# Magic Enum C++

Header-only C++17 library provides static reflection for enums, work with any enum type without any macro or boilerplate code.

## Documentation

* [Reference](doc/reference.md)
* [Limitations](doc/limitations.md)
* [Integration](#Integration)

## [Examples](example/)

* Enum value to string

  ```cpp
  Color color = Color::RED;
  auto color_name = magic_enum::enum_name(color);
  // color_name -> "RED"
  ```

* String to enum value

  ```cpp
  std::string color_name{"GREEN"};
  auto color = magic_enum::enum_cast<Color>(color_name);
  if (color.has_value()) {
    // color.value() -> Color::GREEN
  }

  auto color_or_default = magic_enum::enum_cast<Color>(value).value_or(Color::NONE);
  ```

* Integer to enum value

  ```cpp
  int color_integer = 2;
  auto color = magic_enum::enum_cast<Color>(color_integer);
  if (color.has_value()) {
    // color.value() -> Color::BLUE
  }

  auto color_or_default = magic_enum::enum_cast<Color>(value).value_or(Color::NONE);
  ```

* Indexed access to enum value

  ```cpp
  std::size_t i = 0;
  Color color = magic_enum::enum_value<Color>(i);
  // color -> Color::RED
  ```

* Enum value sequence

  ```cpp
  constexpr auto colors = magic_enum::enum_values<Color>();
  // colors -> {Color::RED, Color::BLUE, Color::GREEN}
  // colors[0] -> Color::RED
  ```

* Number of enum elements

  ```cpp
  constexpr std::size_t color_count = magic_enum::enum_count<Color>();
  // color_count -> 3
  ```

* Enum value to integer

  ```cpp
  Color color = Color::RED;
  auto color_integer = magic_enum::enum_integer(color); // or magic_enum::enum_underlying(color);
  // color_integer -> 1
  ```

* Enum names sequence

  ```cpp
  constexpr auto color_names = magic_enum::enum_names<Color>();
  // color_names -> {"RED", "BLUE", "GREEN"}
  // color_names[0] -> "RED"
  ```

* Enum entries sequence

  ```cpp
  constexpr auto color_entries = magic_enum::enum_entries<Color>();
  // color_entries -> {{Color::RED, "RED"}, {Color::BLUE, "BLUE"}, {Color::GREEN, "GREEN"}}
  // color_entries[0].first -> Color::RED
  // color_entries[0].second -> "RED"
  ```

* Enum fusion for multi-level switch/case statements

  ```cpp
  switch (magic_enum::enum_fuse(color, direction).value()) {
    case magic_enum::enum_fuse(Color::RED, Directions::Up).value(): // ...
    case magic_enum::enum_fuse(Color::BLUE, Directions::Down).value(): // ...
  // ...
  }
  ```

* Enum switch runtime value as constexpr constant
  ```cpp
  Color color = Color::RED;
  magic_enum::enum_switch([] (auto val) {
    constexpr Color c_color = val;
    // ...
  }, color);
  ```

* Enum iterate for each enum as constexpr constant
  ```cpp
  magic_enum::enum_for_each<Color>([] (auto val) {
    constexpr Color c_color = val;
    // ...
  });
  ```

* Check if enum contains

  ```cpp
  magic_enum::enum_contains(Color::GREEN); // -> true
  magic_enum::enum_contains<Color>(2); // -> true
  magic_enum::enum_contains<Color>(123); // -> false
  magic_enum::enum_contains<Color>("GREEN"); // -> true
  magic_enum::enum_contains<Color>("fda"); // -> false
  ```

* Enum index in sequence

  ```cpp
  constexpr auto color_index = magic_enum::enum_index(Color::BLUE);
  // color_index.value() -> 1
  // color_index.has_value() -> true
  ```

* Functions for flags

  ```cpp
  enum Directions : std::uint64_t {
    Left = 1,
    Down = 2,
    Up = 4,
    Right = 8,
  };
  template <>
  struct magic_enum::customize::enum_range<Directions> {
    static constexpr bool is_flags = true;
  };

  magic_enum::enum_flags_name(Directions::Up | Directions::Right); // directions_name -> "Directions::Up|Directions::Right"
  magic_enum::enum_flags_contains(Directions::Up | Directions::Right); // -> true
  magic_enum::enum_flags_cast(3); // -> "Directions::Left|Directions::Down"
  ```

* Enum type name

  ```cpp
  Color color = Color::RED;
  auto type_name = magic_enum::enum_type_name<decltype(color)>();
  // type_name -> "Color"
  ```

* IOstream operator for enum

  ```cpp
  using namespace magic_enum::ostream_operators; // out-of-the-box ostream operators for enums.
  Color color = Color::BLUE;
  std::cout << color << std::endl; // "BLUE"

  using namespace magic_enum::ostream_operators; // out-of-the-box ostream operators for enums.
  Color color = Color::BLUE;
  std::cout << color << std::endl; // "BLUE"
  ```

