Django REST EnumField

EnumField that uses python enums for Django REST Framework

Installation

pip install django-rest-enumfield

Usage

Use it as if its a ChoiceField:

import enum
from rest_enumfield import EnumField

class Color(enum.Enum):
   RED = "red"
   GREEN = "green"
   BLUE = "blue"

class SomeSerializer(Serializer):

   color = EnumField(choices=Color)

Additionally you can override choice name and value generation by providing to_choice or to_repr arguments:

class SomeSerializer(Serializer):

   color = EnumField(choices=Color, to_choice=lambda x: (x.value, x.name), to_repr=lambda x: x.value)

This will cause the enum's value instead of the name to be represented.

Thats it.
