Laravel Enum Package for Generating enum-php Classes

Laravel Enum by Andrea Marco Sartori is a Laravel package for generating enum classes using enum-php.

As shown in the README, let’s say you wanted to build a Status enum. You can use the following command to generate the class and keys:

php artisan make:enum Status 'IN_PROGRESS|COMPLETE|FAILED'

Will make the following Enum class:

<?php
 
namespace App\Enums;
 
use Rexlabs\Enum\Enum;
 
/**
 * The Status enum.
 *
 * @method static self IN_PROGRESS()
 * @method static self COMPLETE()
 * @method static self FAILED()
 */
class Status extends Enum
{
    const IN_PROGRESS = 'in_progress';
    const COMPLETE = 'complete';
    const FAILED = 'failed';
}

Further, here’s how you define keys and map them to human-readable names:

php artisan make:enum Status 'IN_PROGRESS=1=In progress|COMPLETE=2=Complete|FAILED=3=Failed'

Which generates the following class:

<?php
 
namespace App\Enums;
 
use Rexlabs\Enum\Enum;
 
/**
 * The Status enum.
 *
 * @method static self IN_PROGRESS()
 * @method static self COMPLETE()
 * @method static self FAILED()
 */
class Status extends Enum
{
    const IN_PROGRESS = 1;
    const COMPLETE = 2;
    const FAILED = 3;
 
    /**
     * Retrieve a map of enum keys and values.
     *
     * @return array
     */
    public static function map() : array
    {
        return [
            static::IN_PROGRESS => 'In progress',
            static::COMPLETE => 'Complete',
            static::FAILED => 'Failed',
        ];
    }
}
