Describe your enums!

Find yourself creating methods like `label()`, `description()` or `icon()` on your enums? This very simple package takes the legwork out of doing so for you, and gives you the same functionality without implementing the methods.

Instead, just describe your cases with attributes!

Example
-------

[](#example)

Simply use the `Describable` trait and describe your cases with the `DescribeEnum` attribute using named parameters.

Methods on the enum values are now available, as well as static `*Cases` methods on the enum type.

```
use Legecha\Enumpty\Attributes\DescribeEnum;
use Legecha\Enumpty\Describable;

enum MyEnum
{
    use Describable;

    #[DescribeEnum(label: 'My First Case', description: "My first description")]
    case First;
    #[DescribeEnum(description: "My second description", label: 'My 2nd Case'])
    case Second;
    case Third;
    #[DescribeEnum(label: 'My Fourth Case')]
    case Fourth;
}

$enum = MyEnum::First;
$enum->label(); // string(13) "My First Case"
$enum->description(); // string(20) "My first description"

$enum = MyEnum::Third;
$enum->description(); // NULL

MyEnum::labelCases();
/*
array(4) {
  ["MyEnum::First"]=>
  string(13) "My First Case"
  ["MyEnum::Second"]=>
  string(11) "My 2nd Case"
  ["MyEnum::Third"]=>
  NULL
  ["MyEnum::Fourth"]=>
  string(14) "My Fourth Case"
}
*/
MyEnum::descriptionCases();
/*
array(4) {
  ["MyEnum::First"]=>
  string(20) "My first description"
  ["MyEnum::Second"]=>
  string(21) "My second description"
  ["MyEnum::Third"]=>
  NULL
  ["MyEnum::Fourth"]=>
  NULL
}
*/
```

But wait, there's more!
-----------------------

[](#but-wait-theres-more)

There is also the `Names` trait, which provides a `name()` method to get a "pretty" version of your enum case's name, and a `names()` static method to retrieve them all for a specific enum. No attributes required.

```
use Legecha\Enumpty\Names;

enum MyEnum
{
    use Names;

    case MyFirstCase;
    case Second;
    case HereIsTheThird;
    case DontForgetTheFourth;
}

$enum = MyEnum::MyFirstCase;
$enum->name(); // string(13) "My First Case"
MyEnum::HereIsTheThird->name(); // string (15) "Here Is The Third"

MyEnum::names();
/*
array(4) {
  ["MyEnum::MyFirstCase"]=>
  string(13) "My First Case"
  ["MyEnum::Second"]=>
  string(6) "Second"
  ["MyEnum::HereIsTheThird"]=>
  string(15) "Here Is The Third"
  ["MyEnum::DontForGetTheFourth"]=>
  string(23) "Dont Forget The Fourth"
}
*/
```
