How to make JSON.NET StringEnumConverter use hyphen-separated casing

Question

I\'m consuming an api which returns string values like this. some-enum-value

I try to put these values in an enum, since the default StringEnumConverter

Answer 1

Also u can use this methods:

public static string GetDescription(this Enum member)
        {
            if (member.GetType().IsEnum == false)
                throw new ArgumentOutOfRangeException(nameof(member), "member is not enum");

            var fieldInfo = member.GetType().GetField(member.ToString());

            if (fieldInfo == null)
                return null;

            var attributes = fieldInfo.GetCustomAttributes(false).ToList();

            return attributes.Any() ? attributes.FirstOrDefault()?.Description : member.ToString();
        }

or

public static string GetDescription(this object member)
        {
            var type = member.GetType();

            var attributes = type.GetCustomAttributes(false).ToList();

            return attributes.Any() ? attributes.FirstOrDefault()?.Description : member.GetType().Name;
        }

and enum should have desctription attribute. Like this:

public enum MyEnum
    {
        [Description("some-enum-value")]
        And,
        [Description("some-enum-value")]
        Or

    }

And than you can use your enum like this:

MyEnum.GetDescription(); //return "some-enum-value"
