EnumToClass 1.0.3

EnumToClass Generatror

Enum to class generator generates smart enum class containing constant strings equivalent to enum names. The class decorated with EnumToClassAttribute becomes closed type with private constructor and readonly properties.

Usage

namespace EnumToClass.Tests.Integration;

public enum TestElements
{
    None,
    Element1,
    Element2,
    Element3
}

[EnumToClass<TestElements>]
internal sealed partial class TestElementClass
{
}

[EnumToClass<TestElements>]
public sealed partial record TestElementRecord
{
}

The default element of the enum will be generated with flag IsEmpty set to true.

The generator will emit the following partial classes:

TestElementClass_Constants.g.cs:

//<auto-generated />     
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Collections.ObjectModel;
#nullable enable

namespace EnumToClass.Tests.Integration
{
    internal partial class TestElementClass            
    {
        private static readonly ReadOnlyDictionary<string, TestElementClass> ValueByNameMap = new ReadOnlyDictionary<string, TestElementClass>(new Dictionary<string, TestElementClass>()
        {
            ["None"] = new TestElementClass(EnumToClass.Tests.Integration.TestElements.None),
            ["Element1"] = new TestElementClass(EnumToClass.Tests.Integration.TestElements.Element1),
            ["Element2"] = new TestElementClass(EnumToClass.Tests.Integration.TestElements.Element2),
            ["Element3"] = new TestElementClass(EnumToClass.Tests.Integration.TestElements.Element3)
        });                        
        public const string None = "None";
        public const string Element1 = "Element1";
        public const string Element2 = "Element2";
        public const string Element3 = "Element3";
    }
}

and TestElementClass_Constructors.g.cs:

//<auto-generated />                        
using System.Collections.Generic;
#nullable enable
namespace EnumToClass.Tests.Integration
{
    internal partial class TestElementClass            
    {                    
        private TestElementClass(Integration.TestElements value)
        {
            Name = value.ToString();
            IsEmpty = value == default(Integration.TestElements);
            Value = value;
        }
        public string Name { get; }
        public Integration.TestElements Value { get; }
        public bool IsEmpty { get; }                            

        public static TestElementClass Empty { get; } = new TestElementClass(default(Integration.TestElements));
        public override string ToString() => Name;
        
                public override bool Equals(object? obj)
        {
            return obj is TestElementClass element
                ? element.Value == Value
                : base.Equals(obj);
        }
        public override int GetHashCode() => Value.GetHashCode();
       
        public static IReadOnlyCollection<TestElementClass> GetAll() => ValueByNameMap.Values;
            
        public static IEnumerable<TestElementClass> GetByName(IEnumerable<string> names)
            => names.Select(GetByName).Where(p => p.IsEmpty == false);

        public static TestElementClass GetByName(string name)
        {
            return ValueByNameMap.TryGetValue(name, out var value)
                ? value
                : Empty;
        }
        public static implicit operator TestElementClass(string name) => GetByName(name);
        public static implicit operator string(TestElementClass value) => value.Name;
        public static implicit operator Integration.TestElements(TestElementClass value) => value.Value;
        public static implicit operator TestElementClass(Integration.TestElements value) => GetByName(value.ToString());
        public static implicit operator int(TestElementClass value) => (int) value.Value;
    }
}
