|
| 3 | ```js
|
| 4 | // usage
|
| 5 | chance.exp_month()
|
| 6 | chance.exp_month({future: true})
|
| 7 | ```
|
| 8 |
|
| 9 | Generate a random credit card expiration month.
|
| 10 |
|
| 11 | ```js
|
| 12 | chance.exp_month();
|
| 13 | => '01'
|
| 14 | ```
|
| 15 |
|
| 16 | Optionally specify that it must be a later month than the current month.
|
| 17 |
|
| 18 | ```js
|
| 19 | chance.exp_month({future: true});
|
| 20 | => '10'
|
| 21 | ```
|
| 22 |
|
| 23 | So if called in June, this would return a random month from July - Dec. If
|
| 24 | called in October, would return November or December.
|
| 25 |
|
| 26 | This because many credit card sandboxes require an expiration date later
|
| 27 | than the current date so it's necessary when generating an expiration with the
|
| 28 | current year to generate a month later than the current month.
