About

A enum library for Python.

enum
A simple enum implementation that maps a "variable" to a constant.
RichEnum
An enum implementation that offers more functionality than a basic enum, hence the name: RichEnum. Provided functionality include specifying a canonical name and a display name. The canonical name should be used if you need to do a lookup or reference in your code. The display name should be used if you need to display text to a user.
OrderedRichEnum
Exactly like RichEnum but also has an index specified for each enum value. Also, iteration over an OrderedRichEnum will be sorted (ascending) by the enum value's index.
