Enums in Script Context

[lucuma]

I’m having a bit of trouble trying to use an enum in a ScriptContext. What is the recommended way to implement or use an enum in a script:

#if SomeObject.EnumField != MyEnum.TheValue

This actually fails at run time:

 var context = new ScriptContext() {
               ScriptTypes = 
               {
                   typeof(MyEnum)
               }

            }.Init();

You can use the isEnum() or hasFlag() scripts, see:

Templates and flag enum TemplateFilter

You should use source.Has(value) or .NET’s intrinsic source.HasFlag(value) (more performant) to check for enum flags, Is does an exact (i.e. ==) match. As this is useful I’ve added new generic hasFlag and isEnum default filters which you can use for different enum types that lets you use either the string value, Enum value or Enum’s integer value, e.g: Given Enum and args: public enum Options { None = 0, Option1 = 1, Option2 = 2, //= 1 << 1 Option4 = 4, //=1 << 2 } Args = { ["…
