About
A enum library for Python.
enum
A simple enum implementation that maps a "variable" to a constant.
RichEnum
An enum implementation that offers more functionality than a basic enum, hence the
name: RichEnum. Provided functionality include specifying a canonical name and a display name.
The canonical name should be used if you need to do a lookup or reference in your code.
The display name should be used if you need to display text to a user.
OrderedRichEnum
Exactly like RichEnum but also has an index specified for each enum value. Also, iteration over
an OrderedRichEnum will be sorted (ascending) by the enum value's index.

Example Usage
enum
.. code:: python
>>> from richenum import enum
>>> MY_ENUM = enum(FOO=1, BAR=2)
>>> MY_ENUM.FOO
1
>>> MY_ENUM.BAR
2
RichEnum
.. code:: python
>>> from richenum import RichEnum, RichEnumValue
>>> class MyRichEnum(RichEnum):
... FOO = RichEnumValue(canonical_name="foo", display_name="Foo")
... BAR = RichEnumValue(canonical_name="bar", display_name="Bar")
...
>>> MyRichEnum.FOO
RichEnumValue - canonical_name: 'foo' display_name: 'Foo'
>>> MyRichEnum.from_canonical("foo")
RichEnumValue - canonical_name: 'foo' display_name: 'Foo'
OrderedRichEnum
.. code:: python
>>> from richenum import OrderedRichEnum, OrderedRichEnumValue
>>> class MyOrderedRichEnum(OrderedRichEnum):
... FOO = OrderedRichEnumValue(index=1, canonical_name="foo", display_name="Foo")
... BAR = OrderedRichEnumValue(index=2, canonical_name="bar", display_name="Bar")
...
>>> MyOrderedRichEnum.FOO
OrderedRichEnumValue - idx: 1 canonical_name: 'foo' display_name: 'Foo'
>>> MyOrderedRichEnum.from_canonical("foo")
OrderedRichEnumValue - idx: 1 canonical_name: 'foo' display_name: 'Foo'
>>> MyOrderedRichEnum.from_index(1)
OrderedRichEnumValue - idx: 1 canonical_name: 'foo' display_name: 'Foo'

Starting with Python 3.4, there is a standard library for enumerations.
This class has a similar API, but is not directly compatible with that
class.
