README

The introduction of enums in PHP 8.1 allowed developers to define a closed set of values for classes, configuration, etc. Very helpful!

This library attempts to build on that a little by adding functionality for common use cases.

Usage

GetValues Returns an array of case values SomeTrait::getValues() Reference
Labels Allow user-defined labels and descriptions SomeTrait::SomeCase->label() or SomeTrait::SomeCase->describe() Reference
PickRandom Returns a randomly selected case from an enum SomeTrait::pickRandom() Reference
