    Function createEnum

    • Create a TypeScript style enum class which is a mapping that maps from the key -> value and the value -> key. This is effectively the same as defining a non-constant enum, but this only repeats the "Name" of the enum value once.

      Type Parameters

      • E

        Identifies the const enum type being mapped

      Parameters

      • values: { [key in string | number | symbol]: E[keyof E] }

        The values to populate on the new object

      Returns EnumCls<E>

      A new frozen (immutable) object which looks and acts like a TypeScript Enum class.

      const enum Animal {
      Dog = 0,
      Cat = 1,
      Butterfly = 2,
      Bear = 3
      }
      const Animals = createEnum<typeof Animal>({
      Dog: Animal.Dog,
      Cat: Animal.Cat,
      Butterfly: Animal.Butterfly,
      Bear: Animal.Bear
      });
      // You end up with an object that maps everything to the name
      Animals.Dog === 0; // true
      Animals[0] === "Dog"; // true
      Animals["Dog"] === 0; // true
      Animals.Cat === 1; // true
      Animals[1] === "Cat"; // true
      Animals["Cat"] === 1; // true
