pipeline.domain.datatype.Enum

class Enum(new_class_name, /, names, *, module=None, qualname=None, type=None, start=1, boundary=None)[source]

Bases: object

Create a collection of name/value pairs.

Example enumeration:

>>> class Color(Enum):
...     RED = 1
...     BLUE = 2
...     GREEN = 3

Access them by:

  • attribute access:

    >>> Color.RED
    <Color.RED: 1>
    
  • value lookup:

    >>> Color(1)
    <Color.RED: 1>
    
  • name lookup:

    >>> Color['RED']
    <Color.RED: 1>
    

Enumerations can be iterated over, and know how many members they have:

>>> len(Color)
3
>>> list(Color)
[<Color.RED: 1>, <Color.BLUE: 2>, <Color.GREEN: 3>]

Methods can be added to enumerations, and members can have their own attributes -- see the documentation for details.

classmethod __contains__(value)

Return True if value is in cls.

value is in cls if: 1) value is a member of cls, or 2) value is the value of one of the cls's members. 3) value is a pseudo-member (flags)

classmethod __getitem__(name)

Return the member matching name.

classmethod __iter__()

Return members in definition order.

classmethod __len__()

Return the number of members (no aliases)
