Documentation for confirmCardSetup incorrect

[jfreeze]

The docs show an example obtaining a setupIntent by calling

stripe.confirmCardSetup(setupIntentId, {

but the Stripe documentation says that instead of the id, the client_secret should be the first argument

stripe.confirmCardSetup('{SETUP_INTENT_CLIENT_SECRET}', {

When using the id, Stripe reports the error to me that a client_secret should be used, but I am unable to get either method working.

I agree the README needs to be updated.

https://stripe.com/docs/api/setup_intents/object#setup_intent_object-client_secret

RE: neither working. I keep thinking we need an example application along side a client side application. This might be an impetus for me to make one.

I think I now know how to get setup_intent working. I was missing basic understanding that you want to use one of payment_intent or setup_intent, not both.

I was also misguided by the readme suggesting that an id is needed rather than clientSecret. I probably should've read the official docs. https://stripe.com/docs/payments/save-and-reuse

Furthermore, the documentation at https://stripe.com/docs/payments/save-and-reuse creates a customer beforehand and passes it to the SetupIntent.
