------------

.. code:: bash

        $ pip install easy_enum

To install the latest version from master branch execute in shell
following commands:

.. code:: bash

        $ pip install -U https://github.com/molejar/pyEnum/archive/master.zip

In case of development, install pyEnum from sources:

.. code:: bash

        $ git clone https://github.com/molejar/pyEnum.git
        $ cd pyEnum
        $ pip install -U -e .

You may run into a permissions issues running these commands. Here are a
few options how to fix it:

2. Specify the ``--user`` option to install locally into your home
   directory (export "~/.local/bin" into PATH variable if haven't).
3. Run the command in a
   `virtualenv <https://virtualenv.pypa.io/en/latest/>`__ local to a
   specific project working set.

Usage
-----

Following example is showing how easy you can use this Enum in your
code:

.. code:: python

        from easy_enum import Enum

        class TestEnum(Enum):

            # attribute with no description, the name will be 'FIRST_ITEM' and empty string as description
            FIRST_ITEM  = 1

            # attribute with description
            SECOND_ITEM = (2, 'Description for second item')

            # attribute with description and custom string name
            THIRD_ITEM  = (3, 'third', 'Description for third item')

            # attribute with custom string name (the description must be specified as empty string)
            FOURTH_ITEM = (4, 'fourth', '')


        # Read attributes value and name
        print(TestEnum.SECOND_ITEM)    # 2
        print(TestEnum['FIRST_ITEM'])  # 1
        print(TestEnum[1])             # 'FIRST_ITEM'
        print(TestEnum[3])             # 'third'
        print(TestEnum['third'])       # 3

        # Check if exist attribute with specific value
        print(1 in TestEnum)           # True
        print(8 in TestEnum)           # False

        # Check if exist attribute with specific name
        print('first' in TestEnum)     # False
        print('third' in TestEnum)     # True

        # Get attribute description (as parameter use attribute name or value)
        print(TestEnum.desc(1))        # ''
        print(TestEnum.desc(2))        # 'Description for second item'
        print(TestEnum.desc('third'))  # 'Description for third item'

        # Get count of all attributes
        print(len(TestEnum))           # 4

        # Get list with all attributes name
        names = [item[0] for item in TestEnum]
        print(names)                   # ['FIRST_ITEM', 'SECOND_ITEM', 'third', 'fourth']

        # Get list with all attributes value
        values = [item[1] for item in TestEnum]
        print(values)                  # [1, 2, 3, 4]

        # Read all items
        for name, value, desc in TestEnum:
            print('{} = {} ({})'.format(name, value, desc))
