Craft Enums
===========

[](#craft-enums)

The Craft Enum is a PHP enum generator. It generates all Fields, Section, Volume ... handles write to code as cases.

```
// Get a section
$section = Section::Posts->section()
// Create a entry with sectionId
$entry = Section::Posts->new()
// Entry query with section
$entryQuery = Section::Post->find();
// Replace string handle (Not recommended)
$section = Craft::$app->secionts->getSectionByHandle(Section::Posts->value);
```

```
Note: You cannot use PHP enumerations to directly replace string. You should write `getSectionByHandle(Section::Posts->value)` instead of `getSectionByHandle(Section::Posts)`(error).
      Maybe, never try to use enums instead of strings or constants, but use the convenience methods of the enum class.

```

### Generate

[](#generate)

- Manual

Reference: [CraftCMS Docs](https://craftcms.com/docs/5.x/extend/generator.html#usage)

```
php craft make enums
```

Generate enums to `src/enums`

```
ddev craft make enums --path=src
```

- Automatic

It is recommended that you register events to generate real-time:

```
use panlatent\craft\enums\Enums;
Event::on(ProjectConfig::class, ProjectConfig::EVENT_AFTER_WRITE_YAML_FILES), function() {
    (new \Symfony\Component\Process\Process(['php', 'craft', 'make', 'enums', '--path=src', '--interactive=1'], Craft::getAlias('@root'), [Enums::DISABLE_INTERACTIVE => true]))->mustRun();
});
```

We use the `Symfony Process` component to run build commands when the project changes, using `--interactive=1` and `Enums::DISABLE_INTERACTIVE => true` in order to bypass CraftCMS limitation.
