Project description
Python’s Enum with extra powers to play nice with labels and choices fields.
Free software: BSD license
Documentation: https://python-choicesenum.readthedocs.io.
Installation
Install choicesenum using pip:
$ pip install choicesenum
Features
An ChoicesEnum that can be used to create constant groups.
ChoicesEnum can define labels to be used in choices fields.
Django fields included: EnumCharField and EnumIntegerField.
Support (tested) for Python 2.7, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6 and 3.7.
Support (tested) for Django 1.9, 1.10, 1.11, 2.0 and 2.1.
Usage examples
Example with HttpStatuses:
class HttpStatuses(ChoicesEnum):
OK = 200
BAD_REQUEST = 400
UNAUTHORIZED = 401
FORBIDDEN = 403
Example with Colors:
from choicesenum import ChoicesEnum
class Colors(ChoicesEnum):
RED = '#f00', 'Vermelho'
GREEN = '#0f0', 'Verde'
BLUE = '#00f', 'Azul'
Comparison
All Enum types can be compared against their values:
assert HttpStatuses.OK == 200
assert HttpStatuses.BAD_REQUEST == 400
assert HttpStatuses.UNAUTHORIZED == 401
assert HttpStatuses.FORBIDDEN == 403
status_code = HttpStatuses.OK
assert 200 <= status_code <= 300
assert Colors.RED == '#f00'
assert Colors.GREEN == '#0f0'
assert Colors.BLUE == '#00f'
Label for free
All Enum types have by default a display derived from the enum identifier:
assert HttpStatuses.OK.display == 'Ok'
assert HttpStatuses.BAD_REQUEST.display == 'Bad request'
assert HttpStatuses.UNAUTHORIZED.display == 'Unauthorized'
assert HttpStatuses.FORBIDDEN.display == 'Forbidden'
You can easily define your own custom display for an Enum item using a tuple:
class HttpStatuses(ChoicesEnum):
OK = 200, 'Everything is fine'
BAD_REQUEST = 400, 'You did a mistake'
UNAUTHORIZED = 401, 'I know your IP'
FORBIDDEN = 403
assert HttpStatuses.OK.display == 'Everything is fine'
assert HttpStatuses.BAD_REQUEST.display == 'You did a mistake'
assert HttpStatuses.UNAUTHORIZED.display == 'I know your IP'
assert HttpStatuses.FORBIDDEN.display == 'Forbidden'
Dynamic properties
For each enum item, a dynamic property is_<enum_item> is generated to allow quick boolean checks:
color = Colors.RED
assert color.is_red
assert not color.is_blue
assert not color.is_green
This feature is usefull to avoid comparing a received enum value against a know enum item.
For example, you can replace code like this:
# status = HttpStatuses.BAD_REQUEST
def check_status(status):
if status == HttpStatuses.OK:
print("Ok!")
To this:
def check_status(status):
if status.is_ok:
print("Ok!")
