Seed file not loading factory dependency

Any suggestions on how to load dependency of factory in seeds file?

factory.ex

alias Test/Utils/TextGenerator

def post_factory(attrs \\ %{}) do
%Post{
      body: TextGenerator.text_fake()
}
end

seeds.exs


{factory, _} = Code.require_file("factory.ex", "./test/support/") |> hd()

alias Blog.Posts

{time, _} =
  :timer.tc(fn ->
    tasks =
      Enum.map(1..100, fn _ ->
        Task.async(fn ->
post =
            factory.post_factory
            |> Map.from_struct()

          Enum.each(1..100, fn _ -> Posts.create_post(post) end)

 end)
      end)

    Task.await_many(tasks, 20_000)
  end)

This is the error I get…

** (UndefinedFunctionError) function Blog.Utils.TextGenerator.text_fake/0 is undefined (module  Blog.Utils.TextGenerator is not available)
    Blog.Utils.TextGenerator.text_fake()

A typical approach with using factory-ish files in seeds.exs is to include test/support when compiling in dev:

  defp elixirc_paths(:test), do: ["lib", "test/support"]
  defp elixirc_paths(:dev), do: ["lib", "test/support"]
  defp elixirc_paths(_), do: ["lib"]

(normally only :test includes that directory)

This should avoid any need to manually invoke Code.require_file.
