Problem with function instant("now)

[gserracalahorra]

Using fixture-factory-3.1.0, when fixture-factory trying to build this object

`public class ContactTemplate implements TemplateLoader
{
@OverRide public void load()
{
Fixture.of(Contact.class).addTemplate("valid", new Rule()
{
{
add("id", random(Long.class, range(1L, 10000L)));
add("codeUserClient", regex("[A-Za-z]{5,10}"));
add("locale", new Locale("es","ES"));
add("startDate", instant("now"));
add("endDate", instant("tomorrow"));
}
});

	Fixture.of(Contact.class).addTemplate("repository").inherits("valid", new Rule()
	{
		{
			add("id",null);
		}
	});
}

}
`
For this bean:

**`
@entity
@table(name = "AX_CONTACT")
public class Contact implements Serializable
{

private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

@Id
@GenericGenerator(name = "seq", strategy = "enhanced-sequence", parameters = {
        @org.hibernate.annotations.Parameter(name = "optimizer", value = "pooled"),
        @org.hibernate.annotations.Parameter(name = "sequence_name", value = "SEQ_AX_CONTACT"),
        @org.hibernate.annotations.Parameter(name = "initial_value", value = "1"),
        @org.hibernate.annotations.Parameter(name = "increment_size", value = "1")
})
@GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.SEQUENCE, generator = "seq")
@Column(name = "ID", length = 10, nullable = false)
private Long id;

@Column(name = "CODE_USER_CLIENT", nullable = false, length = 250)
private String codeUserClient;

@Column(name = "LANG", nullable = false, length = 5)
@Type(type = "locale")
private Locale locale;

@Column(name = "START_DATE",
		nullable = false)
private LocalDate startDate;

@Column(name = "END_DATE")
private LocalDate endDate;

public Contact()
{
    // empty constructor
}

public Long getId()
{
    return id;
}

public void setId(Long id)
{
    this.id = id;
}

public String getCodeUserClient()
{
    return codeUserClient;
}

public void setCodeUserClient(String codeUserClient)
{
    this.codeUserClient = codeUserClient;
}

public Locale getLocale()
{
    return locale;
}

public void setLocale(Locale locale)
{
    this.locale = locale;
}

public LocalDate getStartDate()
{
	return startDate;
}

public void setStartDate(LocalDate startDate)
{
	this.startDate = startDate;
}

public LocalDate getEndDate()
{
	return endDate;
}

public void setEndDate(LocalDate endDate)
{
	this.endDate = endDate;
}

@Override
public String toString()
{
	return "Contact{" + "id=" + id + ", codeUserClient='" + codeUserClient + '\'' + ", locale=" + locale + ", startDate=" + startDate
			+ ", endDate=" + endDate + '}';
}

}
`

Using this way:

Contact contact = Fixture.from(Contact.class).uses(getHibernateProcessor()).gimme("repository");

it fires the next exception.

¿What is the problem?

There is no support for LocalDate. instant function returns Date objects.
You could create an custom AtomicFunction and implement it by yourself.

e.g.

  public static AtomicFunction localDate() {
    return new AtomicFunction() {
      @Override
      public <T> T generateValue() {
        return (T) LocalDate.now();
      }
    };
  }

@nykolaslima I see a PR was merged to support java 8 datetime. Why isn't this released?
