class MyClass {
  private lazyVin;

  constructor() {
    this.lazyVin = new LazyVin();
  }

  someSlightlyBetterMethod(): string {
    return this.lazyVin.getRandomValidVin();
  }

  someMethod(): string {
    return this.lazyVin.getRandomCleanVin();
  }

  someRiskierMethod(): string {
    return this.lazyVin.getRandomDirtyVin();
  }
}

Methods

This library exposes the following methods:

getRandomValidVin()

Returns a quick and dirty 'random' VIN, complete with a North American valid Check Digit/Checkdigit).

getRandomDirtyVin()

A simple, quick and dirty 'random' VIN. It is not guaranteed to be valid. ...did I mention it's quick and dirty?

getRandomCleanVin()

A simple, quick and 'clean' 'random' VIN. It is not guaranteed to be valid. ...did I mention it's quick and clean?
What makes the return value more 'clean' is a randomly generated six digit unique identifier at the end of a given VIN. The aim is to lower the chances of getting a repeat VIN--not eliminate it.
