Enum from String

Question

I have an Enum and a function to create it from a String because i couldn\'t find a built in way to do it

Answer 1

There are a couple of enums packages which allowed me to get just the enum string rather than the type.value string (Apple, not Fruit.Apple).

https://pub.dartlang.org/packages/built_value (this is more up to date)

https://pub.dartlang.org/packages/enums

void main() {
  print(MyEnum.nr1.index);            // prints 0
  print(MyEnum.nr1.toString());       // prints nr1
  print(MyEnum.valueOf("nr1").index); // prints 0
  print(MyEnum.values[1].toString())  // prints nr2
  print(MyEnum.values.last.index)     // prints 2
  print(MyEnum.values.last.myValue);  // prints 15
}
