT2
3=TEXT3
4=TEXT2
5=TEXT3
}

implementation will follow the next days
(issue imported from #M8514)

Why just a number?

I'd love to use this for password / hash generation as well :)

stdWrap.random = number
or
stdWrap.random = string

stdWrap.random.minLength = 5
stdWrap.random.maxLength = 20

or :
stdWrap.hash = md5

Why not adding an stdWrap feature for evakuation PHP directly?

stdWrap.evalPHP = md5(uniqid());

Of course would be probably a security issue.

For discussion: Just added a simple implementation. I could complete/enlarge it. But it solves the TS sample Steffen posted.

patch works for me

number_int = TEXT
number_int {
  randomNumber {
    min = -5
    max = 5
  }
}

random might also be useful to just generate a md5-like random string. If you want, maybe give it a charset-parameter from which to take chracters for the random-generation. If you want things like "always starts with a letter" you could use two random strings (one just a-z, the other a-z0-9 or so).

this can be easily achieved nowadays:

10 = TEXT
10.value = -1,-2,-3,-4,0,1,2,3,4
10.listNum = rand

the hashing works with
10.hash = md5
