I'm fairly new when it comes to metaclass programming and therefore the
question whether the following makes sense or not.
The goal is to have two additional class properties which return a
dictionary name:class_attribute and value:class_attribute for an IntEnum class
and after reading about it I came to the conclusion that the following code
might do what I want, and it does do the job BUT does it make sense also?
Meaning, my ultimate goal would be to be able to decide myself
if this is a good or bad idea doing this, so what do I need to
read/understand in order to achieve such a goal.
from enum import EnumMeta, IntEnum
class EnhancedIntEnum(EnumMeta):
@property
def names(cls):
return {k: v for k, v in cls.__members__.items()}
@property
def values(cls):
return {v.value: v for k, v in cls.__members__.items()}
class Ordinal(IntEnum, metaclass=EnhancedIntEnum):
NORTH = 0
SOUTH = 1
EAST = 2
WEST = 3
print(Ordinal.names)
print(Ordinal.values)
Thank you
Eren
