Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

  • MasterCard
  • American Express
  • Diners Club
  • Discover
  • UnionPay

(Custom card types are also supported)

Installation / Usage

npm (Node and Browserify)

npm install creditcardutils --save
var creditcardutils = require('creditcardutils');

// Format input for card number 
creditcardutils.formatCardNumber(input); //=> returns formatted card number

// Validate a credit card number
creditcardutils.validateCardNumber('4242 4242 4242 4242'); //=> true

// Get card type from number
creditcardutils.parseCardType('4242 4242 4242 4242'); //=> 'visa'

API

General Formatting and Validation

creditcardutils.formatCardNumber(input)

Formats card numbers:

  • Includes a space between every 4 digits
  • Restricts input to numbers
  • Limits to 16 numbers
  • Supports American Express formatting

Example:

creditcardutils.formatCardNumber(input); //=>returns formatted card number

creditcardutils.validateCardNumber(number)

Validates a card number:

  • Validates numbers
  • Validates Luhn algorithm
  • Validates length

Example:

creditcardutils.validateCardNumber('4242 4242 4242 4242'); //=> true

creditcardutils.validateCardExpiry(month, year)

Validates a card expiry:

  • Validates numbers
  • Validates in the future
  • Supports year shorthand

Example:

creditcardutils.validateCardExpiry('05', '20'); //=> true
creditcardutils.validateCardExpiry('05', '2015'); //=> true
creditcardutils.validateCardExpiry('05', '05'); //=> false

creditcardutils.validateCardCVC(cvc, type)

Validates a card CVC:

  • Validates number
  • Validates length to 4

Example:

creditcardutils.validateCardCVC('123'); //=> true
creditcardutils.validateCardCVC('123', 'amex'); //=> true
creditcardutils.validateCardCVC('1234', 'amex'); //=> true
creditcardutils.validateCardCVC('12344'); //=> false

creditcardutils.parseCardType(number)

Returns a card type. Either:

  • visa
  • mastercard
  • amex
  • dinersclub
  • discover
  • unionpay
  • jcb
  • visaelectron
  • maestro
  • forbrugsforeningen
  • dankort

The function will return null if the card type can't be determined.

Example:

creditcardutils.parseCardType('4242 4242 4242 4242'); //=> 'visa'
creditcardutils.parseCardType('hello world?'); //=> null

creditcardutils.parseCardExpiry(string)

Parses a credit card expiry in the form of MM/YYYY, returning an object containing the month and year. Shorthand years, such as 13 are also supported (and converted into the longhand, e.g. 2013).

creditcardutils.parseCardExpiry('03 / 2025'); //=> {month: 3: year: 2025}
creditcardutils.parseCardExpiry('05 / 04'); //=> {month: 5, year: 2004}

This function doesn't perform any validation of the month or year; use creditcardutils.validateCardExpiry(month, year) for that.

Custom Cards

creditcardutils.cards

Array of objects that describe valid card types. Each object should contain the following fields:

{
  // Card type, as returned by creditcardutils.parseCardType.
  type: 'mastercard',
  // Regex used to identify the card type. For the best experience, this should be
  // the shortest pattern that can guarantee the card is of a particular type.
  pattern: /^5[0-5]/,
  // Array of valid card number lengths.
  length: [16],
  // Array of valid card CVC lengths.
  cvcLength: [3],
  // Boolean indicating whether a valid card number should satisfy the Luhn check.
  luhn: true,
  // Regex used to format the card number. Each match is joined with a space.
  format: /(\d{1,4})/g
}

When identifying a card type, the array is traversed in order until the card number matches a pattern. For this reason, patterns with higher specificity should appear towards the beginning of the array.
