Utilities

EnumUtils trait

Adds a set of helpers to any backed enum.

use Pentacore\LaravelUtils\Concerns\EnumUtils;

enum Status: string
{
    use EnumUtils;

    case Active = 'active';
    case Pending = 'pending';
    case Archived = 'archived';
}

Method	Description
Status::names()	Array of case names.
Status::values()	Array of backing values.
Status::array()	Associative array [value => name].
Status::validationRule()	Rule::in(values) for use in form requests / validators.
Status::iterator()	Generator keyed by case name.
Status::mapForSelect($withNull, $labelKey)	Sorted [label, value] list for select dropdowns.
Status::commaSeparatedValues()	Comma-separated string of values.
$case->asSlug()	URL-friendly slug of the value.
$case->toString()	Value cast to string.
$case->equals($value)	Strict comparison of value.

If a case implements a label() method, mapForSelect() will use it instead of the case name.