* Bitwise operator for enum

  ```cpp
  enum class Flags { A = 1 << 0, B = 1 << 1, C = 1 << 2, D = 1 << 3 };
  using namespace magic_enum::bitwise_operators; // out-of-the-box bitwise operators for enums.
  // Support operators: ~, |, &, ^, |=, &=, ^=.
  Flags flags = Flags::A | Flags::B & ~Flags::C;
  ```

* Checks whether type is an [Unscoped enumeration](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/enum#Unscoped_enumeration).

  ```cpp
  enum color { red, green, blue };
  enum class direction { left, right };

  magic_enum::is_unscoped_enum<color>::value -> true
  magic_enum::is_unscoped_enum<direction>::value -> false
  magic_enum::is_unscoped_enum<int>::value -> false

  // Helper variable template.
  magic_enum::is_unscoped_enum_v<color> -> true
  ```

* Checks whether type is an [Scoped enumeration](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/enum#Scoped_enumerations).

  ```cpp
  enum color { red, green, blue };
  enum class direction { left, right };

  magic_enum::is_scoped_enum<color>::value -> false
  magic_enum::is_scoped_enum<direction>::value -> true
  magic_enum::is_scoped_enum<int>::value -> false

  // Helper variable template.
  magic_enum::is_scoped_enum_v<direction> -> true
  ```

* Static storage enum variable to string
  This version is much lighter on the compile times and is not restricted to the enum_range [limitation](doc/limitations.md).

  ```cpp
  constexpr Color color = Color::BLUE;
  constexpr auto color_name = magic_enum::enum_name<color>();
  // color_name -> "BLUE"
  ```

* `containers::array` array container for enums.

  ```cpp
  magic_enum::containers::array<Color, RGB> color_rgb_array {};
  color_rgb_array[Color::RED] = {255, 0, 0};
  color_rgb_array[Color::GREEN] = {0, 255, 0};
  color_rgb_array[Color::BLUE] = {0, 0, 255};
  std::get<Color::BLUE>(color_rgb_array) // -> RGB{0, 0, 255}
  ```

* `containers::bitset` bitset container for enums.

  ```cpp
  constexpr magic_enum::containers::bitset<Color> color_bitset_red_green {Color::RED|Color::GREEN};
  bool all = color_bitset_red_green.all();
  // all -> false
  // Color::BLUE is missing
  bool test = color_bitset_red_green.test(Color::RED);
  // test -> true
  ```

* `containers::set` set container for enums.

  ```cpp
  auto color_set = magic_enum::containers::set<Color>();
  bool empty = color_set.empty();
  // empty -> true
  color_set.insert(Color::GREEN);
  color_set.insert(Color::BLUE);
  color_set.insert(Color::RED);
  std::size_t size = color_set.size();
  // size -> 3
  ```

* Improved UB-free "SFINAE-friendly" [underlying_type](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/types/underlying_type).

  ```cpp
  magic_enum::underlying_type<color>::type -> int

  // Helper types.
  magic_enum::underlying_type_t<Direction> -> int
  ```
## Remarks

* `magic_enum` does not pretend to be a silver bullet for reflection for enums, it was originally designed for small enum.

* Before use, read the [limitations](doc/limitations.md) of functionality.

## Integration

* You should add the required file [magic_enum.hpp](include/magic_enum.hpp).

* If you are using [vcpkg](https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg/) on your project for external dependencies, then you can use the [magic-enum package](https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg/tree/master/ports/magic-enum).

* If you are using [Conan](https://www.conan.io/) to manage your dependencies, merely add `magic_enum/x.y.z` to your conan's requires, where `x.y.z` is the release version you want to use.

* If you are using [Build2](https://build2.org/) to build and manage your dependencies, add `depends: magic_enum ^x.y.z` to the manifest file where `x.y.z` is the release version you want to use. You can then import the target using `magic_enum%lib{magic_enum}`.

* Alternatively, you can use something like [CPM](https://github.com/TheLartians/CPM) which is based on CMake's `Fetch_Content` module.

  ```cmake
  CPMAddPackage(
      NAME magic_enum
      GITHUB_REPOSITORY Neargye/magic_enum
      GIT_TAG x.y.z # Where `x.y.z` is the release version you want to use.
  )
  ```

* Bazel is also supported, simply add to your WORKSPACE file:

  ```
  http_archive(
      name = "magic_enum",
      strip_prefix = "magic_enum-<commit>",
      urls = ["https://github.com/Neargye/magic_enum/archive/<commit>.zip"],
  )
  ```

  To use bazel inside the repository it's possible to do:

  ```
  bazel build //...
  bazel test //...
  bazel run //example
  ```

  (Note that you must use a supported compiler or specify it with `export CC= <compiler>`.)

* If you are using [Ros](https://www.ros.org/), you can include this package by adding `<depend>magic_enum</depend>` to your package.xml and include this package in your workspace. In your CMakeLists.txt add the following:
  ```cmake
  find_package(magic_enum CONFIG REQUIRED)
  ...
  target_link_libraries(your_executable magic_enum::magic_enum)
  ```
