@weedoit/easyenum v1.0.3

@weedoit/easyenum

@weedoit/easyenum is a TypeScript utility function that allows you to create enum-like structures using plain objects. It provides a type-safe and flexible alternative to TypeScript's built-in enums, and is ideal for scenarios where you need to define a limited set of string values as constants.

Installation

You can install @weedoit/easyenum using npm:

npm install @weedoit/easyenum

Usage

To use EasyEnum, simply import the function from the @weedoit/easyenum module and call it with a list of string values:

import { EasyEnum } from '@weedoit/easyenum';

const UserRole = EasyEnum('ADMIN', 'CLIENT', 'SYSTEM');

This will return an object with properties that correspond to the string values passed to EasyEnum. The properties are set to the same value as their name.

You can use the resulting object like an enum:

function doSomething(value: keyof typeof UserRole) {
  // ...
}

doSomething(UserRole.ADMIN);

Note that the properties of the object returned by EasyEnum are of type keyof typeof UserRole, which is a union of the string literal types that correspond to the keys of the object. This ensures that you can only pass valid enum values to functions that accept them.
