Available vendor names are: visa
, master-card
, diners-club
, american-express
, discover
, jsb
. Multiply vendors are acceptable.
It is possible to add new vendor, have a look at examples into the vendors
directory.
-n
flag is for repeating, in case no provided cli will take it as a number of vendors provided.
For the node module usage example have a look at bin/cardgen
file.
Q. What does this code ..for (; i --> 0 ;) {..
means?
A. This is fancy way to write reverse loop, which is arguably looks cleaner compared with classic version of it ..for(var i = array.length; i > 0; i--)
. In fact construction -->
is combination of two operators >
and --
, so every step i
get compared if it is still more than zero and decremented by one afteword.
- Split out cli and core generator as a separate modules
- Make use in browser and other environments