Custom methods and properties
You can declare custom properties and methods:
class HttpStatuses(ChoicesEnum):
OK = 200, 'Everything is fine'
BAD_REQUEST = 400, 'You did a mistake'
UNAUTHORIZED = 401, 'I know your IP'
FORBIDDEN = 403
@property
def is_error(self):
return self >= self.BAD_REQUEST
assert HttpStatuses.OK.is_error is False
assert HttpStatuses.BAD_REQUEST.is_error is True
assert HttpStatuses.UNAUTHORIZED.is_error is True
Iteration
The enum type is iterable:
>>> for color in Colors:
... print(repr(color))
Color('#f00').RED
Color('#0f0').GREEN
Color('#00f').BLUE
Order is guaranteed only for py3.4+. For fixed order in py2.7, you can implement a magic attribute _order_:
from choicesenum import ChoicesEnum
class Colors(ChoicesEnum):
_order_ = 'RED GREEN BLUE'
RED = '#f00', 'Vermelho'
GREEN = '#0f0', 'Verde'
BLUE = '#00f', 'Azul'
Choices
Use .choices() method to receive a list of tuples (item, display):
assert list(Colors.choices()) == [
('#f00', 'Vermelho'),
('#0f0', 'Verde'),
('#00f', 'Azul'),
]
Values
Use .values() method to receive a list of the inner values:
assert Colors.values() == ['#f00', '#0f0', '#00f', ]
Options
Even if a ChoicesEnum class is an iterator by itself, you can use .options() to convert the enum items to a list:
assert Colors.options() == [Colors.RED, Colors.GREEN, Colors.BLUE]
A “dict like” get
Use .get(value, default=None) method to receive default if value is not an item of enum:
assert Colors.get(Colors.RED) == Colors.RED
assert Colors.get('#f00') == Colors.RED
assert Colors.get('undefined_color') is None
assert Colors.get('undefined_color', Colors.RED) == Colors.RED
Compatibility
The enum item can be used whenever the value is needed:
assert u'Currrent color is {c} ({c.display})'.format(c=color) ==\
u'Currrent color is #f00 (Vermelho)'
Even in dicts and sets, as it shares the same hash() from his value:
d = {
HttpStatuses.OK.value: "using value",
HttpStatuses.BAD_REQUEST: "using enum",
401: "from original value",
}
assert d[HttpStatuses.OK] == "using value"
assert d[HttpStatuses.BAD_REQUEST.value] == "using enum"
assert d[HttpStatuses.OK] == d[HttpStatuses.OK.value]
assert d[HttpStatuses.UNAUTHORIZED] == d[401]
There’s also optimistic casting of inner types:
assert int(HttpStatuses.OK) == 200
assert float(HttpStatuses.OK) == 200.0
assert str(HttpStatuses.BAD_REQUEST) == "400"
Check membership:
assert HttpStatuses.OK in HttpStatuses
assert 200 in HttpStatuses
assert 999 not in HttpStatuses
JSON
If you want json serialization, you have at least two options:
Patch the default serializer.
Write a custom JSONEncoder.
ChoicesEnum comes with a handy patch funtion, you need to add this code to somewhere at the top of everything to automagically add json serialization capabilities:
from choicesenum.patches import patch_json
patch_json()
Django
Fields
Usage with the custom Django fields:
from django.db import models
from choicesenum.django.fields import EnumCharField
class ColorModel(models.Model):
color = EnumCharField(
max_length=100,
enum=Colors,
default=Colors.GREEN,
)
instance = ColorModel()
assert instance.color == Colors.GREEN
assert instance.color.is_green is True
assert instance.color.value == Colors.GREEN.value == '#0f0'
assert instance.color.display == Colors.GREEN.display
instance.color = '#f00'
assert instance.color == '#f00'
assert instance.color.value == '#f00'
assert instance.color.display == 'Vermelho'
Is guaranteed that the field value is always a ChoicesEnum item. Pay attention that the field will only accept valid values for the Enum in use, so if your field allow null, your enum should also:
from django.db import models
from choicesenum import ChoicesEnum
from choicesenum.django.fields import EnumIntegerField
class UserStatus(ChoicesEnum):
UNDEFINED = None
PENDING = 1
ACTIVE = 2
INACTIVE = 3
DELETED = 4
class User(models.Model):
status = EnumIntegerField(enum=UserStatus, null=True, )
instance = User()
assert instance.status.is_undefined is True
assert instance.status.value is None
assert instance.status == UserStatus.UNDEFINED
assert instance.status.display == 'Undefined'
# again...
instance.status = None
assert instance.status.is_undefined is True
Graphene
Usage with Graphene Enums:
UserStatusEnum = graphene.Enum.from_enum(UserStatus)
Schematics
Usage with Schematics Enums:
from schematics.models import Model as SchematicModel
from schematics.types import StringType, DateTimeType
from choicesenum import ChoicesEnum
from choicesenum.schematics.types import ChoicesEnumType
class HttpStatus(ChoicesEnum):
OK = 200
BAD_REQUEST = 400
UNAUTHORIZED = 401
FORBIDDEN = 403
class CustomSchematicModel(SchematicModel):
name = StringType(required=True, max_length=255)
created = DateTimeType(required=True, formats=('%d/%m/%Y', ''))
http = ChoicesEnumType(HttpStatuses, required=True)
